The PEBS-PDIR facility on Ice Lake server is supported on IA31_FIXED0 only. If the guest configures counter 32 and PEBS is enabled, the PEBS-PDIR facility is supposed to be used, in which case KVM adjusts attr.precise_ip to 3 and request host perf to assign the exactly requested counter or fail. The CPU model check is also required since some platforms may place the PEBS-PDIR facility in another counter index.

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.
