The PMU code suffers from a small defect where we assume that the event number provided by the guest is always 16 bit wide, even if the CPU only implements the ARMv8.0 architecture. This isn't really problematic in the sense that the event number ends up in a system register, cropping it to the right width, but still this needs fixing. In order to make it work, let's probe the version of the PMU that the guest is going to use. This is done by temporarily creating a kernel event and looking at the PMUVer field that has been saved at probe time in the associated arm_pmu structure. This in turn gets saved in the kvm structure, and subsequently used to compute the event mask that gets used throughout the PMU code. Signed-off-by: Marc Zyngier <maz@kernel.org>
