2017-03-01KVM: x86: never specify a sample period for virtualized in_tx_cp countersRobert O'Callahan
pmc_reprogram_counter() always sets a sample period based on the value of pmc->counter. However, hsw_hw_config() rejects sample periods less than 2^31 - 1. So for example, if a KVM guest does struct perf_event_attr attr; memset(&attr, 0, sizeof(attr)); attr.type = PERF_TYPE_RAW; attr.size = sizeof(attr); attr.config = 0x2005101c4; // conditional branches retired IN_TXCP attr.sample_period = 0; int fd = syscall(__NR_perf_event_open, &attr, 0, -1, -1, 0); ioctl(fd, PERF_EVENT_IOC_DISABLE, 0); ioctl(fd, PERF_EVENT_IOC_ENABLE, 0); the guest kernel counts some conditional branch events, then updates the virtual PMU register with a nonzero count. The host reaches pmc_reprogram_counter() with nonzero pmc->counter, triggers EOPNOTSUPP in hsw_hw_config(), prints "kvm_pmu: event creation failed" in pmc_reprogram_counter(), and silently (from the guest's point of view) stops counting events. We fix event counting by forcing attr.sample_period to always be zero for in_tx_cp counters. Sampling doesn't work, but it already didn't work and can't be fixed without major changes to the approach in hsw_hw_config().

Different pieces of code checked for vcpu->arch.apic being (non-)NULL, or used kvm_vcpu_has_lapic (more optimized) or lapic_in_kernel. Replace everything with lapic_in_kernel's name and kvm_vcpu_has_lapic's implementation. Reviewed-by: Radim Krčmář <rkrcmar@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
2015-06-23KVM: x86/vPMU: Define kvm_pmu_ops to support vPMU function dispatchWei Huang
This patch defines a new function pointer struct (kvm_pmu_ops) to support vPMU for both Intel and AMD. The functions pointers defined in this new struct will be linked with Intel and AMD functions later. In the meanwhile the struct that maps from event_sel bits to PERF_TYPE_HARDWARE events is renamed and moved from Intel specific code to kvm_host.h as a common struct.

2014-06-18KVM: x86: rdpmc emulation checks the counter incorrectlyNadav Amit
The rdpmc emulation checks that the counter (ECX) is not higher than 2, without taking into considerations bits 30:31 role (e.g., bit 30 marks whether the counter is fixed). The fix uses the pmu information for checking the validity of the pmu counter. Signed-off-by: Nadav Amit <namit@cs.technion.ac.il> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
2014-04-23KVM: x86: Fix wrong/stuck PMU when guest does not use PMINadav Amit
If a guest enables a performance counter but does not enable PMI, the hypervisor currently does not reprogram the performance counter once it overflows. As a result the host performance counter is kept with the original sampling period which was configured according to the value of the guest's counter when the counter was enabled. Such behaviour can cause very bad consequences. The most distrubing one can cause the guest not to make any progress at all, and keep exiting due to host PMI before any guest instructions is exeucted. This situation occurs when the performance counter holds a very high value when the guest enables the performance counter. As a result the host's sampling period is configured to be very short. The host then never reconfigures the sampling period and get stuck at entry->PMI->exit loop. We encountered such a scenario in our experiments. The solution is to reprogram the counter even if the guest does not use PMI. Signed-off-by: Nadav Amit <namit@cs.technion.ac.il> Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com>

2013-04-02pmu: prepare for migration supportPaolo Bonzini
In order to migrate the PMU state correctly, we need to restore the values of MSR_CORE_PERF_GLOBAL_STATUS (a read-only register) and MSR_CORE_PERF_GLOBAL_OVF_CTRL (which has side effects when written). We also need to write the full 40-bit value of the performance counter, which would only be possible with a v3 architectural PMU's full-width counter MSRs. To distinguish host-initiated writes from the guest's, pass the full struct msr_data to kvm_pmu_set_msr.
