Commit aaf248848db50 ("perf/x86/msr: Add AMD IRPERF (Instructions
Retired) performance counter") added support for access to the
free-running counter via 'perf -e msr/irperf/', but when exercised,
we always get a 0 count:
BEFORE:
$ sudo perf stat -e instructions,msr/irperf/ true
Performance counter stats for 'true':
624,833 instructions
0 msr/irperf/
Simply set its enable bit - HWCR bit 30 - to make it start counting.
Enablement is restricted to all machines advertising IRPERF capability,
except those susceptible to an erratum that makes the IRPERF return
bad values.
That erratum occurs in Family 17h models 00-1fh [1], but not in F17h
models 20h and above [2].
AFTER (on a family 17h model 31h machine):
$ sudo perf stat -e instructions,msr/irperf/ true
Performance counter stats for 'true':
621,690 instructions
622,490 msr/irperf/

v3: Removed null stalled cycles per insn from perf example output,
since it got fixed, also address comments from Borislav Petkov:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/2/11/395
- rephrase commit text to not say "this patch".
- uploaded both rev. guides (and all public F17h PPRs)
to a new "Add AMD x86 documents for future reference"
bug, and reference that in a Link: tag.
- rename X86_BUG_AMD_E1054 -> X86_BUG_IRPERF
- add a full stop to a sentence in a comment
v2 got resent, adding Michael Petlan to cc. Original v2:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200121171232.28839-2-kim.phillips@xxxxxxx/
v2: Based on Andi Kleen's review:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200116040324.GI302770@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/
Add an amd_erratum_1054 and use cpu_has_bug infrastructure
instead of open-coding the {family,model} check.
