Subject: [PATCH v3 2/9] perf/cxl: Clear stale event fields before reprogramming a counter
Date: Fri, 31 Jul 2026 16:28:20 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260731232827.401447-3-dave.jiang@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260731232827.401447-1-dave.jiang@intel.com>

cxl_pmu_event_start() ORs the event group id, event mask, edge and invert
selections into a configurable counter's config register without clearing
them first, and cxl_pmu_event_stop() leaves them set. Reuse the counter for
another event and the new selection lands on top of the old one, so the
counter counts the wrong events with stale edge and invert behaviour.

Fixes: 5d7107c72796 ("perf: CXL Performance Monitoring Unit driver")
Reported-by: sashiko-bot@kernel.org
Closes: https://sashiko.dev/#/patchset/20260715191454.459673-1-dave@stgolabs.net?part=1
Assisted-by: Claude:claude-opus-4-8

v3:
- Use FIELD_MODIFY() instead of masking then ORing (Jonathan).
