From 5c7df80e2ce4c954c80eb4ecf5fa002a5ff5d2d6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sean Christopherson seanjc@google.com Date: Thu, 11 Nov 2021 02:07:23 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] KVM: x86: Register perf callbacks after calling vendor's hardware_setup()
Wait to register perf callbacks until after doing vendor hardaware setup. VMX's hardware_setup() configures Intel Processor Trace (PT) mode, and a future fix to register the Intel PT guest interrupt hook if and only if Intel PT is exposed to the guest will consume the configured PT mode.
Delaying registration to hardware setup is effectively a nop as KVM's perf hooks all pivot on the per-CPU current_vcpu, which is non-NULL only when KVM is handling an IRQ/NMI in a VM-Exit path. I.e. current_vcpu will be NULL throughout both kvm_arch_init() and kvm_arch_hardware_setup().
