Subject: [GIT PULL] KVM: Selftests changes for 6.14
Date: Thu, 16 Jan 2025 17:07:15 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250117010718.2328467-5-seanjc@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250117010718.2328467-1-seanjc@google.com>

FYI, the "LLC references/misses" patch exposed a latent failure on SKX/CLX/CPL[*]
(who's brilliant idea was it to use "CPL" for a CPU code name on x86?).  Dapeng
is following up with the uarch folks to understand what's going on.  If -rc1 is
immiment and we don't have a fix, my plan is to have the test only assert that
the count is non-zero, and then go with a more precise fix if one arises.

  KVM: selftests: Add helpers for locally (un)blocking IRQs on x86 (2025-01-08 12:57:03 -0800)

----------------------------------------------------------------
KVM selftests changes for 6.14:

 - Misc cleanups and prep work.

 - Annotate _no_printf() with "printf" so that pr_debug() statements are
   checked by the compiler for default builds (and pr_info() when QUIET).

 - Attempt to whack the last LLC references/misses mole in the Intel PMU
   counters test by adding a data load and doing CLFLUSH{OPT} on the data
   instead of the code being executed.  The theory is that modern Intel CPUs
   have learned new code prefetching tricks that bypass the PMU counters.
