Subject: [PATCH 1/1] perf/x86/intel: Fix wrong lbr_sel_mask
Date: Thu, 21 Apr 2016 02:30:10 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1461231010-4399-1-git-send-email-kan.liang@intel.com> (raw)
From: Kan Liang <kan.liang@intel.com>
This patch fixes an issue which starts from
'commit b16a5b52eb90 ("perf/x86: Add option to disable reading
branch flags/cycles")'. In this patch, lbr_sel_mask is used to mask
the lbr_select. But LBR_SEL_MASK doesn't include the bit for
LBR_CALL_STACK. So LBR call stack will never be set in lbr_select.
This patch corrects the LBR_SEL_MASK by including all valid bits in
LBR_SELECT. Also, the LBR_CALL_STACK bit is different as other bit in
LBR_SELECT. It does not operate in suppress mode, so it needs to be
specially handled in intel_pmu_setup_hw_lbr_filter.
