Subject: [PATCH v2 5/5] powerpc/perf/hv-24x7: Use PMU_TXN_READ interface
The 24x7 counters in Powerpc allow monitoring a large number of counters
simultaneously. They also allow reading several counters in a single
HCALL so we can get a more consistent snapshot of the system.
Use the PMU's transaction interface to monitor and read several event
counters at once. The idea is that users can group several 24x7 events
into a single group of events. We use the following logic to submit
the group of events to the PMU and read the values:
pmu->start_txn() // Initialize before first event
for each event in group
pmu->read(event); // Queue each event to be read
pmu->commit_txn() // Read/update all queued counters
The ->commit_txn() also updates event counts in the respective perf_event
objects. The perf subsystem can then directly get the event counts from
the perf_event and can avoid submitting a new ->read() request to the PMU.
Thanks to input from Peter Zijlstra.
