Subject: [PATCH V2 2/2] arch/powerpc/perf: Update get_mem_data_src function to use saved values of sier and mmcra regs
Date: Sat, 18 Jan 2025 18:50:46 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250118132046.93872-2-atrajeev@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250118132046.93872-1-atrajeev@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

During performance monitor interrupt handling, the regs are setup using
perf_read_regs function. Here some of the pt_regs fields is overloaded.
Samples Instruction Event Register (SIER) is loaded into pt_regs,
overloading regs->dar. And regs->dsisr to store MMCRA (Monitor Mode
Control Register A) so that we only need to read these once on each
interrupt.

Update the isa207_get_mem_data_src function to use regs->dar instead of
reading from SPRN_SIER again. Also use regs->dsisr to read the mmcra
value
