For some architectures (like arm), it is required to support a vendor
subdirectory and not locate all the JSONs for a specific vendor in the
same folder.
This is because all the events for the same vendor will be placed in the
same pmu events table, which may cause conflict. This conflict would be
in the instance that a vendor's custom implemented events do have the
same meaning on different platforms, so events in the pmu table would
conflict. In addition, per list command may show events which are not
even supported for a given platform.
This patch adds support for a arch/vendor/platform directory hierarchy,
while maintaining backwards-compatibility for existing arch/platform
structure. In this, each platform would always have its own pmu events
table.
In generated file pmu_events.c, each platform table name is in the
format pme{_vendor}_platform, like this:
struct pmu_events_map pmu_events_map[] = {
{
.cpuid = "0x00000000420f5160",
.version = "v1",
.type = "core",
.table = pme_cavium_thunderx2
},
{
.cpuid = 0,
.version = 0,
.type = 0,
.table = 0,
},
};

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
