[RFC PATCH 0/5] perf: Sanitize perf directory structure, p1

[Borislav Petkov]

From: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de>

Hi guys,

so what better time to do that fun than during the holidays when no one
else is producing patches. :-)

Anyway, here's a part one conversion of the AMD perf events facilities.
Directory structure looks like this:

arch/x86/events/
|-- amd
|   |-- core.c
|   |-- ibs.c
|   |-- iommu.c
|   |-- iommu.h
|   `-- uncore.c
|-- core.c
`-- Makefile

and I've kept the churn at a mininum. Holler if something's not kosher.

Thanks.

Also, keep the churn at minimum by adjusting the include "perf_event.h"
when each file gets moved.

Hmm, the arch/x86/events directory does not exist yet, is it the plan
to move non-cpu event over there? It looks to be a better place for the
iommu events, are there more no-cpu events to move there?

Yeah, basically move all arch/x86/ *perf_event* stuff there.

So it is only now that I noticed that we have both 'core.c' and 'uncore.c', which 
is slightly bit confusing: the core.c's we have around the kernel denote core 
subsystem functionality - not CPU core functionality. If we have uncore.c around, 
confusion might ensue.

OTOH maybe it's not a big issue and we can just live with it. I'd hate to see 
main.c. Maybe rename 'uncore.c' to 'cpu_uncore.c'? OTOH that sounds a bit silly 
too. So maybe leave it as you named them.

Thanks,

	Ingo

Well, not doung anything should be ok because the *uncore* things would
go to the <vendor>/ subdir:

I.e.,

arch/x86/kernel/cpu/perf_event_amd_uncore.c
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/perf_event_intel_uncore.c
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/perf_event_intel_uncore.h
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/perf_event_intel_uncore_nhmex.c
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/perf_event_intel_uncore_snb.c
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/perf_event_intel_uncore_snbep.c

will become

arch/x86/events/amd/uncore.c
arch/x86/events/intel/uncore.c
arch/x86/events/intel/uncore.h
arch/x86/events/intel/uncore_nhmex.c
arch/x86/events/intel/uncore_snb.c
arch/x86/events/intel/uncore_snbep.c

and core.c will be in the upper dir arch/x86/events/

Ok, works for me. Got confused by your ascii art:

arch/x86/events/
|-- amd
|   |-- core.c
|   |-- ibs.c
|   |-- iommu.c
|   |-- iommu.h
|   `-- uncore.c
|-- core.c
`-- Makefile

which lists events/amd/core.c.

Thanks,

No, that's all correct. There is an amd/core.c thing:

 arch/x86/{kernel/cpu/perf_event_amd.c => events/amd/core.c}       | 2 +-

and there's also a arch/x86/kernel/cpu/perf_event_intel.c which would want to
become events/intel/core.c

Hmm, what do we call those then?

core.c is fine with me!
