[PATCH 4.12 33/84] KVM: ARM64: fix phy counter access failure in guest.

Show all headers | View raw

4.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Hu Huajun <huhuajun@huawei.com>

commit 02d50cdaff36c135d222015cffdca3ff11d168ea upstream.

When reading the cntpct_el0 in guest with VHE (Virtual Host Extension)
enabled in host, the "Unsupported guest sys_reg access" error reported.
The reason is cnthctl_el2.EL1PCTEN is not enabled, which is expected
to be done in kvm_timer_init_vhe(). The problem is kvm_timer_init_vhe
is called by cpu_init_hyp_mode, and which is called when VHE is disabled.
This patch remove the incorrect call to kvm_timer_init_vhe() from
cpu_init_hyp_mode(), and calls kvm_timer_init_vhe() to enable
cnthctl_el2.EL1PCTEN in cpu_hyp_reinit().
