[PATCH 3.16 096/136] perf/x86/amd/ibs: Handle erratum #420 only on the affected CPU family (10h)

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

 



3.16.80-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Kim Phillips <kim.phillips@xxxxxxx>

commit e431e79b60603079d269e0c2a5177943b95fa4b6 upstream.

This saves us writing the IBS control MSR twice when disabling the
event.

I searched revision guides for all families since 10h, and did not
find occurrence of erratum #420, nor anything remotely similar:
so we isolate the secondary MSR write to family 10h only.

Also unconditionally update the count mask for IBS Op implementations
that have read & writeable current count (CurCnt) fields in addition
to the MaxCnt field.  These bits were reserved on prior
implementations, and therefore shouldn't have negative impact.

 - Don't update the count mask; we don't use or define the CurCnt fields here
 - Adjust filename]
