[PATCH v3 14/17] KVM: vmx/pmu: Limit pebs_interrupt_threshold in the guest DS area

From: Like Xu
Date: Mon Jan 04 2021 - 08:29:33 EST


If the host counter X is scheduled to the guest PEBS counter Y,
the guest ds pebs_interrupt_threshold field in guest DS area would
be changed to only ONE record before vm-entry which helps KVM
more easily and accurately handle the cross-mapping emulation
when the PEBS overflow PMI is generated.

In most cases, the guest counters would not be scheduled in a cross-mapped
way which means there is no need to change guest DS
pebs_interrupt_threshold and the applicable_counters fields in the guest
PEBS records are naturally correct. PEBS facility writes multiple PEBS
records into guest DS w/o interception and the performance is good.

AFAIK, we don't expect that changing the pebs_interrupt_threshold value
from the KVM side will break any guest PEBS drivers.
