Subject: [PATCH v3 00/22] ARM64 PMU Partitioning
Date: Thu, 26 Jun 2025 20:04:36 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250626200459.1153955-1-coltonlewis@google.com> (raw)

This series creates a new PMU scheme on ARM, a partitioned PMU that
allows reserving a subset of counters for more direct guest access,
significantly reducing overhead. More details, including performance
benchmarks, can be read in the v1 cover letter linked below.

v3:

* Return to using one kernel command line parameter for reserved host
  counters, but set the default value meaning no partitioning to -1 so
  0 isn't ambiguous. Adjust checks for partitioning accordingly.

* Move the function kvm_pmu_partition_supported() back out of the
  driver to avoid subbing has_vhe in 32-bit ARM code.

* Fix the kernel test robot build failures, one with KVM and no PMU,
  and one with PMU and no KVM.

* Scan entire series to remove vestigial changes and update comments.

v2:
