* KVM: x86: rdpmc emulation checks the counter incorrectlyNadav Amit2014-06-18
| | | | | | | | | | The rdpmc emulation checks that the counter (ECX) is not higher than 2, without taking into considerations bits 30:31 role (e.g., bit 30 marks whether the counter is fixed). The fix uses the pmu information for checking the validity of the pmu counter. Signed-off-by: Nadav Amit <namit@cs.technion.ac.il> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
* KVM: x86: Fix wrong/stuck PMU when guest does not use PMINadav Amit2014-04-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a guest enables a performance counter but does not enable PMI, the hypervisor currently does not reprogram the performance counter once it overflows. As a result the host performance counter is kept with the original sampling period which was configured according to the value of the guest's counter when the counter was enabled. Such behaviour can cause very bad consequences. The most distrubing one can cause the guest not to make any progress at all, and keep exiting due to host PMI before any guest instructions is exeucted. This situation occurs when the performance counter holds a very high value when the guest enables the performance counter. As a result the host's sampling period is configured to be very short. The host then never reconfigures the sampling period and get stuck at entry->PMI->exit loop. We encountered such a scenario in our experiments. The solution is to reprogram the counter even if the guest does not use PMI. Signed-off-by: Nadav Amit <namit@cs.technion.ac.il> Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com>
* perf, kvm: Support the in_tx/in_tx_cp modifiers in KVM arch perfmon emulation v5Andi Kleen2013-07-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | [KVM maintainers: The underlying support for this is in perf/core now. So please merge this patch into the KVM tree.] This is not arch perfmon, but older CPUs will just ignore it. This makes it possible to do at least some TSX measurements from a KVM guest v2: Various fixes to address review feedback v3: Ignore the bits when no CPUID. No #GP. Force raw events with TSX bits. v4: Use reserved bits for #GP v5: Remove obsolete argument Acked-by: Gleb Natapov <gleb@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
* pmu: prepare for migration supportPaolo Bonzini2013-04-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In order to migrate the PMU state correctly, we need to restore the values of MSR_CORE_PERF_GLOBAL_STATUS (a read-only register) and MSR_CORE_PERF_GLOBAL_OVF_CTRL (which has side effects when written). We also need to write the full 40-bit value of the performance counter, which would only be possible with a v3 architectural PMU's full-width counter MSRs. To distinguish host-initiated writes from the guest's, pass the full struct msr_data to kvm_pmu_set_msr.
