Subject: [PATCH 19/23] KVM: x86/pmu: Always intercept GLOBAL_INUSE under PerfMon masking
Date: Fri, 21 Aug 2026 15:19:58 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260821222002.54907-20-zide.chen@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260821222002.54907-1-zide.chen@intel.com>
Unlike IA32_PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL, hardware does not filter GLOBAL_INUSE
reads based on the PerfMon mask at all, so always intercept this MSR
and filter out host-owned bits in KVM.
