Subject: [PATCH V3 13/13] target/i386: Add Topdown metrics feature support
Date: Wed,  4 Mar 2026 10:07:12 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260304180713.360471-14-zide.chen@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260304180713.360471-1-zide.chen@intel.com>

From: Dapeng Mi <dapeng1.mi@linux.intel.com>

IA32_PERF_CAPABILITIES.PERF_METRICS_AVAILABLE (bit 15) indicates that
the CPU provides built-in support for TMA L1 metrics through
the PERF_METRICS MSR.  Expose it as a user-visible CPU feature
("perf-metrics"), allowing it to be explicitly enabled or disabled and
used with migratable guests.

Plumb IA32_PERF_METRICS through the KVM MSR get/put paths to be able
to save and restore this MSR.

Migrate IA32_PERF_METRICS MSR using a new subsection of
vmstate_msr_architectural_pmu.
