Subject: [PATCH kvm-unit-tests v2] pmu: fixes for Sandy Bridge hosts
Date: Thu, 30 May 2013 19:47:18 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1369936038-19242-1-git-send-email-pbonzini@redhat.com> (raw)

This patch includes two fixes for SB:

* the 3rd fixed counter ("ref cpu cycles") can sometimes report
  less than the number of iterations

* there is an 8th counter which causes out of bounds accesses
  to gp_event or check_counters_many's cnt array

There is still a bug in KVM, because the "pmu all counters-0"
test fails.  (It passes if you use any 6 of the 8 gp counters,
fails if you use 7 or 8).
