No. The event format is different on most POWER cpus, in particular it is different on Power6 and Power7, and will be different again on Power8. cheers

I don't see it. Hmm, patches 1..4,6 are in linux-tip and Arnaldo's trees but patch 5 is in neither. | | If not, please don't merge it. | | > The format of the event is the same for all POWER cpus at least in | > (Power6, Power7), so bulk of this change is common in the code common | > to POWER cpus. | | No. The event format is different on most POWER cpus, in particular it | is different on Power6 and Power7, and will be different again on | Power8. Sigh. The port of this patchset to Power6 has not started yet. But this patchset does work on Power7 correct ? If so, and we figure out what happened to patch 5, can we add a patch to to move the format code to power7-pmu.c ? Sukadev

I suspect Arnaldo was either waiting for an ACK from Ben, or was expecting Ben to take it? > | > The format of the event is the same for all POWER cpus at least in > | > (Power6, Power7), so bulk of this change is common in the code common > | > to POWER cpus. > | > | No. The event format is different on most POWER cpus, in particular it > | is different on Power6 and Power7, and will be different again on > | Power8. > > Sigh. The port of this patchset to Power6 has not started yet. It should hardly require a port, it's about five lines. But it doesn't matter for now. > But this patchset does work on Power7 correct ? Yes, and without it the rest of the series is essentially useless. So I guess it's better than nothing and we should get it in, we can fix it up later to work across different chips. Ben can you grab it, it's all arch/powerpc. cheers

[PATCH 5/6][v4]: perf: Create a sysfs entry for Power event format Create a sysfs entry, '/sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/format/event' which describes the format of a POWER cpu. The format of the event is the same for all POWER cpus at least in (Power6, Power7), so bulk of this change is common in the code common to POWER cpus. This code is based on corresponding code in x86. Changelog[v2]: [Jiri Osla] Use PMU_FORMAT_ATTR() rather than duplicating it.
