Btw, Andy, this error message is completely useless - I
wanna know *where* the RDMSR in the code is, not point me at
ex_handler_rdmsr_unsafe().

IOW, I wanna convert the current thing into this:

[    0.028003] unchecked MSR access error: RDMSR from 0x1b0 at rIP: 
0xffffffff81026d9f
[    0.030343] ENERGY_PERF_BIAS: Set to 'normal', was 'performance'

Ok?

As to the error message, dear LKP friends, it happens because -cpu kvm64
on native Intel hands in CPUID bits of the host, i.e., if you do this in
the guest:

$ grep epb /proc/cpuinfo
flags           : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge mca cmov 
pat pse36 clflush mmx fxsr sse sse2 syscall nx lm constant_tsc nopl eagerfpu 
pni cx16 x2apic hypervisor epb
                                          ^^^

you should have "epb" there too which is among those bits.

I can reproduce the same issue on an AMD host too by booting my guest
with

"-cpu kvm64,vendor=GenuineIntel"

Paolo, Eduardo, question: can we hide certain CPUID bits from the guest
when booting with -cpu kvm64?

In general, is there a way I can set or clear arbitrary CPUID bits so
that the guest sees what I want it to see?

And I don't mean the predefined CPUID flags which you toggle with "+" or
"-" followed by flag name. Because -cpu kvm64,-epb doesn't work.

Is there a way to make this work or should we hack it into qemu so that
we are able to do that? I.e., something like

-cpu=kvm64,cpuid=leaf6_ecx_bit3=0,...

or something smarter. But you get the idea...

Thanks.
