Subject: [PATCH] perf/x86/intel: Don't disable "intel_bts" around "intel" event batching
Date: Thu, 15 Sep 2016 11:22:33 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160915082233.11065-1-alexander.shishkin@linux.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <alpine.DEB.2.20.1609141244500.10174@macbook-air>
At the moment, intel_bts events get disabled from intel PMU's disable
callback, which includes event scheduling transactions of said PMU,
which have nothing to do with intel_bts events.
We do want to keep intel_bts events off inside the PMI handler to
avoid filling up their buffer too soon.
This patch moves intel_bts enabling/disabling directly to the PMI
handler.
