[PATCH v2 1/5] perf/amd/ibs: Account interrupt for discarded samples
From: Ravi Bangoria
Date: Sun Feb 15 2026 - 23:23:26 EST
Add interrupt throttling accounting for below cases:
o IBS Op PMU: A software filter (in addition to the hardware filter)
drops samples whose load latency is below the user-specified
threshold.
o IBS Fetch PMU: Samples discarded due to the zero-RIP erratum (#1197).
Although these samples are discarded, the NMI cost is still incurred, so
they should be counted for interrupt throttling.
