Subject: [PATCH v6 1/9] target/i386: disable PerfMonV2 when PERFCORE unavailable
Date: Tue, 24 Jun 2025 00:43:20 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250624074421.40429-2-dongli.zhang@oracle.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250624074421.40429-1-dongli.zhang@oracle.com>
When the PERFCORE is disabled with "-cpu host,-perfctr-core", it is
reflected in in guest dmesg.
[ 0.285136] Performance Events: AMD PMU driver.
However, the guest CPUID indicates the PerfMonV2 is still available.
CPU:
Extended Performance Monitoring and Debugging (0x80000022):
AMD performance monitoring V2 = true
AMD LBR V2 = false
AMD LBR stack & PMC freezing = false
number of core perf ctrs = 0x6 (6)
number of LBR stack entries = 0x0 (0)
number of avail Northbridge perf ctrs = 0x0 (0)
number of available UMC PMCs = 0x0 (0)
active UMCs bitmask = 0x0
Disable PerfMonV2 in CPUID when PERFCORE is disabled.

Changed since v1:
- Use feature_dependencies (suggested by Zhao Liu).
Changed since v2:
- Nothing. Zhao and Xiaoyao may move it to x86_cpu_expand_features()
later.
