    perf test record user-regs: Fix mask for vg register · 28b01743
    Veronika Molnarova authored
    The 'vg' register for arm64 shows up in --user_regs as available when
    masking the variable AT_HWCAP with 1 << 22 returns '1' as done in
    perf_regs.c.
    
    However, in subtests for support of SVE, the check for the 'vg' register
    is done by masking the variable AT_HWCAP with the value 0x200000 which
    is equals to 1 << 21 instead of 1 << 22.
    
    This results in inconsistencies on certain systems where the test
    expects that the 'vg' register is not operational when it is, and
    vice-versa.
    
    During the testing on a machine that the test expected not to have the
    'vg' register available, 'perf record' with the option --user-regs
    showed records for the 'vg' register together with all of the others,
    which means that the mask for the subtest of perf_event_attr is off by
    one.
    
    Change the value of the mask from 0x200000 to 0x400000 to correct it.
