[PATCH v1 29/51] perf vendor events intel: Refresh skylakex metrics
From: Ian Rogers
Date: Sun Feb 19 2023 - 04:35:50 EST
Update the skylakex events from 1.28 to 1.29 and metrics to TMA
version 4.5. Generation was done using
https://github.com/intel/perfmon.
Notable changes are TMA info metrics are renamed from their node name
to be lower case and prefixed by tma_info_, MetricThreshold
expressions are added, "Sample with" documentation is added to many
TMA metrics, smi_cost and transaction metric groups are added
replicating existing hard coded metrics in stat-shadow.

Instead; a sequence of instructions to perform the computation on the Denormals is injected into the pipeline.
