Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] KVM: arm64: Check ID_AA64DFR0_EL1.PMUVer in pmu_visibility()
Date: Wed, 30 Sep 2026 21:18:34 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260930211834.2773546-3-coltonlewis@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260930211834.2773546-1-coltonlewis@google.com>
pmu_visibility() currently checks kvm_vcpu_has_pmu(), which only tests
whether the vCPU was initialized with KVM_ARM_VCPU_PMU_V3. If userspace
initializes a vCPU with KVM_ARM_VCPU_PMU_V3 and subsequently hides
FEAT_PMUv3 via ID_AA64DFR0_EL1.PMUVer, KVM continues to expose the PMU
system registers instead of emulating guest accesses as UNDEF.
Check ID_AA64DFR0_EL1.PMUVer directly via kvm_has_feat() in
pmu_visibility() so that PMU system registers are marked REG_HIDDEN
whenever FEAT_PMUv3 is not advertised in the ID registers.
