    KVM: x86: Add support for AMD Core Perf Extension in guest · c51eb52b
    Janakarajan Natarajan 提交于
    Add support for AMD Core Performance counters in the guest. The base
    event select and counter MSRs are changed. In addition, with the core
    extension, there are 2 extra counters available for performance
    measurements for a total of 6.
    
    With the new MSRs, the logic to map them to the gp_counters[] is changed.
    New functions are added to check the validity of the get/set MSRs.
    
    If the guest has the X86_FEATURE_PERFCTR_CORE cpuid flag set, the number
    of counters available to the vcpu is set to 6. It the flag is not set
    then it is 4.
