Merge tag 'kvm-x86-pmu-6.9' of https://github.com/kvm-x86/linux into …
…HEAD KVM x86 PMU changes for 6.9: - Fix several bugs where KVM speciously prevents the guest from utilizing fixed counters and architectural event encodings based on whether or not guest CPUID reports support for the _architectural_ encoding. - Fix a variety of bugs in KVM's emulation of RDPMC, e.g. for "fast" reads, priority of VMX interception vs #GP, PMC types in architectural PMUs, etc. - Add a selftest to verify KVM correctly emulates RDMPC, counter availability, and a variety of other PMC-related behaviors that depend on guest CPUID, i.e. are difficult to validate via KVM-Unit-Tests. - Zero out PMU metadata on AMD if the virtual PMU is disabled to avoid wasting cycles, e.g. when checking if a PMC event needs to be synthesized when skipping an instruction. - Optimize triggering of emulated events, e.g. for "count instructions" events when skipping an instruction, which yields a ~10% performance improvement in VM-Exit microbenchmarks when a vPMU is exposed to the guest. - Tighten the check for "PMI in guest" to reduce false positives if an NMI arrives in the host while KVM is handling an IRQ VM-Exit.
