Similar behaviour is described for AArch32 on page G8-7022. Make it so. Fixes: c01d6a18023b ("KVM: arm64: pmu: Only handle supported event counters") Signed-off-by: Alexandru Elisei <alexandru.elisei@arm.com> --- Found by code inspection. Entertained the idea of restricting the number of bits in for_each_set_bit() to 31 since Linux (and the architecture, to some degree) treats the cycle count register as the 32nd event counter. Settled on this approach because I think it's clearer. arch/arm64/kvm/pmu-emul.c | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) diff --git a/arch/arm64/kvm/pmu-emul.c b/arch/arm64/kvm/pmu-emul.c index fd167d4f4215..ecc0d19c8cc1 100644 --- a/arch/arm64/kvm/pmu-emul.c +++ b/arch/arm64/kvm/pmu-emul.c @@ -578,6 +578,7 @@ void kvm_pmu_handle_pmcr(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu, u64 val) kvm_pmu_set_counter_value(vcpu, ARMV8_PMU_CYCLE_IDX, 0); if (val & ARMV8_PMU_PMCR_P) { + mask &= ~BIT(ARMV8_PMU_CYCLE_IDX); for_each_set_bit(i, &mask, 32) kvm_pmu_set_counter_value(vcpu, i, 0); } -- 2.32.0 _______________________________________________ kvmarm mailing list kvmarm@lists.cs.columbia.edu https://lists.cs.columbia.edu/mailman/listinfo/kvmarm
