This patch series adds tests to validate VPMU functionality on x86. The tests write and read PMU MSRs to make sure that that they have been exposed correctly. The ultimate goal is to address security vulnerabilities, if any, that are vaguely mentioned in XSA-163 and make VPMU available to guests with reasonable caveats. Further testing is required to validate the MSR state save/restore functionality of the VPMU, concurrent usage of the counters by a number of guests and analyze if any other non-PMU MSRs have been exposed incorrectly Mohit Gambhir (2): xtf/vpmu: Add Intel PMU MSR addresses xtf/vpmu: MSR read/write tests for VPMU arch/x86/include/arch/msr-index.h | 11 + tests/vpmu/Makefile | 9 + tests/vpmu/main.c | 504 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 3 files changed, 524 insertions(+) create mode 100644 tests/vpmu/Makefile create mode 100644 tests/vpmu/main.c -- 2.9.3 _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.xen.org/xen-devel
