commit 3837407c1aa1 upstream.
The specification says PMSWINC increments PMEVCNTR<n>_EL1 by 1 if PMEVCNTR<n>_EL0 is enabled and configured to count SW_INCR.
For PMEVCNTR<n>_EL0 to be enabled, we need both PMCNTENSET to be set for the corresponding event counter but we also need the PMCR.E bit to be set.
Fixes: 7a0adc7064b8 ("arm64: KVM: Add access handler for PMSWINC register") Signed-off-by: Eric Auger eric.auger@redhat.com Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # 4.14 only

This is a backport of 3837407c1aa1 ("KVM: arm64: pmu: Don't increment SW_INCR if PMCR.E is unset") which did not apply on 4.14-stable. Compared to the original patch __vcpu_sys_reg() is replaced by vcpu_sys_reg(). --- virt/kvm/arm/pmu.c | 3 +++ 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+)
