[Qemu-devel] [PATCH RFC 1/1] arm64: add an option to turn on/off vpmu su


From: Wei Huang
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH RFC 1/1] arm64: add an option to turn on/off vpmu support
Date: Thu, 28 Jul 2016 11:38:16 -0500

This patch adds a pmu=[on/off] option to enable/disable vpmu support
in guest vm. There are several reasons to justify this option. First
vpmu can be problematic for cross-migration between different SoC as
perf counters is architecture-dependent. It is more flexible to
have an option to turn it on/off. Secondly it matches the -cpu pmu
option in libivrt. This patch has been tested on both DT/ACPI modes.
