[PATCH 08/12] perf/x86: Extend event update interface

From: kan . liang
Date: Thu Apr 04 2024 - 10:09:10 EST


From: Kan Liang <kan.liang@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The current event update interface directly reads the values from the
counter, but the values may not be the accurate ones users require. For
example, the sample read feature wants the counter value of the member
events when the leader event is overflow. But with the current
implementation, the read (event update) actually happens in the NMI
handler. There may be a small gap between the overflow and the NMI
handler. The new Intel PEBS counters snapshotting feature can provide
the accurate counter value in the overflow. The event update interface
has to be updated to apply the given accurate values.

Pass the accurate values via the event update interface. If the value is
not available, still directly read the counter.

For some cases, e.g., intel_update_topdown_event, there could be more
than one counter/register are read. Using u64 * rather than u64 as the
new parameter.
