Subject: [PATCH v1] perf pfm: Don't force loading of all PMUs
Date: Mon, 21 Jul 2025 18:34:49 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250722013449.146233-1-irogers@google.com> (raw)

Force loading all PMUs adds significant cost because DRM and other
PMUs are loaded, it should also not be required if the pmus__
functions are used.

Tested by run perf test, in particular the pfm related tests. Also
`perf list` is identical before and after.
