[Patch v4 08/13] perf/x86/intel: Update dyn_constranit base on PEBS event precise level

From: Dapeng Mi
Date: Fri Jun 20 2025 - 03:31:11 EST


arch-PEBS provides CPUIDs to enumerate which counters support PEBS
sampling and precise distribution PEBS sampling. Thus PEBS constraints
should be dynamically configured base on these counter and precise
distribution bitmap instead of defining them statically.

Update event dyn_constraint base on PEBS event precise level.
