[PATCH RFC v2 17/17] KVM: x86/pmu: Adjust guest DS pebs reset counter values for mapped counter

From: Like Xu
Date: Sun Nov 08 2020 - 21:18:02 EST


The original PEBS reset counter value has been saved to pmc->reset_counter.

When the guest PEBS counter X is enabled, the reset value RST-x would be
written to guest DS reset field RST-y and it will be auto reloaded to the
real host counter Y which is mapped to the guest PEBS counter X during
this vm-entry period.

KVM would record each last host reset counter index field for each guest
PEBS counter and trigger the reset values rewrite once any entry in the
host-guest counter mapping table is changed before vm-entry.

The frequent changes in the mapping relationship should only happen when
perf multiplexes the counters with the default 1ms timer. The time cost
of adjusting the guest reset values will not exceed 1ms (13347ns on ICX),
and there will be no race with the multiplex timer to create a livelock.
