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).
