      Revert "powerpc: Update g5_defconfig" · 2c39bf49
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于
      This reverts commit b1acf1bb.
      
      Something went horribly wrong when I did savedefconfig, not sure what,
      but what's in there is busted so let's revert it.

      powerpc/perf: Use pmc_overflow() to detect rolled back events · 81331211
      Sukadev Bhattiprolu 提交于
      For certain speculative events on Power7, 'perf stat' reports far higher
      event count than 'perf record' for the same event.
      
      As described in following commit, a performance monitor exception is raised
      even when the the performance events are rolled back.
      
              commit 0837e324
              Author: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org>
              Date:   Wed Mar 9 14:38:42 2011 +1100
      
      perf_event_interrupt() records an event only when an overflow occurs. But
      this check for overflow is a simple 'if (val < 0)'.
      
      Because the events are rolled back, this check for overflow fails and the
      event is not recorded. perf_event_interrupt() later uses pmc_overflow() to
      detect the overflow and resets the counters and the events are lost completely.
      
      To properly detect the overflow of rolled back events, use pmc_overflow()
      even when recording events.
      
      To reproduce:
              $ cat strcpy.c
              #include <stdio.h>
              #include <string.h>
              main()
              {
                      char buf[256];
      
                      alarm(5);
                      while(1)
                              strcpy(buf, "string1");
              }
      
              $ perf record -e r20014 ./strcpy
              $ perf report -n > report.1
              $ perf stat -e r20014 > report.2
              # Compare report.1 and report.2
