[PATCH] [RFC] kvm: x86: emulate APERF/MPERF registers

From: Li RongQing
Date: Fri Apr 24 2020 - 01:09:11 EST


Guest kernel reports a fixed cpu frequency in /proc/cpuinfo,
this is confused to user when turbo is enable, and aperf/mperf
can be used to show current cpu frequency after 7d5905dc14a
"(x86 / CPU: Always show current CPU frequency in /proc/cpuinfo)"
so we should emulate aperf mperf to achieve it

the period of aperf/mperf in guest mode are accumulated
as emulated value
