From: Borislav Petkov <bp@xxxxxxx> After commit: 672ff6cff80c ("KVM: x86: Raise #GP when guest vCPU do not support PMU") my AMD guests started #GPing like this: general protection fault: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP CPU: 1 PID: 4355 Comm: bash Not tainted 5.1.0-rc6+ #3 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.12.0-1 04/01/2014 RIP: 0010:x86_perf_event_update+0x3b/0xa0 with Code: pointing to RDPMC. It is RDPMC because the guest has the hardware watchdog CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_PERF enabled which uses perf. Instrumenting kvm_pmu_rdpmc() some, showed that it fails due to: if (!pmu->version) return 1; which the above commit added. Since AMD's PMU leaves the version at 0, that causes the #GP injection into the guest. Set pmu->version arbitrarily to 1 and move it above the non-applicable struct kvm_pmu members.
