SubjectRe: [PATCH v14 00/11] KVM: x86/pmu: Guest Last Branch Recording Enabling
From
Date
Hi, like.

This patch set has been merged in 5.12 kernel tree so we can use LBR in
Guest.
Does it have requirement on CPU?
I can use lbr in guest on skylake and icelake, but cannot on IvyBridge.

I can see lbr formats(000011b) in perf_capabilities msr(0x345), but
there is still
error when I try.

$ perf record -b
Error:
cycles: PMU Hardware doesn't support sampling/overflow-interrupts. Try
'perf stat'

Host CPU:
Architecture: x86_64
