Hi
There is a long-standing problem whereby running Intel PT on host and guest in Host/Guest mode, causes VM-Entry failure.
The motivation for this patch set is to provide a fix for stable kernels prior to the advent of the "Mediated Passthrough vPMU" patch set:
https://lore.kernel.org/kvm/20240801045907.4010984-1-mizhang@google.com/
which would render a large part of the fix unnecessary but likely not be suitable for backport to stable due to its size and complexity.
Ideally, this patch set would be applied before "Mediated Passthrough vPMU"
Note that the fix does not conflict with "Mediated Passthrough vPMU", it is just that "Mediated Passthrough vPMU" will make the code to stop and restart Intel PT unnecessary.
Any comments?
