Kajol Jain Sept. 20, 2022, 4:38 p.m. UTC
Based on getPerfCountInfo v1.018 documentation, some of the
hv_gpci events got deprecated for platforms firmware that
supports counter_info_version 0x8 or above.

Patch fixes the hv_gpci event list by adding a new attribute
group called "hv_gpci_event_attrs_v6" and a "EVENT_ENABLE"
macro to enable these events for platform firmware
that supports counter_info_version 0x6 or below.

Does this handle CPUs booted in compat mode?

ie. where the firmware is newer but the kernel is told to behave as if
the CPU is an older version - so cpu_has_feature() doesn't necessarily
match the underlying hardware.

Is there some reason the event list is populated based on the CPU
features rather than by calling the hypervisor and asking what version
is supported?

Please don't wrap the fixes tag.

Nice catch. Sorry I missed that part completely during internal review.

I will review the hcall doc again for that option.
