For aux_output, I think it should be set 1 when the guest wants to enabled PEBS by Intel PT. attr.aux_output==1 means your group leader should be an intel_pt event for this to succeed. Luckily for this instance, perf_event_create_kernel_counter() doesn't actually check the attr.aux_output. Also, does 'bool pebs' mean PEBS-via-PT or just a PEBS counter? Or does it mean that in kvm it's the same thing? Regards, -- Alex
