Hi Marc,

Had another look at the patch, comments below.

This is confusing the me. We have kvm->arch.pmuver set to the hardware PMU version
(as set by __armv8pmu_probe_pmu()), but we ignore it when reporting the PMU
version to the guest. Why do we do that? We limit the event number in
kvm_pmu_event_mask() based on the hardware PMU version, so even if we advertise
Armv8.4 PMU, support for all those extra events added by Arm8.1 PMU is missing (I
hope I understood the code correctly).

I looked at commit c854188ea010 ("KVM: arm64: limit PMU version to PMUv3 for
ARMv8.1") which changed read_id_reg() to report PMUv3 for Armv8.1 unconditionally,
and there's no explanation why PMUv3 for Armv8.1 was chosen instead of plain PMUv3
(PMUVer = 0b0100).

Thanks,

Alex
