The perf init code is going down the !perfmon route: if (!cpu_has(&boot_cpu_data, X86_FEATURE_ARCH_PERFMON)) { switch (boot_cpu_data.x86) { case 0x6: return p6_pmu_init(); case 0xf: return p4_pmu_init(); } return -ENODEV; } Based on Patch 2 you are expecting the guest to have this feature set. I've tried +perfmon and +arch_perfmon in the cpu definition for qemu-kvm (e.g., -cpu host,model=0,+perfmon) no luck David -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
