SubjectRE: [PATCH 1/1] iommuv2/amd: Enable Performance Counters On Family 15h Models 10h-1Fh
Date
Hi Joerg,

I didn't want to expose the internals of the IOMMU, so I decided to export the function(s) so that the perf IOMMUv2 PMU can make call(s) into the IOMMU core to request PC resources. The perf_event_amd_iommuv2.h defines the prototype for the added PC functionality. I have the perf IOMMUv2 PMU working and counting IOMMUv2 PC events using this interface, but if you have a suggestion to make this implementation more robust, I will accommodate the suggestion. Also, if it would be helpful, I can submit the perf IOMMUv2 PMU patches.

BTW, I am resubmitting this patch since I caught a function signature error; was changing the code based on Boris's suggestion(s) and forgot to add the variable type (bool) concerning the 'is_write' parameter.

Hope all is well with you and the team; we miss you guys!

Regards,

Steve

How can the counters be used?
