Subject: [PATCH v2 3/5] KVM: arm64: pmu: Set the CHAINED attribute before creating the in-kernel event
Date: Tue,  8 Oct 2019 17:01:26 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20191008160128.8872-4-maz@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20191008160128.8872-1-maz@kernel.org>

The current convention for KVM to request a chained event from the
host PMU is to set bit[0] in attr.config1 (PERF_ATTR_CFG1_KVM_PMU_CHAINED).

But as it turns out, this bit gets set *after* we create the kernel
event that backs our virtual counter, meaning that we never get
a 64bit counter.

Moving the setting to an earlier point solves the problem.

Fixes: 80f393a23be6 ("KVM: arm/arm64: Support chained PMU counters")
