Subject: [PATCH] kvm: x86: ignore reads to perfctr msrs
Date: Tue, 30 Jun 2009 16:24:28 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1246359268-11327-1-git-send-email-amit.shah@redhat.com> (raw)

We ignore writes to the perfctr msrs. Ignore reads as well.

Kaspersky antivirus crashes Windows guests if it can't read
these MSRs.
