[PATCH] i386: Disable BTS and PEBS


From: Zhenzhong Duan
Subject: [PATCH] i386: Disable BTS and PEBS
Date: Mon, 18 Jul 2022 11:22:06 +0800

Since below KVM commit, KVM hided BTS as it's not supported yet.
b9181c8ef356 ("KVM: x86/pmu: Avoid exposing Intel BTS feature")

After below KVM commit, it gave control of MSR_IA32_MISC_ENABLES to userspace.
9fc222967a39 ("KVM: x86: Give host userspace full control of 
MSR_IA32_MISC_ENABLES")

So qemu takes the responsibility to hide BTS.
Without fix, we get below warning in guest kernel:

[] unchecked MSR access error: WRMSR to 0x1d9 (tried to write 
0x00000000000001c0) at rIP: 0xffffffffaa070644 (native_write_msr+0x4/0x20)
[] Call Trace:
[]  <TASK>
[]  intel_pmu_enable_bts+0x5d/0x70
[]  bts_event_add+0x77/0x90
[]  event_sched_in.isra.135+0x99/0x1e0
