Subject: [PATCH 02/11] perf evsel: Handle ENODEV on default cycles event
Date: Mon, 22 Jul 2013 17:22:30 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1374524559-9839-3-git-send-email-acme@infradead.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1374524559-9839-1-git-send-email-acme@infradead.org>

From: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com>

Some systems (e.g., VMs on qemu-0.13 with the default vcpu model) report
an unsupported CPU model:

Performance Events: unsupported p6 CPU model 2 no PMU driver, software events only.

Subsequent invocations of perf fail with:

The sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 19 (No such device) for event (cycles).
/bin/dmesg may provide additional information.
No CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS=y kernel support configured?

Add ENODEV to the list of errno's to fallback to cpu-clock.
