When a guest counter is configured as a PEBS counter through IA32_PEBS_ENABLE, a guest PEBS event will be reprogrammed by configuring a non-zero precision level in the perf_event_attr. The guest PEBS overflow PMI bit would be set in the guest GLOBAL_STATUS MSR when PEBS facility generates a PEBS overflow PMI based on guest IA32_DS_AREA MSR. Even with the same counter index and the same event code and mask, guest PEBS events will not be reused for non-PEBS events.

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.
