[PATCH v10 04/29] KVM: x86/pmu: Setup fixed counters' eventsel during PMU initialization

From: Sean Christopherson
Date: Tue Jan 09 2024 - 18:04:32 EST


Set the eventsel for all fixed counters during PMU initialization, the
eventsel is hardcoded and consumed if and only if the counter is supported,
i.e. there is no reason to redo the setup every time the PMU is refreshed.

Configuring all KVM-supported fixed counter also eliminates a potential
pitfall if/when KVM supports discontiguous fixed counters, in which case
configuring only nr_arch_fixed_counters will be insufficient (ignoring the
fact that KVM will need many other changes to support discontiguous fixed
counters).
