Subject: [PATCH v2] perf evsel amd: Fix IBS error message
Date: Mon, 26 Jun 2023 16:09:58 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230626103958.834-1-ravi.bangoria@amd.com> (raw)

AMD IBS can do per-process profiling[1] and is no longer restricted to
per-cpu or systemwide only. Remove stale error message. Also, checking
just exclude_kernel is not sufficient since IBS does not support any
privilege filters. So include all exclude_* checks. And finally, move
these checks under tools/perf/arch/x86/ from generic code.

Before:
  $ sudo ./perf record -e ibs_op//k -C 0
  Error:
  AMD IBS may only be available in system-wide/per-cpu mode.  Try
  using -a, or -C and workload affinity

After:
  $ sudo ./perf record -e ibs_op//k -C 0
  Error:
  AMD IBS doesn't support privilege filtering. Try again with
  exclude_{kernel|user|hv|idle|host|guest}=0.

v1->v2:
  - Check all exclude_* flags not just exclude_kernel
  - Move AMD specific checks under tools/perf/arch/x86/
