[PATCH 1/6] perf-events: Add support for supplementary eventregisters v5

From: Lin Ming
Date: Sun Feb 20 2011 - 11:57:08 EST


From: Andi Kleen <ak@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Intel Nehalem/Westmere have a special OFFCORE_RESPONSE event
that can be used to monitor any offcore accesses from a core.
This is a very useful event for various tunings, and it's
also needed to implement the generic LLC-* events correctly.

Unfortunately this event requires programming a mask in a separate
register. And worse this separate register is per core, not per
CPU thread.

This patch adds:
- Teaches perf_events that OFFCORE_RESPONSE needs extra parameters.
The extra parameters are passed by user space in the
perf_event_attr::event_extra field.
- Add support to the Intel perf_event core to schedule per
core resources. This adds fairly generic infrastructure that
can be also used for other per core resources.
The basic code has is patterned after the similar AMD northbridge
constraints code.

Thanks to Stephane Eranian who pointed out some problems
in the original version and suggested improvements.
