Re: [PATCH 26/32] perf/x86/intel/cqm: integrate CQM cgroups with scheduler

From: David Carrillo-Cisneros
Date: Sat Apr 30 2016 - 13:51:08 EST


In all those cases perf sched_out will call intel_cqm_event_stop that
call pqr_cache_update_rmid that sets state->next_rmid to 0. The RMID 0
corresponds to the root monr in the RMID hierarchy.
