Subject: [PATCH v3 08/22] perf: arm_pmuv3: Keep out of guest counter partition
Date: Thu, 26 Jun 2025 20:04:44 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250626200459.1153955-9-coltonlewis@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250626200459.1153955-1-coltonlewis@google.com>
If the PMU is partitioned, keep the driver out of the guest counter
partition and only use the host counter partition. Partitioning is
defined by the MDCR_EL2.HPMN register field and the maximum value KVM
can use is saved in cpu_pmu->hpmn_max. The range 0..HPMN-1 is
accessible by EL1 and EL0 while HPMN..PMCR.N is reserved for EL2.
Define some functions that take HPMN as an argument and construct
mutually exclusive bitmaps for testing which partition a particular
counter is in. Note that despite their different position in the
bitmap, the cycle and instruction counters are always in the guest
partition.
