[PATCH v3 12/17] KVM: x86/pmu: Disable guest PEBS when counters are cross-mapped

From: Like Xu
Date: Mon Jan 04 2021 - 08:29:09 EST


KVM will check if a guest PEBS counter X is cross-mapped to the host
counter Y. In this case, the applicable_counter field in the guest PEBS
records is filled with the real host counter index(s) which is incorrect.

Currently, KVM will disable guest PEBS before vm-entry and the later
patches would do more emulations in the KVM to keep PEBS functionality
work as host, such as rewriting applicable_counter field in the guest
PEBS records buffer.

The cross-mapped check should be done right before vm-entry but after
local_irq_disable() since perf scheduler would rotate the pmc->perf_event
to another host counter or make the event into error state via hrtimer irq.
