The current vPMU only supports Architecture Version 2. According to Intel SDM "17.4.7 Freezing LBR and Performance Counters on PMI", if IA32_DEBUGCTL.Freeze_LBR_On_PMI = 1, the LBR is frozen on the virtual PMI and the KVM would emulate to clear the LBR bit (bit 0) in IA32_DEBUGCTL. Also, guest needs to re-enable IA32_DEBUGCTL.LBR to resume recording branches.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
