The perf subsystem assumes that the counters of a PMU are per-CPU. So
the user space tool reads a counter from each CPU in the system wide
mode. However, many PMUs don't have a per-CPU counter. The counter is
effective for a scope, e.g., a die or a socket. To address this, a
cpumask is exposed by the kernel driver to restrict to one CPU to stand
for a specific scope. In case the given CPU is removed,
the hotplug support has to be implemented for each such driver.
The codes to support the cpumask and hotplug are very similar.
- Expose a cpumask into sysfs
- Pickup another CPU in the same scope if the given CPU is removed.
- Invoke the perf_pmu_migrate_context() to migrate to a new CPU.
- In event init, always set the CPU in the cpumask to event->cpu
Similar duplicated codes are implemented for each such PMU driver. It
would be good to introduce a generic infrastructure to avoid such
duplication.
5 popular scopes are implemented here, core, die, cluster, pkg, and
the system-wide. The scope can be set when a PMU is registered. If so, a
"cpumask" is automatically exposed for the PMU.
The "cpumask" is from the perf_online_<scope>_mask, which is to track
the active CPU for each scope. They are set when the first CPU of the
scope is online via the generic perf hotplug support. When a
corresponding CPU is removed, the perf_online_<scope>_mask is updated
accordingly and the PMU will be moved to a new CPU from the same scope
if possible.

In perf_adjust_period, we will first calculate period, and then use
this period to calculate delta. However, when delta is less than 0,
there will be a deviation compared to when delta is greater than or
equal to 0. For example, when delta is in the range of [-14,-1], the
range of delta = delta + 7 is between [-7,6], so the final value of
delta/8 is 0. Therefore, the impact of -1 and -2 will be ignored.
This is unacceptable when the target period is very short, because
we will lose a lot of samples.

The above results were tested on x86-64 qemu with KVM enabled using
test.c as test program. Ideally, we should have around 1500 samples,
but the previous algorithm had only about 500, whereas the modified
algorithm now has about 1400. Further more, the new version shows 1
sample per 0.001s, while the previous one is 1 sample per 0.002s.This
indicates that the new algorithm is more sensitive to small negative
values compared to old algorithm.

Use perf_allow_kernel() for 'pa_enable' (physical addresses),
'pct_enable' (physical timestamps) and context IDs. This means that
perf_event_paranoid is now taken into account and LSM hooks can be used,
which is more consistent with other perf_event_open calls. For example
PERF_SAMPLE_PHYS_ADDR uses perf_allow_kernel() rather than just
perfmon_capable().
This also indirectly fixes the following error message which is
misleading because perf_event_paranoid is not taken into account by
perfmon_capable():

The regressing commit is new in 6.10. It assumed that anytime event->prog
is set bpf_overflow_handler() should be invoked to execute the attached bpf
program. This assumption is false for tracing events, and as a result the
regressing commit broke bpftrace by invoking the bpf handler with garbage
inputs on overflow.
Prior to the regression the overflow handlers formed a chain (of length 0,
1, or 2) and perf_event_set_bpf_handler() (the !tracing case) added
bpf_overflow_handler() to that chain, while perf_event_attach_bpf_prog()
(the tracing case) did not. Both set event->prog. The chain of overflow
handlers was replaced by a single overflow handler slot and a fixed call to
bpf_overflow_handler() when appropriate. This modifies the condition there
to check event->prog->type == BPF_PROG_TYPE_PERF_EVENT, restoring the
previous behavior and fixing bpftrace.

Many of the the context reschedule users are of the form:
ctx_sched_out(.type = EVENT_TIME);
... modify context
ctx_resched();
With the idea that the whole reschedule happens with a single
time-stamp, rather than with each ctx_sched_out() advancing time and
ctx_sched_in() re-starting time, creating a non-atomic experience.
However, Kan noticed that since this completely stops time, it
actually looses a bit of time between the stop and start. Worse, now
that we can do partial (per PMU) reschedules, the PMUs that are not
scheduled out still observe the time glitch.
Replace this with:
ctx_time_freeze();
... modify context
ctx_resched();
With the assumption that this happens in a perf_ctx_lock() /
perf_ctx_unlock() pair.
The new ctx_time_freeze() will update time and sets EVENT_FROZEN, and
ensures EVENT_TIME and EVENT_FROZEN remain set, this avoids
perf_event_time_now() from observing a time wobble from not seeing
EVENT_TIME for a little while.
Additionally, this avoids loosing time between
ctx_sched_out(EVENT_TIME) and ctx_sched_in(), which would re-set the
timestamp.

Currently re-scheduling a context will reschedule all active PMUs for
that context, even if it is known only a single event is added.
Namhyung reported that changing this to only reschedule the affected
PMU when possible provides significant performance gains under certain

Therefore, allow partial context reschedules for a specific PMU, that

While the patch looks somewhat noisy, it mostly just propagates a new

This change allows events to use PERF_SAMPLE_READ with inherit
so long as PERF_SAMPLE_TID is also set. This enables sample based
profiling of a group of counters over a hierarchy of processes or
threads. This is useful, for example, for collecting per-thread
counters/metrics, event based sampling of multiple counters as a unit,
access to the enabled and running time when using multiplexing and so
on.
Prior to this, users were restricted to either collecting aggregate
statistics for a multi-threaded/-process application (e.g. with
"perf stat"), or to sample individual threads, or to profile the entire
system (which requires root or CAP_PERFMON, and may produce much more
data than is required). Theoretically a tool could poll for or otherwise
monitor thread/process creation and construct whatever events the user
is interested in using perf_event_open, for each new thread or process,
but this is racy, can lead to file-descriptor exhaustion, and ultimately
just replicates the behaviour of inherit, but in userspace.
This configuration differs from inherit without PERF_SAMPLE_READ in that
the accumulated event count, and consequently any sample (such as if
triggered by overflow of sample_period) will be on a per-thread rather
than on an aggregate basis.
The meaning of read_format::value field of both PERF_RECORD_READ and
PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE is changed such that if the sampled event uses this
new configuration then the values reported will be per-thread rather
than the global aggregate value. This is a change from the existing
semantics of read_format (where PERF_SAMPLE_READ is used without
inherit), but it is necessary to expose the per-thread counter values,
and it avoids reinventing a separate "read_format_thread" field that
otherwise replicates the same behaviour. This change should not break
existing tools, since this configuration was not previously valid and
was rejected by the kernel. Tools that opt into this new mode will need
to account for this when calculating the counter delta for a given
sample. Tools that wish to have both the per-thread and aggregate value
can perform the global aggregation themselves from the per-thread
values.
The change to read_format::value does not affect existing valid
perf_event_attr configurations, nor does it change the behaviour of
calls to "read" on an event descriptor. Both continue to report the
aggregate value for the entire thread/process hierarchy. The difference
between the results reported by "read" and PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE in this
new configuration is justified on the basis that it is not (easily)
possible for "read" to target a specific thread (the caller only has
the fd for the original parent event).

nr_pending counts the number of events in the context that
either pending_sigtrap or pending_work, but it is used
to prevent taking the fast path in perf_event_context_sched_out.
Renamed to reflect what it is used for, rather than what it
counts. This change allows using the field to track other
event properties that also require skipping the fast path
without possible confusion over the name.

Yu has a fix which I'll send along later via the hotfixes branch.
- In the series "mm: Avoid possible overflows in dirty throttling" Jan
Kara addresses a couple of issues in the writeback throttling code.
These fixes are also targetted at -stable kernels.
- Ryusuke Konishi's series "nilfs2: fix potential issues related to
reserved inodes" does that. This should actually be in the
mm-nonmm-stable tree, along with the many other nilfs2 patches. My bad.
- More folio conversions from Kefeng Wang in the series "mm: convert to
folio_alloc_mpol()"
- Kemeng Shi has sent some cleanups to the writeback code in the series
"Add helper functions to remove repeated code and improve readability of
cgroup writeback"
- Kairui Song has made the swap code a little smaller and a little
faster in the series "mm/swap: clean up and optimize swap cache index".
- In the series "mm/memory: cleanly support zeropage in
vm_insert_page*(), vm_map_pages*() and vmf_insert_mixed()" David
Hildenbrand has reworked the rather sketchy handling of the use of the
zeropage in MAP_SHARED mappings. I don't see any runtime effects here -
more a cleanup/understandability/maintainablity thing.
- Dev Jain has improved selftests/mm/va_high_addr_switch.c's handling of
higher addresses, for aarch64. The (poorly named) series is
"Restructure va_high_addr_switch".
- The core TLB handling code gets some cleanups and possible slight
optimizations in Bang Li's series "Add update_mmu_tlb_range() to
simplify code".
- Jane Chu has improved the handling of our
fake-an-unrecoverable-memory-error testing feature MADV_HWPOISON in the
series "Enhance soft hwpoison handling and injection".
- Jeff Johnson has sent a billion patches everywhere to add
MODULE_DESCRIPTION() to everything. Some landed in this pull.
- In the series "mm: cleanup MIGRATE_SYNC_NO_COPY mode", Kefeng Wang has
simplified migration's use of hardware-offload memory copying.
- Yosry Ahmed performs more folio API conversions in his series "mm:
zswap: trivial folio conversions".
- In the series "large folios swap-in: handle refault cases first",
Chuanhua Han inches us forward in the handling of large pages in the
swap code. This is a cleanup and optimization, working toward the end
objective of full support of large folio swapin/out.
- In the series "mm,swap: cleanup VMA based swap readahead window
calculation", Huang Ying has contributed some cleanups and a possible
fixlet to his VMA based swap readahead code.
- In the series "add mTHP support for anonymous shmem" Baolin Wang has
taught anonymous shmem mappings to use multisize THP. By default this
is a no-op - users must opt in vis sysfs controls. Dramatic
improvements in pagefault latency are realized.
- David Hildenbrand has some cleanups to our remaining use of
page_mapcount() in the series "fs/proc: move page_mapcount() to
fs/proc/internal.h".
- David also has some highmem accounting cleanups in the series
"mm/highmem: don't track highmem pages manually".
- Build-time fixes and cleanups from John Hubbard in the series
"cleanups, fixes, and progress towards avoiding "make headers"".
- Cleanups and consolidation of the core pagemap handling from Barry
Song in the series "mm: introduce pmd|pte_needs_soft_dirty_wp helpers
and utilize them".
- Lance Yang's series "Reclaim lazyfree THP without splitting" has
reduced the latency of the reclaim of pmd-mapped THPs under fairly
common circumstances. A 10x speedup is seen in a microbenchmark.
It does this by punting to aother CPU but I guess that's a win unless
all CPUs are pegged.
- hugetlb_cgroup cleanups from Xiu Jianfeng in the series
"mm/hugetlb_cgroup: rework on cftypes".
- Miaohe Lin's series "Some cleanups for memory-failure" does just that
thing.
- Is anyone reading this stuff? If so, email me!
- Someone other than SeongJae has developed a DAMON feature in Honggyu
Kim's series "DAMON based tiered memory management for CXL memory".
This adds DAMON features which may be used to help determine the
efficiency of our placement of CXL/PCIe attached DRAM.
- DAMON user API centralization and simplificatio work in SeongJae
Park's series "mm/damon: introduce DAMON parameters online commit
function".
- In the series "mm: page_type, zsmalloc and page_mapcount_reset()"
David Hildenbrand does some maintenance work on zsmalloc - partially
modernizing its use of pageframe fields.
- Kefeng Wang provides more folio conversions in the series "mm: remove
page_maybe_dma_pinned() and page_mkclean()".
- More cleanup from David Hildenbrand, this time in the series
"mm/memory_hotplug: use PageOffline() instead of PageReserved() for
!ZONE_DEVICE". It "enlightens memory hotplug more about PageOffline()
pages" and permits the removal of some virtio-mem hacks.
- Barry Song's series "mm: clarify folio_add_new_anon_rmap() and
__folio_add_anon_rmap()" is a cleanup to the anon folio handling in
preparation for mTHP (multisize THP) swapin.
- Kefeng Wang's series "mm: improve clear and copy user folio"
implements more folio conversions, this time in the area of large folio
userspace copying.
- The series "Docs/mm/damon/maintaier-profile: document a mailing tool
and community meetup series" tells people how to get better involved
with other DAMON developers. From SeongJae Park.
- A large series ("kmsan: Enable on s390") from Ilya Leoshkevich does
that.
- David Hildenbrand sends along more cleanups, this time against the
migration code. The series is "mm/migrate: move NUMA hinting fault
folio isolation + checks under PTL".
- Jan Kara has found quite a lot of strangenesses and minor errors in
the readahead code. He addresses this in the series "mm: Fix various
readahead quirks".
- SeongJae Park's series "selftests/damon: test DAMOS tried regions and
{min,max}_nr_regions" adds features and addresses errors in DAMON's self
testing code.
- Gavin Shan has found a userspace-triggerable WARN in the pagecache
code. The series "mm/filemap: Limit page cache size to that supported
by xarray" addresses this. The series is marked cc:stable.
- Chengming Zhou's series "mm/ksm: cmp_and_merge_page() optimizations
and cleanup" cleans up and slightly optimizes KSM.
- Roman Gushchin has separated the memcg-v1 and memcg-v2 code - lots of
code motion. The series (which also makes the memcg-v1 code
Kconfigurable) are
"mm: memcg: separate legacy cgroup v1 code and put under config
option" and
"mm: memcg: put cgroup v1-specific memcg data under CONFIG_MEMCG_V1"
- Dan Schatzberg's series "Add swappiness argument to memory.reclaim"
adds an additional feature to this cgroup-v2 control file.
- The series "Userspace controls soft-offline pages" from Jiaqi Yan
permits userspace to stop the kernel's automatic treatment of excessive
correctable memory errors. In order to permit userspace to monitor and
handle this situation.
- Kefeng Wang's series "mm: migrate: support poison recover from migrate
folio" teaches the kernel to appropriately handle migration from
poisoned source folios rather than simply panicing.
- SeongJae Park's series "Docs/damon: minor fixups and improvements"
does those things.
- In the series "mm/zsmalloc: change back to per-size_class lock"
Chengming Zhou improves zsmalloc's scalability and memory utilization.
- Vivek Kasireddy's series "mm/gup: Introduce memfd_pin_folios() for
pinning memfd folios" makes the GUP code use FOLL_PIN rather than bare
refcount increments. So these paes can first be moved aside if they
reside in the movable zone or a CMA block.
- Andrii Nakryiko has added a binary ioctl()-based API to /proc/pid/maps
for much faster reading of vma information. The series is "query VMAs
from /proc/<pid>/maps".
- In the series "mm: introduce per-order mTHP split counters" Lance Yang
improves the kernel's presentation of developer information related to
multisize THP splitting.
- Michael Ellerman has developed the series "Reimplement huge pages
without hugepd on powerpc (8xx, e500, book3s/64)". This permits
userspace to use all available huge page sizes.
- In the series "revert unconditional slab and page allocator fault
injection calls" Vlastimil Babka removes a performance-affecting and not
very useful feature from slab fault injection.

- Vivek Kasireddy's series "mm/gup: Introduce memfd_pin_folios() for
pinning memfd folios" makes the GUP code use FOLL_PIN rather than
bare refcount increments. So these paes can first be moved aside if
they reside in the movable zone or a CMA block.
- Andrii Nakryiko has added a binary ioctl()-based API to
/proc/pid/maps for much faster reading of vma information. The series
is "query VMAs from /proc/<pid>/maps".
- In the series "mm: introduce per-order mTHP split counters" Lance
Yang improves the kernel's presentation of developer information
related to multisize THP splitting.
- Michael Ellerman has developed the series "Reimplement huge pages
without hugepd on powerpc (8xx, e500, book3s/64)". This permits
userspace to use all available huge page sizes.
- In the series "revert unconditional slab and page allocator fault

On powerpc 8xx, when a page is 8M size, the information is in the PMD
entry. So allow architectures to provide __pte_leaf_size() instead of
pte_leaf_size() and provide the PMD entry to that function.
When __pte_leaf_size() is not defined, define it as a pte_leaf_size() so
that architectures not interested in the PMD arguments are not impacted.
Only define a default pte_leaf_size() when __pte_leaf_size() is not
defined to make sure nobody adds new calls to pte_leaf_size() in the core.

perf_pending_irq() invokes perf_event_wakeup() and __perf_pending_irq().
The former is in charge of waking any tasks which waits to be woken up
while the latter disables perf-events.
The irq_work perf_pending_irq(), while this an irq_work, the callback
is invoked in thread context on PREEMPT_RT. This is needed because all
the waking functions (wake_up_all(), kill_fasync()) acquire sleep locks
which must not be used with disabled interrupts.
Disabling events, as done by __perf_pending_irq(), expects a hardirq
context and disabled interrupts. This requirement is not fulfilled on
PREEMPT_RT.
Split functionality based on perf_event::pending_disable into irq_work
named `pending_disable_irq' and invoke it in hardirq context on
PREEMPT_RT. Rename the split out callback to perf_pending_disable().

perf_pending_task() is invoked in task context and disables preemption
because perf_swevent_get_recursion_context() used to access per-CPU
variables. The other reason is to create a RCU read section while
accessing the perf_event.
The recursion counter is no longer a per-CPU accounter so disabling
preemption is no longer required. The RCU section is needed and must be
created explicit.
Replace the preemption-disable section with a explicit RCU-read section.

The swevent_htable::recursion counter is used to avoid creating an
swevent while an event is processed to avoid recursion. The counter is
per-CPU and preemption must be disabled to have a stable counter.
perf_pending_task() disables preemption to access the counter and then
signal. This is problematic on PREEMPT_RT because sending a signal uses
a spinlock_t which must not be acquired in atomic on PREEMPT_RT because
it becomes a sleeping lock.
The atomic context can be avoided by moving the counter into the
task_struct. There is a 4 byte hole between futex_state (usually always
on) and the following perf pointer (perf_event_ctxp). After the
recursion lost some weight it fits perfectly.
Move swevent_htable::recursion into task_struct.

There are four recursion counter, one for each context. The type of the
counter is `int' but the counter is used as `bool' since it is only
incremented if zero.
The main goal here is to shrink the whole struct into 32bit int which
can later be added task_struct into an existing hole.
Reduce the type of the recursion counter to an unsigned char, keep the
increment/ decrement operation.

A signal is delivered by raising irq_work() which works from any context
including NMI. irq_work() can be delayed if the architecture does not
provide an interrupt vector. In order not to lose a signal, the signal
is injected via task_work during event_sched_out().
Instead going via irq_work, the signal could be added directly via
task_work. The signal is sent to current and can be enqueued on its
return path to userland.
Queue signal via task_work and consider possible NMI context. Remove
perf_event::pending_sigtrap and and use perf_event::pending_work
instead.

Only if perf_event::pending_sigtrap is zero, the irq_work accounted by
increminging perf_event::nr_pending. The member perf_event::pending_addr
might be overwritten by a subsequent event if the signal was not yet
delivered and is expected. The irq_work will not be enqeueued again
because it has a check to be only enqueued once.
Move irq_work_queue() to where the counter is incremented and
perf_event::pending_sigtrap is set to make it more obvious that the
irq_work is scheduled once.

The perf pending task work is never waited upon the matching event
release. In the case of a child event, released via free_event()
directly, this can potentially result in a leaked event, such as in the
following scenario that doesn't even require a weak IRQ work
implementation to trigger:
schedule()
prepare_task_switch()
=======> <NMI>
perf_event_overflow()
event->pending_sigtrap = ...
irq_work_queue(&event->pending_irq)
<======= </NMI>
perf_event_task_sched_out()
event_sched_out()
event->pending_sigtrap = 0;
atomic_long_inc_not_zero(&event->refcount)
task_work_add(&event->pending_task)
finish_lock_switch()
=======> <IRQ>
perf_pending_irq()
//do nothing, rely on pending task work
<======= </IRQ>
begin_new_exec()
perf_event_exit_task()
perf_event_exit_event()
// If is child event
free_event()
WARN(atomic_long_cmpxchg(&event->refcount, 1, 0) != 1)
// event is leaked
Similar scenarios can also happen with perf_event_remove_on_exec() or
simply against concurrent perf_event_release().
Fix this with synchonizing against the possibly remaining pending task
work while freeing the event, just like is done with remaining pending
IRQ work. This means that the pending task callback neither need nor
should hold a reference to the event, preventing it from ever beeing
freed.

When a task is scheduled out, pending sigtrap deliveries are deferred
to the target task upon resume to userspace via task_work.
However failures while adding an event's callback to the task_work
engine are ignored. And since the last call for events exit happen
after task work is eventually closed, there is a small window during
which pending sigtrap can be queued though ignored, leaking the event
refcount addition such as in the following scenario:
TASK A
-----
do_exit()
exit_task_work(tsk);
<IRQ>
perf_event_overflow()
event->pending_sigtrap = pending_id;
irq_work_queue(&event->pending_irq);
</IRQ>
=========> PREEMPTION: TASK A -> TASK B
event_sched_out()
event->pending_sigtrap = 0;
atomic_long_inc_not_zero(&event->refcount)
// FAILS: task work has exited
task_work_add(&event->pending_task)
[...]
<IRQ WORK>
perf_pending_irq()
// early return: event->oncpu = -1
</IRQ WORK>
[...]

perf_event_exit_event()
free_event()
WARN(atomic_long_cmpxchg(&event->refcount, 1, 0) != 1)
// leak event due to unexpected refcount == 2
As a result the event is never released while the task exits.
Fix this with appropriate task_work_add()'s error handling.

nr_pages is unsigned long but gets passed to rb_alloc_aux() as an int,
and is stored as an int.
Only power-of-2 values are accepted, so if nr_pages is a 64_bit value, it
will be passed to rb_alloc_aux() as zero.
That is not ideal because:
1. the value is incorrect
2. rb_alloc_aux() is at risk of misbehaving, although it manages to
return -ENOMEM in that case, it is a result of passing zero to get_order()
even though the get_order() result is documented to be undefined in that
case.
Fix by simply validating the maximum supported value in the first place.
Use -ENOMEM error code for consistency with the current error code that
is returned in that case.

Implement a type-safe interface for min_heap using strong type pointers
instead of void * in the data field. This change includes adding small
macro wrappers around functions, enabling the use of __minheap_cast and
__minheap_obj_size macros for type casting and obtaining element size.
This implementation removes the necessity of passing element size in
min_heap_callbacks. Additionally, introduce the MIN_HEAP_PREALLOCATED
macro for preallocating some elements.

Patch series "treewide: Refactor heap related implementation", v6.
This patch series focuses on several adjustments related to heap
implementation. Firstly, a type-safe interface has been added to the
min_heap, along with the introduction of several new functions to enhance
its functionality. Additionally, the heap implementation for bcache and
bcachefs has been replaced with the generic min_heap implementation from
include/linux. Furthermore, several typos have been corrected.
Previous discussion with Kent Overstreet:
https://lkml.kernel.org/ioyfizrzq7w7mjrqcadtzsfgpuntowtjdw5pgn4qhvsdp4mqqg@nrlek5vmisbu

The task was waiting for the refcount become to 1, but from the vmcore,
we found the refcount has already been 1. It seems that the task didn't
get woken up by perf_event_release_kernel() and got stuck forever. The
below scenario may cause the problem.
Thread A Thread B
... ...
perf_event_free_task perf_event_release_kernel
...
acquire event->child_mutex
...
get_ctx
... release event->child_mutex
acquire ctx->mutex
...
perf_free_event (acquire/release event->child_mutex)
...
release ctx->mutex
wait_var_event
acquire ctx->mutex
acquire event->child_mutex
# move existing events to free_list
release event->child_mutex
release ctx->mutex
put_ctx
... ...
In this case, all events of the ctx have been freed, so we couldn't
find the ctx in free_list and Thread A will miss the wakeup. It's thus
necessary to add a wakeup after dropping the reference.

Nowadays, we call it "GUP-fast", the external interface includes functions
like "get_user_pages_fast()", and we renamed all internal functions to
reflect that as well.
Let's make the config option reflect that.

Returning zero from a BPF program attached to a perf event already
suppresses any data output. Return early from __perf_event_overflow() in
this case so it will also suppress event_limit accounting, SIGTRAP

To ultimately allow BPF programs attached to perf events to completely
suppress all of the effects of a perf event overflow (rather than just the
sample output, as they do today), call bpf_overflow_handler() from
__perf_event_overflow() directly rather than modifying struct perf_event's
overflow_handler. Return the BPF program's return value from
bpf_overflow_handler() so that __perf_event_overflow() knows how to
proceed. Remove the now unnecessary orig_overflow_handler from struct
perf_event.
This patch is solely a refactoring and results in no behavior change.

In perf_adjust_freq_unthr_context(), it first starts the event and then
stop unnecessarily to adjust the sampling frequency if the event is
throttled.
For a throttled non-frequency event, it doesn't have a freq so no need
to adjust. Just starting the event would be ok.
For a frequency event, whether it's throttled or not, it needs to stop
before adjusting the frequency. That means it should not start the
even if it was throttled. I tried to skip calling the stop callback,
but it didn't work well since the event count might not be up to date.
It should call the stop callback with PERF_EF_UPDATE anyway.
However not calling start would prevent unnecessary MSR accesses (which
can be costly) for already stopped events as stop state is saved in the
hw config.

It was unnecessarily disabling and enabling PMUs for each event. It
should be done at PMU level. Add pmu_ctx->nr_freq counter to check it
at each PMU. As PMU context has separate active lists for pinned group
and flexible group, factor out a new function to do the job.
Another minor optimization is that it can skip PMUs w/ CAP_NO_INTERRUPT
even if it needs to unthrottle sampling events.
