Subject: [PATCH v8 11/14] perf/x86: save/restore LBR_SELECT on vcpu switching
Date:   Tue,  6 Aug 2019 15:16:11 +0800
Message-Id: <1565075774-26671-12-git-send-email-wei.w.wang@intel.com>
In-Reply-To: <1565075774-26671-1-git-send-email-wei.w.wang@intel.com>
References: <1565075774-26671-1-git-send-email-wei.w.wang@intel.com>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

The regular host lbr perf event doesn't save/restore the LBR_SELECT msr
during a thread context switching, because the LBR_SELECT value is
generated from attr.branch_sample_type and already stored in
event->hw.branch_reg (please see intel_pmu_setup_hw_filter), which
doesn't get lost during thread context switching.

The attr.branch_sample_type for the vcpu lbr event is deliberately set
to the user call stack mode to enable the perf core to save/restore the
lbr related msrs on vcpu switching. So the attr.branch_sample_type
essentially doesn't represent what the guest pmu driver will write to
LBR_SELECT. Meanwhile, the host lbr driver doesn't configure the lbr msrs,
including the LBR_SELECT msr, for the vcpu thread case, as the pmu driver
inside the vcpu will do that.

So for the vcpu case, add the LBR_SELECT save/restore to ensure what the
guest writes to the LBR_SELECT msr doesn't get lost during the vcpu context
switching.
