[PATCH 0/3] perf/x86: Fix perf_event_print_debug() on non-Intel PMUs

[Sandipan Das]

Petr Tesarik reported that reading MSR_ARCH_PERFMON_FIXED_CTR_CTRL
raises a #GP on AMD processors that support PerfMonV2, and proposed
skipping that register when no fixed counters are implemented [1].

However, perf_event_print_debug() also dumps the global control and
status registers whenever x86_pmu.version >= 2, and reads Intel
Architectural PerfMon MSRs to do so. That condition used to be
Intel-specific, but since commit 21d59e3e2c40 ("perf/x86/amd/core:
Detect PerfMonV2 support"), x86_pmu.version is also set to 2 on AMD
processors that support PerfMonV2, where none of those registers are
available.

The same reasoning therefore applies to the other registers read here,
so rather than special-casing each one or reinstating a vendor check,
this series makes the global register dump a vendor-specific operation.
