However this approach requires that each time a new event modifier is added to perf, all the perf drivers need to be modified to indicate that they don't support the attribute. This results in additional boiler-plate code common to many drivers that needs to be maintained. Furthermore the drivers are not consistent with regards to the error value they return when reporting unsupported attributes. This patchset allow PMU drivers to advertise their ability to exclude based on context via a new capability: PERF_PMU_CAP_EXCLUDE. This allows the perf core to reject requests for exclusion events where there is no support in the PMU. This is a functional change, in particular: - Some drivers will now additionally (but correctly) report unsupported exclusion flags. It's typical for existing userspace tools such as perf to handle such errors by retrying the system call without the unsupported flags. - Drivers that do not support any exclusion that previously reported -EPERM or -EOPNOTSUPP will now report -EINVAL - this is consistent with the majority and results in userspace perf retrying without exclusion. All drivers touched by this patchset have been compile tested. Changes from v1: - Changed approach from explicitly rejecting events in unsupporting PMU drivers to explicitly advertising a capability in PMU drivers that do support exclusion events - Added additional information to tools/perf/design.txt - Rename event_has_exclude_flags to event_has_any_exclude_flag and update commit log to reflect it's a function Andrew Murray (20): perf/doc: update design.txt for exclude_{host|guest} flags perf/core: add function to test for event exclusion flags perf/core: add PERF_PMU_CAP_EXCLUDE for exclusion capable PMUs perf/hw_breakpoint: perf/core: advertise PMU exclusion capability alpha: perf/core: remove unnecessary checks for exclusion arc: perf/core: advertise PMU exclusion capability arm: perf: conditionally advertise PMU exclusion capability arm: perf/core: remove unnecessary checks for exclusion drivers/perf: perf/core: remove unnecessary checks for exclusion drivers/perf: perf/core: remove unnecessary checks for exclusion drivers/perf: perf/core: advertise PMU exclusion capability mips: perf/core: advertise PMU exclusion capability powerpc: perf/core: advertise PMU exclusion capability powerpc: perf/core: remove unnecessary checks for exclusion s390: perf/events: advertise PMU exclusion capability sparc: perf/core: advertise PMU exclusion capability x86: perf/core: remove unnecessary checks for exclusion x86: perf/core remove unnecessary checks for exclusion x86: perf/core: advertise PMU exclusion capability perf/core: remove unused perf_flags arch/alpha/kernel/perf_event.c | 6 ------ arch/arc/kernel/perf_event.c | 1 + arch/arm/mach-imx/mmdc.c | 8 +------- arch/arm/mm/cache-l2x0-pmu.c | 8 -------- arch/mips/kernel/perf_event_mipsxx.c | 1 + arch/powerpc/perf/core-book3s.c | 1 + arch/powerpc/perf/core-fsl-emb.c | 1 + arch/powerpc/perf/hv-24x7.c | 9 --------- arch/powerpc/perf/hv-gpci.c | 9 --------- arch/powerpc/perf/imc-pmu.c | 18 ------------------ arch/s390/kernel/perf_cpum_cf.c | 1 + arch/s390/kernel/perf_cpum_sf.c | 2 ++ arch/sparc/kernel/perf_event.c | 1 + arch/x86/events/amd/ibs.c | 12 ------------ arch/x86/events/amd/iommu.c | 5 ----- arch/x86/events/amd/power.c | 9 +-------- arch/x86/events/amd/uncore.c | 5 ----- arch/x86/events/core.c | 2 ++ arch/x86/events/intel/bts.c | 2 +- arch/x86/events/intel/cstate.c | 8 +------- arch/x86/events/intel/pt.c | 4 +++- arch/x86/events/intel/rapl.c | 8 +------- arch/x86/events/intel/uncore.c | 8 -------- arch/x86/events/intel/uncore_snb.c | 8 +------- arch/x86/events/msr.c | 8 +------- drivers/perf/arm-cci.c | 9 --------- drivers/perf/arm-ccn.c | 5 +---- drivers/perf/arm_dsu_pmu.c | 8 +------- drivers/perf/arm_pmu.c | 15 +++++---------- drivers/perf/arm_spe_pmu.c | 3 ++- drivers/perf/hisilicon/hisi_uncore_pmu.c | 9 --------- drivers/perf/qcom_l2_pmu.c | 8 -------- drivers/perf/qcom_l3_pmu.c | 7 ------- drivers/perf/xgene_pmu.c | 5 ----- include/linux/perf_event.h | 10 ++++++++++ include/uapi/linux/perf_event.h | 2 -- kernel/events/core.c | 9 +++++++++ kernel/events/hw_breakpoint.c | 2 ++ tools/include/uapi/linux/perf_event.h | 2 -- tools/perf/design.txt | 4 ++++ 40 files changed, 54 insertions(+), 189 deletions(-)
