If we save/restore the values of aperf/mperf properly during vcpu migration
among different cores, is pinning still required?

pt-mode doesn't work doesn't work on AMD. See below.

^^^^^^^^^
The latest kernel moves svm-related files to arch/x86/kvm/svm
directory. You need to update your patches.

The bit setting for KVM_APERFMPERF_SOFT and KVM_APERFMPERF_PT is
incorrect. set_msr_interception() takes read/write as parameters. When
they are 1, it means svm doesn't intercept this specific MSR. So, you
code should look like:

if (guest_aperfmperf_soft(vcpu->kvm)) {
set_msr_interception(svm->msrpm, MSR_IA32_MPERF, 0, 0);
set_msr_interception(svm->msrpm, MSR_IA32_APERF, 0, 0);
} else if (guest_aperfmperf_pt(vcpu->kvm)) {
set_msr_interception(svm->msrpm, MSR_IA32_MPERF, 1, 0);
set_msr_interception(svm->msrpm, MSR_IA32_APERF, 1, 0);
}
