Subject: [PATCH v2 0/4] kvm: x86/pmu: Introduce and test masked events
Date: Mon, 6 Jun 2022 17:52:45 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220606175248.1884041-1-aaronlewis@google.com> (raw)
This series introduces the concept of masked events to the pmu event
filter. Masked events can help reduce the number of events needed in the
events field of a pmu_event_filter by allowing a more generic matching
method to be used for the unit mask when filtering guest events in the
pmu. With masked events, if an eventsel should be restricted from the
guest, instead of having to add a new eventsel for every unit mask, one
encoded event can be added that matches all possible unit masks.
v1 -> v2
- Made has_invalid_event() static to fix warning.
- Fixed checkpatch.pl errors and warnings.
- Updated to account for KVM_X86_PMU_OP().
