Subject: VPMU backports for 4.6
Date: Wed, 20 Jan 2016 11:12:55 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <569FB207.7000206@oracle.com> (raw)

There two patches need to be backported to 4.6

fb424bf x86/VPMU: don't allow any non-zero writes to MSR_IA32_PEBS_ENABLE
31af0d7 x86/VPMU: check more carefully which bits are allowed to be 
written to MSRs

(The second patch somewhat depends on
     00e248c x86/VPMU: support only versions 2 through 4 of 
architectural performance monitoring
so it may need to be backported as well).
