KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Save/restore SIAR and SDAR along with other PMU registers
Currently we are not saving and restoring the SIAR and SDAR registers in the PMU (performance monitor unit) on guest entry and exit. The result is that performance monitoring tools in the guest could get false information about where a program was executing and what data it was accessing at the time of a performance monitor interrupt. This fixes it by saving and restoring these registers along with the other PMU registers on guest entry/exit. This also provides a way for userspace to access these values for a vcpu via the one_reg interface. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Alexander Graf <agraf@suse.de>
