Commit 3fe3331bb285 ("perf/x86/amd: Add event map for AMD Family 17h"),
claimed L2 misses were unsupported, due to them not being found in its
referenced documentation, whose link has now moved [1].
That old documentation listed PMCx064 unit mask bit 3 as:
"LsRdBlkC: LS Read Block C S L X Change to X Miss."
and bit 0 as:
"IcFillMiss: IC Fill Miss"
We now have new public documentation [2] with improved descriptions, that
clearly indicate what events those unit mask bits represent:
Bit 3 now clearly states:
"LsRdBlkC: Data Cache Req Miss in L2 (all types)"
and bit 0 is:
"IcFillMiss: Instruction Cache Req Miss in L2."
So we can now add support for L2 misses in perf's genericised events as
PMCx064 with both the above unit masks.
