perf/x86: Add MSR probe interface
Adding perf_msr_probe function to provide interface for checking up on MSR register and set the related attribute group visibility. User defines following struct for each MSR register: struct perf_msr { u64 msr; struct attribute_group *grp; bool (*test)(int idx, void *data); bool no_check; }; Where: msr - is the MSR address attrs - is attribute groups array to add if the check passed test - is test function pointer no_check - is bool that bypass the check and adds the attribute without any test The array of struct perf_msr is passed into: perf_msr_probe(struct perf_msr *msr, int cnt, bool zero, void *data) Together with: cnt - which is the number of struct msr array elements data - which is user pointer passed to the test function zero - allow counters that returns zero on rdmsr The perf_msr_probe will executed test code, read the MSR and check the value is != 0. If all these tests pass, related attribute group is kept visible. Also adding PMU_EVENT_GROUP macro helper to define attribute group for single attribute. It will be used in following patches.
