Subject: Re: [PATCH 3/3 v6] s390/pai: Support CPU hotplug for PMU PAI
Date: Tue, 25 Aug 2026 07:37:08 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260825073708.E81331F000E9@smtp.kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260825072931.3738180-4-tmricht@linux.ibm.com>
> The command 'perf stat -e pai_crypto/CRYPTO_ALL/ -- <command>'
> crashes the kernel when CPUs are hotplug added during that run.
>
> Root cause is the missing allocation of per-CPU data structures
> for that new CPU. The allocation is dynamic and the first
> event that has task context creates such a structure for
> each online CPU. This is not sufficient. CPUs may be offline
> during event creation and can be set online during the

> # echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
> # perf stat -e cycles -i -- stress-ng -t10s --matrix X
> # sleep 1
> # echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
