From 3bf6215a1b30db7df6083c708caab3fe1a8e8abe Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexander Shishkin Date: Tue, 20 Sep 2016 18:48:11 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] perf/core: Limit matching exclusive events to one PMU An "exclusive" PMU is the one that can only have one event scheduled in at any given time. There may be more than one of such PMUs in a system, though, like Intel PT and BTS. It should be allowed to have one event for either of those inside the same context (there may be other constraints that may prevent this, but those would be hardware-specific). However, the exclusivity code is written so that only one event from any of the "exclusive" PMUs is allowed in a context. Fix this by making the exclusive event filter explicitly match two events' PMUs.
