[PATCH RFV v2 10/13] KVM: x86/pmu: Extend pmc_reprogram_counter() to create group events

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Current perf code creates a events group which contains a slots event
that acts as group leader and multiple metric events to support the
topdown perf metrics feature. To support the topdown metrics feature
in KVM and reduce the changes for perf system at the same time, we
follow this mature mechanism and create a events group in KVM. The
events group contains a slots event which claims the fixed counter 3
and act as group leader as perf system requires, and a virtual metrics
event which claims PERF_METRICS MSR. This events group would be
scheduled as a whole by the perf system.

Unfortunately the function pmc_reprogram_counter() can only create a
single event for every counter, so this change extends the function and
makes it have the capability to create a events group.
