Could you give me an example call to say
arch__intr_simd_reg_bitmap_qwords where you say what the value of reg
is, what the expected value of qwords is and what the result will be?
Could you do it for say a model without AVX, a model with AVX, a model
with AVX512 and a model with APX.
I have looked at the code and read the changes to perf_event_attr
which is why I was confused by your saying that ZMM could be passed in
as a perf register number. I am confused as why when the
perf_event_attr has 2 qword length related variables this code seems
to be setting things up so that every register can have a qword
length. I'm confused what is happening with the return value of this
function. As values are being stored into global variables, and you
are saying they aren't a max value, then how does this impact the
setting up of multiple register sampling events?
Thanks,
Ian
