Hi, like.
Does it have requirement on CPU if we want to use LBR in Guest?
I have tried linux-5.14-rc3 on different CPUs. And I can use lbr on
Haswell, Broadwell, skylake and icelake, but I cannot use lbr on IvyBridge.
Thanks!

This patch set has been merged in 5.12 kernel tree so we can use LBR
in Guest.

I can see lbr formats(000011b) in perf_capabilities msr(0x345), but
there is still
error when I try.
$ perf record -b
