Subject: [PATCH v3 00/11] KVM: selftests: Test the consistency of the PMU's CPUID and its features

Hi,

The KVM selftests show advantages over KUT in terms of finding defects through
flexible and varied guest settings from the KVM user space.

This patchset tests whether the Intel vPMU works properly with different Intel
CPUID.0xA configurations. It also provides test scaffolding and a sufficient
number of PMU test cases to subsequently offer adequate code coverage of AMD
vPMU or Intel complex features, such as LBR or PEBS, in selftests.

All patches have been tested on both Intel and AMD machines, with one exception
patch 11 "KVM: selftests: Test AMD Guest PerfMonV2" has not been tested on my
AMD machine, as does not support PerfMonV2.

Any feedback or suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Sincerely,
Jinrong Liang

Please note that following patch should be applied before this patch series:
