When running Linux inside a virtual machine you may see the following (Kernel v4.4.169):
intel_rapl: no valid rapl domains found in package 0
To resolve the issue we can simply instruct the kernel not to load the intel_rapl module:
[bash]echo blacklist intel_rapl >> /etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf[/bash]
Just update boot files (with the new configuration):
[bash]update-initramfs -u -k all[/bash]
