Subject: [RFC 1/2] perf/pmu: Allow PMU providers to override system-wide security settings
Date: Fri, 17 Nov 2017 13:57:22 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171117135723.22235-1-tvrtko.ursulin@linux.intel.com> (raw)

From: Tvrtko Ursulin <tvrtko.ursulin@intel.com>

To allow system administrators finer-grained control over security
settings, we add an optional pmu->is_privileged(pmu, event) callback
which is consulted when unprivileged system-wide uncore event collection
is disabled.
