Subject: [PATCH V3 0/2] powerpc/perf: Add support for perf extended regs in powerpc
Date:   Wed, 20 May 2020 05:45:31 -0400

Precedence: bulk

Patch set to add support for perf extended register capability in
powerpc. The capability flag PERF_PMU_CAP_EXTENDED_REGS, is used to
indicate the PMU which support extended registers. The generic code
define the mask of extended registers as 0 for non supported architectures.

patch 1/2 defines this PERF_PMU_CAP_EXTENDED_REGS mask to output the
values of mmcr0,mmcr1,mmcr2 for POWER9. Defines `PERF_REG_EXTENDED_MASK`
at runtime which contains mask value of the supported registers under
extended regs.

Patch 2/2 adds extended regs to sample_reg_mask in the tool side to use
with `-I?` option.

  powerpc/perf: Add support for outputting extended regs in perf
    intr_regs
  tools/perf: Add perf tools support for extended register capability in
    powerpc

Changes from v2 -> v3
- Split kernel and tools side patches as suggested by Arnaldo
- Addressed review comment from Madhavan Srinivasn

Changes from v1 -> v2

- PERF_REG_EXTENDED_MASK` is defined at runtime in the kernel
based on platform. This will give flexibility in using extended
regs for all processor versions where the supported registers may differ.
- removed PERF_REG_EXTENDED_MASK from the perf tools side. Based on the
processor version(from PVR value), tool side will return the appropriate
extended mask
- Since tool changes can handle without a "PERF_REG_EXTENDED_MASK" macro,
dropped patch to set NO_AUXTRACE.
- Addressed review comments from Ravi Bangoria for V1
