    perf: Fix Pentium4 raw event validation · d038b12c
    Stephane Eranian 提交于
    This patch fixes some issues with raw event validation on
    Pentium 4 (Netburst) based processors.
    
    As I was testing libpfm4 Netburst support, I ran into two
    problems in the p4_validate_raw_event() function:
    
       - the shared field must be checked ONLY when HT is on
       - the binding to ESCR register was missing
    
    The second item was causing raw events to not be encoded
    correctly compared to generic PMU events.
    
    With this patch, I can now pass Netburst events to libpfm4
    examples and get meaningful results:
    
      $ task -e global_power_events:running:u  noploop 1
      noploop for 1 seconds
      3,206,304,898 global_power_events:running
