Commit Message

Madhavan Srinivasan Feb. 26, 2021, 6:50 a.m. UTC
Introduce code to support the checking of attr.config* for
values which are reserved for a given platform.
Performance Monitoring Unit (PMU) configuration registers
have fields that are reserved and specific value to bit field
as reserved. For ex., MMCRA[61:62] is Randome Sampling Mode (SM)
and value of 0b11 to this field is reserved.

Writing a non-zero values in these fields or writing invalid
value to bit fields will have unknown behaviours.

Patch adds a generic call-back function "check_attr_config"
in "struct power_pmu", to be called in event_init to
check for attr.config* values for a given platform.
"check_attr_config" is valid only for raw event type.

I'd reword to "some specific values for bit fields are reserved".

s/Randome/Random/
This occurs here, and below, and in patch 2/2.

Suggest: Writing non-zero or invalid values in these fields
will have unknown behaviors. (or "behaviours" ;-)
