Subject: perf/x86: Keep LBR stack unchanged in host context for guest LBR event
From: Like Xu <like.xu@linux.intel.com>

From: Like Xu <like.xu@linux.intel.com>

When a guest wants to use the LBR stack, its hypervisor creates a guest
LBR event and let host perf schedules it. A new 'int guest_lbr_enabled'
field in the 'struct cpu_hw_events', is marked as true when perf adds
a guest LBR event and marked as false on deletion.

The LBR stack msrs are accessible to the guest when its guest LBR event
is scheduled in by the perf subsystem. Before scheduling this event out,
we should avoid host changes on IA32_DEBUGCTLMSR or LBR_SELECT.
Otherwise, some unexpected branch operations may interfere with guest
behavior, pollute LBR records, and even cause host branch data leakage.
In addition, the intel_pmu_lbr_read() on the host is also avoidable.

To ensure that guest LBR records are not lost during the context switch,
the BRANCH_CALL_STACK flag should be configured in the 'branch_sample_type'
for any guest LBR event because the callstack mode could save/restore guest
unread LBR records with the help of intel_pmu_lbr_sched_task() naturally.

However, the regular host LBR perf event doesn't save/restore LBR_SELECT,
because it's configured in the LBR_enable() based on branch_sample_type.
So when a guest LBR is running, the guest LBR_SELECT may changes for its
own use and we have to support LBR_SELECT save/restore to ensure what the
guest LBR_SELECT value doesn't get lost during the context switching.
