powerpc/perf/hv-24x7: Dont create sysfs event files for dummy events
The hv_24x7 performance monitoring unit creates a list of supported events from the event catalog obtained via HCALL. The hv_24x7 catalog could also contain invalid or dummy events with names like RESERVED*. These events do not have any hardware counters backing them. Add a check to string compare the event names to filter such events out. Result on power9 machine: Before this patch: ..... hv_24x7/PM_XLINK2_OUT_ODD_CYC,chip=?/ [Kernel PMU event] hv_24x7/PM_XLINK2_OUT_ODD_DATA_COUNT,chip=?/ [Kernel PMU event] hv_24x7/PM_XLINK2_OUT_ODD_TOTAL_UTIL,chip=?/ [Kernel PMU event] hv_24x7/PM_XTS_ATR_DEMAND_CHECKOUT,chip=?/ [Kernel PMU event] hv_24x7/PM_XTS_ATR_DEMAND_CHECKOUT_MISS,chip=?/ [Kernel PMU event] hv_24x7/PM_XTS_ATSD_SENT,chip=?/ [Kernel PMU event] hv_24x7/PM_XTS_ATSD_TLBI_RCV,chip=?/ [Kernel PMU event] hv_24x7/RESERVED_NEST1,chip=?/ [Kernel PMU event] hv_24x7/RESERVED_NEST10,chip=?/ [Kernel PMU event] hv_24x7/RESERVED_NEST11,chip=?/ [Kernel PMU event] hv_24x7/RESERVED_NEST12,chip=?/ [Kernel PMU event] hv_24x7/RESERVED_NEST13,chip=?/ [Kernel PMU event] ...... dmesg: [ 0.000362] printk: console [hvc0] enabled [ 0.815452] hv-24x7: read 1530 catalog entries, created 537 event attrs (0 failures), 275 descs After this patch: ...... hv_24x7/PM_XLINK2_OUT_ODD_AVLBL_CYC,chip=?/ [Kernel PMU event] hv_24x7/PM_XLINK2_OUT_ODD_CYC,chip=?/ [Kernel PMU event] hv_24x7/PM_XLINK2_OUT_ODD_DATA_COUNT,chip=?/ [Kernel PMU event] hv_24x7/PM_XLINK2_OUT_ODD_TOTAL_UTIL,chip=?/ [Kernel PMU event] hv_24x7/PM_XTS_ATR_DEMAND_CHECKOUT,chip=?/ [Kernel PMU event] hv_24x7/PM_XTS_ATR_DEMAND_CHECKOUT_MISS,chip=?/ [Kernel PMU event] hv_24x7/PM_XTS_ATSD_SENT,chip=?/ [Kernel PMU event] hv_24x7/PM_XTS_ATSD_TLBI_RCV,chip=?/ [Kernel PMU event] hv_24x7/TOD,chip=?/ [Kernel PMU event] ...... dmesg: [ 0.000357] printk: console [hvc0] enabled [ 0.808592] hv-24x7: read 1530 catalog entries, created 509 event attrs (0 failures), 275 descs Signed-off-by: Kajol Jain <kjain@linux.ibm.com> [mpe: Simplify ignore_event(), minor change log formatting] Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20201228085204.18026-1-kjain@linux.ibm.com
