Branch in main() depending on if the CPU is Intel or AMD. They are subject to vastly different requirements because the AMD PMU lacks many properties defined by the Intel PMU including the entire CPUID 0xa function where Intel stores all the PMU properties. AMD lacks this as well as any consistent notion of PMU versions as Intel does. Every feature is a separate flag and they aren't the same features as Intel.
Set up a VM for testing core AMD counters and ensure proper CPUID features are set.

vcpu_set_cpuid_feature(vcpu, X86_FEATURE_PERF_MON_V2);hmm, I think this might not be enough. So, when the baremetal machine supports Perfmon v2, this code is just testing v2. But we should be able to test anything below v2, ie., v1, v1 without core_ext. So, three cases need to be tested here: v1 with 4 counters; v1 with core_ext (6 counters); v2.
If, the machine running this selftest does not support v2 but it does support core extension, then we fall back to test v1 with 4 counters and v1 with 6 counters.
This should cover all cases the way I wrote it. I detect the number of counters in nr_core_counters(). That tells me if I am dealing with 4 or 6 and then I set the cpuid property based on that so I can read that number in later code instead of duplicating the logic.
right. in the current code, you set up the counters properly according to the hw capability. But the test can do more on a hw with perfmon v2, right? Because it can test multiple combinations of setup for a VM: say v1 + 4 counters and v1 + 6 counters etc. I am just following the style of this selftest on Intel side, in which they do a similar kind of enumeration of PMU version + PDCM capabilities. In each configuration, it will invoke a VM and do the test.
I could always inline nr_core_counters() to make this more obvious since it is only called in this function. It was one of the first bits of code I wrote working on this series and I assumed I would need to call it a bunch before I decided I could just set the cpuid property after calling it once.
