perf/x86/intel: Use rdmsrl_safe() when initializing RAPL PMU
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
CPUs which should support the RAPL counters according to
Family/Model/Stepping may still issue #GP when attempting to access
the RAPL MSRs. This may happen when Linux is running under KVM and
we are passing-through host F/M/S data, for example. Use rdmsrl_safe
to first access the RAPL_POWER_UNIT MSR; if this fails, do not
attempt to use this PMU.

[ The patch also silently fixes another bug: rapl_pmu_init() didn't handle the memory alloc failure case previously. ]
