Subject: [PATCH v2 3/7] perf/amd/ibs: Support IBS_{FETCH|OP}_CTL2[Dis] to eliminate RMW race
Date: Mon, 16 Feb 2026 04:25:26 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260216042530.1546-4-ravi.bangoria@amd.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260216042530.1546-1-ravi.bangoria@amd.com>

The existing IBS_{FETCH|OP}_CTL MSRs combine control and status bits
which leads to RMW race between HW and SW:

  HW                               SW
  ------------------------         ------------------------------
                                   config = rdmsr(IBS_OP_CTL);
                                   config &= ~EN;
  Set IBS_OP_CTL[Val] to 1
  trigger NMI
                                   wrmsr(IBS_OP_CTL, config);
                                   // Val is accidentally cleared

Future hardware adds a control-only MSR, IBS_{FETCH|OP}_CTL2, which
provides a second-level "disable" bit (Dis). IBS is now:

  Enabled:  IBS_{FETCH|OP}_CTL[En] = 1 && IBS_{FETCH|OP}_CTL2[Dis] = 0
  Disabled: IBS_{FETCH|OP}_CTL[En] = 0 || IBS_{FETCH|OP}_CTL2[Dis] = 1

The separate "Dis" bit lets software disable IBS without touching any
status fields, eliminating the hardware/software race.
