[PATCH v1 09/13] perf/x86/amd: add idle hooks for branch sampling
From: Stephane Eranian
Date: Thu Sep 09 2021 - 03:59:25 EST
On AMD Fam19h Zen3, the branch sampling (BRS) feature must be disabled before entering low power
and re-enabled (if was active) when returning from low power. Otherwise, the NMI interrupt may
be held up for too long and cause problems. Stopping BRS will cause the NMI to be delivered if it
was held up.
This patch connects the branch sampling code to the perf_events idle callbacks.
