From ddee87f208b6229d2910dd5930c87089dc56c87e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Will Deacon Date: Thu, 25 Feb 2010 15:04:14 +0100 Subject: ARM: 5959/1: ARM: perf-events: request PMU interrupts with IRQF_NOBALANCING If IRQ balancing is used on a multicore ARM system, PMU interrupt lines may be relocated onto CPUs other than the one causing the counter overflow. This can result in misattribution of events to the wrong core and, in the case that the CPU handling the interrupt has not experience counter overflow, the interrupt can be disabled because the handler returns IRQ_NONE. This patch adds the IRQF_NOBALANCING flag to the request_irq call in perf_events.c.

This means that the top bit of an event ID is ignored, so counting branch misses (id=0x10) and ISBs (id=0x90) give the same results. This patch sets the event selection mask to the correct value of 0xff.
