[PATCH] perf/x86/vlbr: Add c->flags to vlbr event constraints

From: Like Xu <hidden>
Date: 2021-11-03 09:17:28
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: performance events subsystem, the rest, x86 architecture (32-bit and 64-bit) · Maintainers: Peter Zijlstra, Ingo Molnar, Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo, Namhyung Kim, Linus Torvalds, Thomas Gleixner, Borislav Petkov, Dave Hansen

From: Like Xu <redacted>

Just like what we do in the x86_get_event_constraints(), the
PERF_X86_EVENT_LBR_SELECT flag should also be propagated
to event->hw.flags so that the host lbr driver can save/restore
MSR_LBR_SELECT for the special vlbr event created by KVM or BPF.

Reported-by: Wanpeng Li <redacted>
Fixes: 097e4311cda9 ("perf/x86: Add constraint to create guest LBR event without hw counter")
