Subject: [PATCH RFC 1/8] perf/core: Add *group_leader to perf_event_create_kernel_counter()
Date: Mon, 12 Dec 2022 20:58:37 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20221212125844.41157-2-likexu@tencent.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20221212125844.41157-1-likexu@tencent.com>
From: Like Xu <likexu@tencent.com>
Like syscalls users, kernel-space perf_event creators may also use group
counters abstraction to gain pmu functionalities, and an in-kernel counter
groups behave much like normal 'single' counters, following the group
semantics-based behavior.
No functional changes at this time. An example will be that KVM creates
Intel slot event as group leader and other topdown metric events to emulate
MSR_PERF_METRICS pmu capability for guests.
