+Architectures: x86
+Parameters: args[0] whether feature should be enabled or not
+            args[1] pointer to the userspace memory to load the lbr stack info
+
+The lbr stack info is described by
+struct x86_perf_lbr_stack {
+	unsigned int	nr;
+	unsigned int	tos;
+	unsigned int	from;
+	unsigned int	to;
+	unsigned int	info;
+};
+
+@nr: number of lbr stack entries
+@tos: index of the top of stack msr
+@from: index of the msr that stores a branch source address
+@to: index of the msr that stores a branch destination address
+@info: index of the msr that stores lbr related flags
+
+Enabling this capability allows guest accesses to the lbr feature. Otherwise,
+#GP will be injected to the guest when it accesses to the lbr related msrs.
+
+After the feature is enabled, before exiting to userspace, kvm handlers should
+fill the lbr stack info into the userspace memory pointed by args[1].
