[PATCH v7 17/20] KVM: arm64: Add vCPU device attr to partition the PMU

Mon May 4 14:18:10 PDT 2026
Add a new PMU device attr to enable the partitioned PMU for a given
VM. This capability can be set when the PMU is initially configured
before the vCPU starts running and is allowed where PMUv3 and VHE are
supported and the host driver was configured with
arm_pmuv3.reserved_host_counters.
The enabled capability is tracked by the new flag
KVM_ARCH_FLAG_PARTITION_PMU_ENABLED.
