[PATCH v2 2/2] perf/x86: load latency event supports all PEBS counters
From: Stephane Eranian
Date: Fri Jun 27 2014 - 09:48:57 EST
This patch relaxes the event constraint for the Load
Latency PEBS event on SNB/IVB/HSW. It was limited to
counter 3 only for artificial reasons, i.e., to make
scheduling it easier. This event uses an extra MSR
which has to be shared among all events of a PMU.
In Linux, there is a sophisticated infratstructure
to handle shared regs, and we don't need to constrain
the event to one counter.
The advantage of this patch is that it makes it
possible to combine load latency and precise store
events without multiplexing.
