Subject: [PATCH 06/21] perf: arm_pmuv3: Allocate counter indices from high to low
Date: Fri, 12 Jun 2026 19:28:54 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260612192909.1153907-7-coltonlewis@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260612192909.1153907-1-coltonlewis@google.com>

To minimize collisions between host and guest counters, allocate host
counters from high to low. How the pivot HPMN is defined to partition the counters gives the guest the low index counters.

Doing this with index math instead of defining a
for_each_set_bit_reverse macro is safe because cntr_mask is always a
dense range while the host is running.
