Subject: [PATCH] perf: arm_spe: Ensure trace is disabled when TRUNCATED flag is set
Date: Wed, 15 Oct 2025 19:23:37 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251015-arm_spe_fix_truncated_flag-v1-1-555e328cba05@arm.com> (raw)

The TRUNCATED flag can be set in the following cases:

 1. When data loss is detected (PMBSR_EL1.DL == 0b1).
 2. When arm_spe_perf_aux_output_begin() fails to find a valid limit
    because it runs out of free space.

Currently, only the first case invokes irq_work_run() to execute the
event disable callback, while the second case does not.

Move the call to irq_work_run() later with checking the TRUNCATED flag,
so that both cases are handled and redundant calls are avoided.
