[PATCH v1] KVM: arm64: PMU: Restore the guest's EL0 event counting after migration

[PATCH v1] KVM: arm64: PMU: Restore the guest's EL0 event counting after migration

[Reiji Watanabe]

Currently, with VHE, KVM enables the EL0 event counting for the
guest on vcpu_load() or KVM enables it as a part of the PMU
register emulation process, when needed.  However, in the migration
case (with VHE), the same handling is lacking.  So, enable it on the
first KVM_RUN with VHE (after the migration) when needed.

It wasn't completely clear to me how the migration case was affected
by this until I started digging into the call stack:

At load-time, the PMCR_EL0 effects haven't been propagated yet (the
events haven't been created, as this is what kvm_pmu_handle_pmcr()
does on first run). So there is an ordering inversion between
kvm_pmu_handle_pmcr() and kvm_vcpu_pmu_restore_guest().

Moving the latter call into the former fixes the issue, completely
emulating an extra write to PMCR_EL0.

I think it would be worth capturing some of the above in the commit
message so that it doesn't get lost...

With the nitpicking above addressed, and should this go into 6.3 as a
fix:

Reviewed-by: Marc Zyngier <maz@kernel.org>

I can otherwise take it into 6.4, depending on what Oliver decides to
do.

Thanks,

	M.

I agree with that. I will add the explanation in the commit message,
and will post v2.
