[PATCH 1/7] perf/x86/intel/uncore: Rename refcount fields and other cleanups
From: Zide Chen
Date: Tue May 12 2026 - 19:40:08 EST
Fix typo UNCORE_BOX_FLAG_INITIATED to UNCORE_BOX_FLAG_INITIALIZED.
Rename the 'id' parameter in uncore_box_{ref,unref}() to 'die' to
reflect its actual meaning and be consistent with other functions.
pmu->activeboxes is misleading because it does not decrement when the
PMU fails to register. Rename it to die_refcnt, reflecting that it
counts the number of dies with a box present, regardless of whether
the PMU is functioning.
Rename box->refcnt to box->cpu_refcnt to clarify that it tracks the
number of CPUs on the die with a corresponding PMU box present.
Remove the incorrect atomic_inc(&box->refcnt) from
uncore_pci_pmu_register(): PCI boxes are not tracked by cpu_refcnt,
and this call incorrectly increments it on a per-die basis.
