[PATCH v7 04/12] KVM/x86: intel_pmu_lbr_enable
From: Wei Wang
Date: Sun Jul 07 2019 - 22:07:21 EST
The lbr stack is architecturally specific, for example, SKX has 32 lbr
stack entries while HSW has 16 entries, so a HSW guest running on a SKX
machine may not get accurate perf results. Currently, we forbid the
guest lbr enabling when the guest and host see different lbr stack
entries or the host and guest see different lbr stack msr indices.
