Subject: [PATCH 6/6] KVM: selftests: x86: Add svm_pmu_hg_test for HG_ONLY bits
Date: Wed, 21 Jan 2026 14:54:04 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260121225438.3908422-7-jmattson@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260121225438.3908422-1-jmattson@google.com>
Add a selftest to verify KVM correctly virtualizes the AMD PMU Host-Only
(bit 41) and Guest-Only (bit 40) event selector bits across all relevant
SVM state transitions.
For both Guest-Only and Host-Only counters, verify that:
1. SVME=0: counter counts (HG_ONLY bits ignored)
2. Set SVME=1: counter behavior changes based on HG_ONLY bit
3. VMRUN to L2: counter behavior switches (guest vs host mode)
4. VMEXIT to L1: counter behavior switches back
5. Clear SVME=0: counter counts (HG_ONLY bits ignored again)
Also confirm that setting both bits is the same as setting neither bit.
