The vPMU uses GUEST_LBR_IN_USE_IDX (bit 58) in 'pmu->pmc_in_use' to
indicate whether a guest LBR event is still needed by the vcpu. If the
vcpu no longer accesses LBR related registers within a scheduling time
slice, and the enable bit of LBR has been unset, vPMU will treat the
guest LBR event as a bland event of a vPMC counter and release it
as usual. Also, the pass-through state of LBR records msrs is cancelled.

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.
