Subject: [PATCH v4 00/38] Mediated vPMU 4.0 for x86
With joint effort from the upstream KVM community, we come up with the
4th version of mediated vPMU for x86. We have made the following changes
on top of the previous RFC v3.
v3 -> v4
- Rebase whole patchset on 6.14-rc3 base.
- Address Peter's comments on Perf part.
- Address Sean's comments on KVM part.
* Change key word "passthrough" to "mediated" in all patches
* Change static enabling to user space dynamic enabling via KVM_CAP_PMU_CAPABILITY.
* Only support GLOBAL_CTRL save/restore with VMCS exec_ctrl, drop the MSR
save/retore list support for GLOBAL_CTRL, thus the support of mediated
vPMU is constrained to SapphireRapids and later CPUs on Intel side.
* Merge some small changes into a single patch.
- Address Sandipan's comment on invalid pmu pointer.
- Add back "eventsel_hw" and "fixed_ctr_ctrl_hw" to avoid to directly
manipulate pmc->eventsel and pmu->fixed_ctr_ctrl.
Testing (Intel side):
- Perf-based legacy vPMU (force emulation on/off)
* Kselftests pmu_counters_test, pmu_event_filter_test and
vmx_pmu_caps_test pass.
* KUT PMU tests pmu, pmu_lbr, pmu_pebs pass.
* Basic perf counting/sampling tests in 3 scenarios, guest-only,
host-only and host-guest coexistence all pass.
- Mediated vPMU (force emulation on/off)
* Kselftests pmu_counters_test, pmu_event_filter_test and
vmx_pmu_caps_test pass.
* KUT PMU tests pmu, pmu_lbr, pmu_pebs pass.
* Basic perf counting/sampling tests in 3 scenarios, guest-only,
host-only and host-guest coexistence all pass.
- Failures. All above tests passed on Intel Granite Rapids as well
except a failure on KUT/pmu_pebs.
* GP counter 0 (0xfffffffffffe): PEBS record (written seq 0)
is verified (including size, counters and cfg).
* The pebs_data_cfg (0xb500000000) doesn't match with the
effective MSR_PEBS_DATA_CFG (0x0).
* This failure has nothing to do with this mediated vPMU patch set. The
failure is caused by Granite Rapids supported timed PEBS which needs
extra support on Qemu and KUT/pmu_pebs. These extra support would be
sent in separate patches later.
Testing (AMD side):
- Kselftests pmu_counters_test, pmu_event_filter_test and
vmx_pmu_caps_test all pass
- legacy guest with KUT/pmu:
* qmeu option: -cpu host, -perfctr-core
* when set force_emulation_prefix=1, passes
* when set force_emulation_prefix=0, passes
- perfmon-v1 guest with KUT/pmu:
* qmeu option: -cpu host, -perfmon-v2
* when set force_emulation_prefix=1, passes
* when set force_emulation_prefix=0, passes
- perfmon-v2 guest with KUT/pmu:
* qmeu option: -cpu host
* when set force_emulation_prefix=1, passes
* when set force_emulation_prefix=0, passes
- perf_fuzzer (perfmon-v2):
* fails with soft lockup in guest in current version.
* culprit could be between 6.13 ~ 6.14-rc3 within KVM
* Series tested on 6.12 and 6.13 without issue.
Note: a QEMU series is needed to run mediated vPMU v4:
