Subject: [PATCH 0/3] perf/x86/pebs: various important fixes for PEBS
Date: Thu,  3 Mar 2016 20:50:39 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1457034642-21837-1-git-send-email-eranian@google.com> (raw)


This short patch series fixes several issues related to PEBS on Haswell
and later processors.

 - The HT corruption bug (HSD29) is fixed on Broadwell, there is no need
   to mark events 0xd0-0xd3 as exclusive. This was fixed for non-PEBS mode
   but not for PEBS mode.

 - On Haswell and later, there is a bug with the GLOBAL_OVF_STATUS bits
   reporting counter overflows for PEBS events. SDM says it should not
   but I ran into cases where bits 0-3 were set, causing double processing
   of the samples and samples missing the EXACT tag. See changelog

   Tested on Haswell, Broadwell, SkyLake

   Patch relative to tip.git

Stephane Eranian (3):
  perf/x86/intel: add definition for PT PMI bit
  perf/x86/pebs: add workaround for broken OVFL status on HSW
  perf/x86/pebs: add proper PEBS constraints for Broadwell
