perf events, powerpc: Add POWER7 stalled-cycles-frontend/backend events Extent the POWER7 PMU driver with definitions for generic front-end and back-end stall events. As explained in Ingo's original comment(8f622422 ), the exact definitions of the stall events are very much processor specific as different things mean different in their respective instruction pipeline. These two Power7 raw events are the closest approximation to the concept detailed in Ingo's comment. [PERF_COUNT_HW_STALLED_CYCLES_FRONTEND] = 0x100f8, /* GCT_NOSLOT_CYC */ It means cycles when the Global Completion Table has no slots from this thread [PERF_COUNT_HW_STALLED_CYCLES_BACKEND] = 0x4000a, /* CMPLU_STALL */ It means no groups completed and GCT not empty for this thread Signed-off-by: Anshuman Khandual <khandual@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
