Subject: [PATCH v1 2/2] perf bpf_counter: Fix handling of cpumap fixing hybrid
Date: Wed, 1 Oct 2025 11:12:28 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251001181229.1010340-2-irogers@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251001181229.1010340-1-irogers@google.com>
Don't open evsels on all CPUs, open them just on the CPUs they
support. This avoids opening say an e-core event on a p-core and
getting a failure - achieve this by getting rid of the "all_cpu_map".
In install_pe functions don't use the cpu_map_idx as a CPU number,
translate the cpu_map_idx, which is a dense index into the cpu_map
skipping holes at the beginning, to a proper CPU number.
Before:
```
$ perf stat --bpf-counters -a -e cycles,instructions -- sleep 1
Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
<not supported> cpu_atom/cycles/
566,270,672 cpu_core/cycles/
<not supported> cpu_atom/instructions/
572,792,836 cpu_core/instructions/ # 1.01 insn per cycle
1.001595384 seconds time elapsed
```
After:
```
$ perf stat --bpf-counters -a -e cycles,instructions -- sleep 1
Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
443,299,201 cpu_atom/cycles/
1,233,919,737 cpu_core/cycles/
213,634,112 cpu_atom/instructions/ # 0.48 insn per cycle
2,758,965,527 cpu_core/instructions/ # 2.24 insn per cycle
1.001699485 seconds time elapsed
```
Fixes: 7fac83aaf2ee ("perf stat: Introduce 'bperf' to share hardware PMCs with BPF")
