[PATCH] KVM: x86/pmu: Distinguish EVENTSEL bitmasks for uniform event creation and filtering

From: Like Xu
Date: Thu Feb 10 2022 - 05:26:17 EST


From: Like Xu <likexu@xxxxxxxxxxx>

The current usage of EVENTSEL_* macro is a mess in the KVM context. Partly
because we have a conceptual ambiguity when choosing to create a RAW or
HARDWARE event: when bits other than HARDWARE_EVENT_MASK are set,
the pmc_reprogram_counter() will use the RAW type.

By introducing the new macro AMD64_EXTRA_EVENTSEL_EVENT to simplify,
the following three issues can be addressed in one go:

- the 12 selection bits are used as comparison keys for allow or deny;
- NON_HARDWARE_EVENT_MASK is only used to determine if a HARDWARE
event is programmed or not, a 12-bit selected event will be a RAW event;
(jmattson helped report this issue)
- by reusing AMD64_RAW_EVENT_MASK, the extra 4 selection bits (if set) are
passed to the perf correctly and not filtered out by X86_RAW_EVENT_MASK;.
