If a user first sample a PEBS event on a fixed counter, then sample a
non-PEBS event on the same fixed counter on Icelake, it will trigger
spurious NMI. For example,
perf record -e 'cycles:p' -a
perf record -e 'cycles' -a
The error message for spurious NMI.
[June 21 15:38] Uhhuh. NMI received for unknown reason 30 on CPU 2.
[ +0.000000] Do you have a strange power saving mode enabled?
[ +0.000000] Dazed and confused, but trying to continue
The issue was introduced by the following commit:
commit 6f55967ad9d9 ("perf/x86/intel: Fix race in intel_pmu_disable_event()")
The commit moves the intel_pmu_pebs_disable() after
intel_pmu_disable_fixed(), which returns immediately.
The related bit of PEBS_ENABLE MSR will never be cleared for the fixed
counter. Then a non-PEBS event runs on the fixed counter, but the bit
on PEBS_ENABLE is still set, which trigger spurious NMI.
Check and disable PEBS for fixed counter after intel_pmu_disable_fixed().

Hi,
Could this fix be accepted?
Thanks
