Subject: [PATCH v4 0/9] KVM: selftests: Test the consistency of the PMU's CPUID and its features
Date: Mon, 11 Sep 2023 19:43:38 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230911114347.85882-1-cloudliang@tencent.com> (raw)

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.

These patches have been tested and have passed all test cases. AMD related tests
will be completed in the future, please consider merge these patches before that.

Any feedback or suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Sincerely,
Jinrong Liang

Changelog:

v4:
- Rebased to e2013f46ee2e(tag: kvm-x86-next-2023.08.25)
- Separate AMD-related tests.
- Moved static arrays to a new file lib/pmu.c and used more descriptive names
  like intel_pmu_arch_events, intel_pmu_fixed_pmc_events, and
  amd_pmu_arch_events. (Sean)
- Clean up pmu_event_filter_test.c by including pmu.h and removing
  unnecessary macros.
- Modified the "anti-feature" framework to extend this_pmu_has() and
  kvm_pmu_has() functions. (Sean)
- Refactor guest_measure_loop() function to simplify logic and improve
  readability. (Sean)
- Refactor guest_wr_and_rd_msrs() function to simplify logic and improve
  readability. (Sean)
- Use GUEST_ASSERT_EQ() directly instead of passing the counter to ucall and
  back to the host. (Sean)
- Refactor test_intel_oob_fixed_ctr() test method. (Sean)
- Avoid using half-baked helpers and optimize the code structure. (Sean)
- Update variable names for better readability and consistency. (Sean)
- Rename functions to better reflect their purpose. (Sean)
