In intel_pmu_refresh() nr_arch_gp_counters is set to '8', however, rdmsr_safe() for this MSR passes in kvm_init_msr_list() (but it fails for 0x18e..0x193!) so it stay in the list. get_gp_pmc(), however, checks it against nr_arch_gp_counters and returns a failure. Oh, btw, this is Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2603 v3 So apparently rdmsr_safe() check in kvm_init_msr_list() is not enough, for PMU MSRs we need to do extra. -- Vitaly
