Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 5.4 13/14] perf/x86/intel: Check PEBS status correctly
Date: Sat, 12 Dec 2020 11:08:30 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201212160831.2335172-13-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20201212160831.2335172-1-sashal@kernel.org>

From: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com>

[ Upstream commit fc17db8aa4c53cbd2d5469bb0521ea0f0a6dbb27 ]

The kernel cannot disambiguate when 2+ PEBS counters overflow at the
same time. This is what the comment for this code suggests.  However,
I see the comparison is done with the unfiltered p->status which is a
copy of IA32_PERF_GLOBAL_STATUS at the time of the sample. This
register contains more than the PEBS counter overflow bits. It also
includes many other bits which could also be set.
