KVM: x86: Update vPMCs when retiring branch instructions
When KVM retires a guest branch instruction through emulation, increment any vPMCs that are configured to monitor "branch instructions retired," and update the sample period of those counters so that they will overflow at the right time. Signed-off-by: Eric Hankland <ehankland@google.com> [jmattson: - Split the code to increment "branch instructions retired" into a separate commit. - Moved/consolidated the calls to kvm_pmu_trigger_event() in the emulation of VMLAUNCH/VMRESUME to accommodate the evolution of that code. ] Fixes: f5132b01 ("KVM: Expose a version 2 architectural PMU to a guests") Signed-off-by: Jim Mattson <jmattson@google.com> Message-Id: <20211130074221.93635-7-likexu@tencent.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
