Subject: [PATCH v2 03/16] KVM: x86/pmu: Rename reserved_bits to eventsel_rsvd in kvm_pmu
Date: Thu, 27 Aug 2026 15:37:42 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260827223755.143247-4-zide.chen@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260827223755.143247-1-zide.chen@intel.com>
This field stores the bits that are reserved in guest IA32_PERFEVTSELx
MSRs. Rename it to eventsel_rsvd to better reflect its purpose and to
align with other field names in struct kvm_pmu.
Opportunistically, replace the magic number 0xffffffff00200000ull with
macros.
No functional change intended.
Suggested-by: Dapeng Mi <dapeng1.mi@linux.intel.com>
Signed-off-by: Zide Chen <zide.chen@intel.com>
---
v2:
- Replace magic numbers in AMD pmu->eventsel_rsvd.
