If userspace has initialized a PMU (via > KVM_ARM_VCPU_PMU_V3_CTRL(KVM_ARM_VCPU_PMU_V3_INIT)) without setting > a PMU, then it is forbidden for userspace to set a PMU for the other > VCPUs. > > Is that what you had in mind? Exactly. This sidesteps any sort of odd behaviour by forcing userspace to pick a side. Thanks, M. -- Without deviation from the norm, progress is not possible. _______________________________________________ linux-arm-kernel mailing list linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-arm-kernel
