Stephane Eranian found a bug in that IBS' current Fetch counter was not being reset when the driver would write the new value to clear it along with the enable bit set, and found that adding an MSR write that would first disable IBS Fetch would make IBS Fetch reset its current count. Indeed, the PPR for AMD Family 17h Model 31h B0 55803 Rev 0.54 - Sep 12, 2019 states "The periodic fetch counter is set to IbsFetchCnt [...] when IbsFetchEn is changed from 0 to 1." Explicitly set IbsFetchEn to 0 and then to 1 when re-enabling IBS Fetch, so the driver properly resets the internal counter to 0 and IBS Fetch starts counting again. A family 15h machine tested does not have this problem, and the extra wrmsr is also not needed on Family 19h, so only do the extra wrmsr on families 16h through 18h.

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.
