[PATCH v2 1/4] perf pmu: Skip invalid hybrid pmu
From: Jin Yao
Date: Wed Jul 07 2021 - 21:41:13 EST
On hybrid platform, such as Alderlake, if atom CPUs are offlined,
the kernel still exports the sysfs path '/sys/devices/cpu_atom/' for
'cpu_atom' pmu but the file '/sys/devices/cpu_atom/cpus' is empty,
which indicates this is an invalid pmu.
Need to check and skip the invalid hybrid pmu.
Before:
# perf list
...
branch-instructions OR cpu_atom/branch-instructions/ [Kernel PMU event]
branch-instructions OR cpu_core/branch-instructions/ [Kernel PMU event]
branch-misses OR cpu_atom/branch-misses/ [Kernel PMU event]
branch-misses OR cpu_core/branch-misses/ [Kernel PMU event]
bus-cycles OR cpu_atom/bus-cycles/ [Kernel PMU event]
bus-cycles OR cpu_core/bus-cycles/ [Kernel PMU event]
...
The cpu_atom events are still displayed even if atom CPUs are offlined.
After:
# perf list
...
branch-instructions OR cpu_core/branch-instructions/ [Kernel PMU event]
branch-misses OR cpu_core/branch-misses/ [Kernel PMU event]
bus-cycles OR cpu_core/bus-cycles/ [Kernel PMU event]
...
Now only cpu_core events are displayed.
