[PATCH v4 7/8] perf: Add perf_event_attr::config3

From: Rob Herring <robh@kernel.org>
Date: 2023-01-09 19:26:58
Also in: kvmarm, linux-perf-users, lkml
Subsystem: performance events subsystem, the rest · Maintainers: Peter Zijlstra, Ingo Molnar, Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo, Namhyung Kim, Linus Torvalds

Arm SPEv1.2 adds another 64-bits of event filtering control. As the
existing perf_event_attr::configN fields are all used up for SPE PMU, an
additional field is needed. Add a new 'config3' field.

Tested-by: James Clark <redacted>
Signed-off-by: Rob Herring <robh@kernel.org>
---
There's still an unresolved discussion about validating 'config3' with
the options laid out here[1].

v4:
 - Rebase on v6.2-rc1
v3:
 - No change
v2:
 - Drop tools/ side update
