Subject: [PATCH V5 06/10] KVM: x86/pmu: Forget PERFCTR_CORE if the min num of counters isn't met
Date: Mon, 10 Apr 2023 18:50:52 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230410105056.60973-7-likexu@tencent.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230410105056.60973-1-likexu@tencent.com>
From: Like Xu <likexu@tencent.com>
A sanity check on the number of counters enumerated by perf is added.
PERFCTR_CORE support is explicitly dropped if the min number isn't met.
E.g. if KVM needs 6 counters and perf says there are 4, then something
is wrong and enumerating 6 to a guest is only going to cause more issues.
Opportunistically, the kvm_cpu_cap_check_and_set() is applied to simplify
the host check before setting the PERFCTR_CORE flag.
