[PATCH v3 7/9] KVM: vmx/pmu: Add Arch LBR emulation and its VMCS field

From: Like Xu
Date: Wed Mar 03 2021 - 12:52:22 EST


New VMX controls bits for Arch LBR are added. When bit 21 in vmentry_ctrl
is set, VM entry will write the value from the "Guest IA32_LBR_CTL" guest
state field to IA32_LBR_CTL. When bit 26 in vmexit_ctrl is set, VM exit
will clear IA32_LBR_CTL after the value has been saved to the "Guest
IA32_LBR_CTL" guest state field.

To enable guest Arch LBR, KVM should set both the "Load Guest IA32_LBR_CTL"
entry control and the "Clear IA32_LBR_CTL" exit control bits. If these two
conditions cannot be met, KVM will clear the LBR_FMT bits and will not
expose the Arch LBR feature.

If Arch LBR is exposed on KVM, the guest should set both the ARCH_LBR CPUID
and the same LBR_FMT value as the host via MSR_IA32_PERF_CAPABILITIES to
enable guest Arch LBR.

KVM will bypass the host/guest x86 cpu model check and the records msrs can
still be pass-through to guest as usual and work like a model-specific LBR.
KVM is consistent with the host and does not support the LER entry.
