From 098f4c061ea10b777033b71c10bd9fd706820ee9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sean Christopherson seanjc@google.com Date: Sat, 28 Jan 2023 00:14:27 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] KVM: x86/pmu: Disallow legacy LBRs if architectural LBRs are available

Disallow enabling LBR support if the CPU supports architectural LBRs. Traditional LBR support is absent on CPU models that have architectural LBRs, and KVM doesn't yet support arch LBRs, i.e. KVM will pass through non-existent MSRs if userspace enables LBRs for the guest.
