[PATCH review for 4.9 44/50] powerpc/perf: Add restrictions to PMC5 in power9 DD1

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

 



From: Madhavan Srinivasan <maddy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 8d911904f3ce412b20874a9c95f82009dcbb007c ]

PMC5 on POWER9 DD1 may not provide right counts in all
sampling scenarios, hence use PM_INST_DISP event instead
in PMC2 or PMC3 in preference.
