[PATCH 2/2] KVM: vmx/pmu: Clear DEBUGCTLMSR_LBR bit on the debug breakpoint event

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



When the processor that support model-specific LBR generates a debug
breakpoint event, it automatically clears the LBR flag. This action
does not clear previously stored LBR stack MSRs. (Intel SDM 17.4.2)
