Subject: [PATCH 0/2] KVM: arm64: EL2 PMU reset handling fixes
Date: Mon, 17 Feb 2025 11:24:10 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250217112412.3963324-1-maz@kernel.org> (raw)

Joey reports that some of his PMU tests do not behave quite as
expected:

- MDCR_EL2.HPMN is set to 0 out of reset

- PMCR_EL0.P should reset all the counters when written from EL2

These couple of patches attempt to remedy the situation. Note that
they have only been compile-tested.

  KVM: arm64: Contextualise the handling of PMCR_EL0.P writes
