Subject: [PATCH v2 4/4] powerpc/perf/vpa-pmu: Avoid loading vpa-pmu driver during dump kernel
Date: Sat, 1 Mar 2025 23:53:10 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250301182310.6832-4-maddy@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250301182310.6832-1-maddy@linux.ibm.com>
vpa-pmu driver is used to collect latency metrics for host to guest
or guest to host context switches in a PowerVM KVM guest scenario.
These are enabled using CONFIG_VPA_PMU and when these are compiled
as built-in, add check for kdump and fadump kernel to avoids
loading them, since there are no commandline option to disable them.
