[PATCH] perf/x86: Fix exclusion of BTS and LBR for Goldmont

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

 



From: Andi Kleen <ak@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

An earlier patch allowed enabling PT and LBR at the same
time on Goldmont. However it also allowed enabling BTS and LBR
at the same time, which is still not supported. Fix this by
bypassing the check only for PT.

Marking for stable because this allows crashing kernels. Also
should be merged for 4.9.

Fixes: ccbebba4c6bf ("erf/x86/intel/pt: Bypass PT vs. LBR exclusivity if the core supports it")
