In create_perf_event(), has_chain_evtype() is used and a 64b sample
period would be chosen even if the counters are disjoined (since the odd
is disabled). We would need to use pmc_is_chained() instead.
With perf_events, the check of whether the odd register is enabled is
properly done (create_perf_event). Then I understand whenever there is a
change in enable state or type we delete the previous perf event and
re-create a new one. Enable state check just is missing for SW_INCR.
Some other questions:
- do we need a perf event to be created even if the counter is not
enabled? For instance on counter resets, create_perf_events get called.
- also actions are made for counters which are not implemented. loop
until ARMV8_PMU_MAX_COUNTERS. Do you think it is valuable to have a
bitmask of supported counters stored before pmu readiness?
I can propose such changes if you think they are valuable.
Thanks
