A raw PMU event (eventsel+umask) in the form of rNNN is supported
by perf but lacks of checking for the validity of raw encoding.
For example, bit 16 and bit 17 are not valid on KBL but perf doesn't
report warning when encoding with these bits.
Before:
# ./perf stat -e cpu/r031234/ -a -- sleep 1
Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
0 cpu/r031234/
1.003798924 seconds time elapsed
It may silently measure the wrong event!
The kernel supported bits have been exported through
/sys/devices/<pmu>/format/. Perf collects the information to
'struct perf_pmu_format' and links it to 'pmu->format' list.
The 'struct perf_pmu_format' has a bitmap which records the
valid bits for this format. For example,
root@kbl-ppc:/sys/devices/cpu/format# cat umask
config:8-15
The valid bits (bit8-bit15) are recorded in bitmap of format 'umask'.
We collect total valid bits of all formats, save to a local variable
'masks' and reverse it. Now '~masks' represents total invalid bits.
bits = config & ~masks;
The set bits in 'bits' indicate the invalid bits used in config.
Finally we use bitmap_scnprintf to report the invalid bits.
Some architectures may not export supported bits through sysfs,
so if masks is 0, perf_pmu__warn_invalid_config directly returns.
After:
Single event without name:
# ./perf stat -e cpu/r031234/ -a -- sleep 1
WARNING: event 'N/A' not valid (bits 16-17 of config '31234' not supported by kernel)!
Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
0 cpu/r031234/
1.001597373 seconds time elapsed
Multiple events with names:
# ./perf stat -e cpu/rf01234,name=aaa/,cpu/r031234,name=bbb/ -a -- sleep 1
WARNING: event 'aaa' not valid (bits 20,22 of config 'f01234' not supported by kernel)!
WARNING: event 'bbb' not valid (bits 16-17 of config '31234' not supported by kernel)!
Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
0 aaa
0 bbb
1.001573787 seconds time elapsed
Warnings are reported for invalid bits.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
