From cc1790cf541553263bda024295d7600c7cd7c45d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Zijlstra Date: Thu, 21 May 2015 10:57:17 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] perf/x86: Improve HT workaround GP counter constraint The (SNB/IVB/HSW) HT bug only affects events that can be programmed onto GP counters, therefore we should only limit the number of GP counters that can be used per cpu -- iow we should not constrain the FP counters. Furthermore, we should only enfore such a limit when there are in fact exclusive events being scheduled on either sibling.
