Looks like it tries to read MSR_LASTBRANCH_TOS MSR which kvm does not

availability of the MSR should be checked.


You are right about the MSR. The log file from the time of occurrence shows the following:

Jul 4 18:55:12 server kernel: [ 1528.618647] kvm: 3123: cpu1 kvm_set_msr_common: MSR_IA32_DEBUGCTLMSR 0x1, nop Jul 4 18:55:12 server kernel: [ 1528.619444] kvm: 3123: cpu1 unhandled rdmsr: 0x1c9


You can try

$ rmmod kvm-intel kvm
$ modprobe kvm ignore_msrs=1
$ modprobe kvm-intel

(or kvm-amd, as the case may be)

This will work around the issue, but the application may not function correctly.
