SubjectRe: [PATCH 1/4] perf: Add comment about current state of PERF_MEM_LVL_* namespace and remove an extra line
From
Date
Hi,
Sorry I missed to update correct version details.

Link to the previous patch-set, where discussion related to addition of
new data source encoding field 'mem_hops' happened:

https://lkml.org/lkml/2021/9/4/37

Changelog:

- Rather then adding new macros for L2.1/L3.1 (same chip, different
core) entries as part of field lvlnum, we are introducing new field
called 'mem_hops' which can be used to get hops
level data(intra-chip/package or inter-chip/off-package details).
As suggested by Peter Zijlstra.

- Using OnChip to denote data accesses from 'another core of same chip'
is not too clear. Update it to 'remote core, same chip' as pointed by
Michael Ellerman.

- Update the fix patch of correcting data source encodings to use new
added field 'mem_hops'.

Thanks,
Kajol Jain
