Subject: [PATCH] KVM: x86/pmu: Fix type length error when reading pmu->fixed_ctr_ctrl
Date: Tue, 23 Jan 2024 22:12:20 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240123221220.3911317-1-mizhang@google.com> (raw)

Fix type length error since pmu->fixed_ctr_ctrl is u64 but the local
variable old_fixed_ctr_ctrl is u8. Truncating the value leads to
information loss at runtime. This leads to incorrect value in old_ctrl
retrieved from each field of old_fixed_ctr_ctrl and causes incorrect code
execution within the for loop of reprogram_fixed_counters(). So fix this
type to u64.

Fixes: 76d287b2342e ("KVM: x86/pmu: Drop "u8 ctrl, int idx" for reprogram_fixed_counter()")
