Subject: Re: x86_pmu_start WARN_ON.


and the perf_fuzzer overnight triggered this possibly related warning
in x86_pmu_stop()

I assume it's this code (the line numbers don't match up for some reason).

        if (__test_and_clear_bit(hwc->idx, cpuc->active_mask)) {
                x86_pmu.disable(event);
                cpuc->events[hwc->idx] = NULL;
                WARN_ON_ONCE(hwc->state & PERF_HES_STOPPED);
                hwc->state |= PERF_HES_STOPPED;
        }

so possibly also related to PERF_HES_STOPPED?
