[PATCH 24/32] perf/x86/intel/cqm: use PERF_INACTIVE_*_READ_* flags in CQM
From: David Carrillo-Cisneros
Date: Fri Apr 29 2016 - 00:48:50 EST
Use newly added pmu_event flags to:
- Allow thread events to be read from any CPU even if not in
ACTIVE state. Since inter-package values are polled, a thread's
occupancy is always:
local occupancy (read from hw) + remote occupancy (polled values)
- Allow cpu/cgroup events to be read from any CPU in the package where
they run. This potentially saves IPIs when the read function runs in the
same package but in a distinct CPU than the event.
Since reading will always return a new value and inherit_stats is not
supported (due to all children events sharing the same RMID), there is no
need to read during sched_out of an event.
