Kim Phillips 960b33e551 perf/x86/amd/uncore: Do not set 'ThreadMask' and 'SliceMask' for non-L3 PMCs
commit 16f4641166 upstream.

The following commit:

  d7cbbe49a9 ("perf/x86/amd/uncore: Set ThreadMask and SliceMask for L3 Cache perf events")

enables L3 PMC events for all threads and slices by writing 1's in
'ChL3PmcCfg' (L3 PMC PERF_CTL) register fields.

Those bitfields overlap with high order event select bits in the Data
Fabric PMC control register, however.

So when a user requests raw Data Fabric events (-e amd_df/event=0xYYY/),
the two highest order bits get inadvertently set, changing the counter
select to events that don't exist, and for which no counts are read.

This patch changes the logic to write the L3 masks only when dealing
with L3 PMC counters.

AMD Family 16h and below Northbridge (NB) counters were not affected.

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.
