Subject: [PATCH 0/6] KVM: x86/pmu: Add support for AMD HG_ONLY bits
Date: Wed, 21 Jan 2026 14:53:58 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260121225438.3908422-1-jmattson@google.com> (raw)
This series adds support for AMD's Host-Only (bit 41) and Guest-Only (bit
40) performance counter eventsel bits in KVM's mediated PMU passthrough
implementation.
These bits allow an nSVM-enabled guest to configure performance counters
that count only during L1 execution (Host-Only) or only during L2 execution
(Guest-Only).
KVM tracks which PMCs have Host-Only xor Guest-Only bits set, and updates
the hardware event selector ENABLE bit at the following state transitions:
- EFER.SVME changes: Enable/disable Guest-Only counters
- VMRUN: Disable Host-Only, enable Guest-Only counters
- VMEXIT: Enable Host-Only, disable Guest-Only counters
Jim Mattson (6):
KVM: x86/pmu: Introduce amd_pmu_set_eventsel_hw()
KVM: x86/pmu: Disable HG_ONLY events as appropriate for current vCPU
state
KVM: x86/pmu: Track enabled AMD PMCs with Host-Only xor Guest-Only
bits set
KVM: x86/pmu: [De]activate HG_ONLY PMCs at SVME changes and nested
transitions
KVM: x86/pmu: Allow HG_ONLY bits with nSVM and mediated PMU
KVM: selftests: x86: Add svm_pmu_hg_test for HG_ONLY bits
