[PATCH 1/2] perf/x86/amd/ibs: Fix reading of the IBS OpData register and thus precise RIP validity

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

 



The loop that reads all the IBS MSRs into *buf stopped one MSR short of
reading the IbsOpData register, which contains the RipInvalid status bit.

Fix the offset_max assignment so the MSR gets read, so the RIP invalid
evaluation is based on what the IBS h/w output, instead of what was
left in memory.
