[PATCH v5 12/24] KVM: arm64: Use physical PMSELR for PMXEVTYPER if partitioned

From: Colton Lewis <hidden>
Date: 2025-12-09 20:52:40
Also in: kvm, kvmarm, linux-doc, linux-kselftest, linux-perf-users, lkml
Subsystem: arm64 port (aarch64 architecture), kernel virtual machine for arm64 (kvm/arm64), the rest · Maintainers: Catalin Marinas, Will Deacon, Marc Zyngier, Oliver Upton, Linus Torvalds

Because PMXEVTYPER is trapped and PMSELR is not, it is not appropriate
to use the virtual PMSELR register when it could be outdated and lead
to an invalid write. Use the physical register when partitioned.
