Subject: [PATCH v2 07/16] KVM: x86/pmu: Expose kvm_host_pmu to vendor modules
Date: Thu, 27 Aug 2026 15:37:46 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260827223755.143247-8-zide.chen@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260827223755.143247-1-zide.chen@intel.com>

kvm_host_pmu holds the unadulterated host PMU capabilities, which
can be used to compare against guest capabilities to determine whether
certain MSRs should be intercepted by KVM.

Exposing it directly avoids the need to introduce per-field accessors,
which would add boilerplate without hiding any implementation detail
worth encapsulating.

Opportunistically, fix typo "Unadultered" in the comment.
