powerpc/perf: Adds support for programming of Thresholding in P10
Thresholding, a performance monitoring unit feature, can be
used to identify marked instructions which take more than
expected cycles between start event and end event.
Threshold compare (thresh_cmp) bits are programmed in MMCRA
register. In Power9, thresh_cmp bits were part of the
event code. But in case of P10, thresh_cmp are not part of
event code due to inclusion of MMCR3 bits.
Patch here adds an option to use attr.config1 variable
to be used to pass thresh_cmp value to be programmed in
MMCRA register. A new ppmu flag called PPMU_HAS_ATTR_CONFIG1
has been added and this flag is used to notify the use of
attr.config1 variable.
Patch has extended the parameter list of 'compute_mmcr',
to include power_pmu's 'flags' element and parameter list of
get_constraint to include attr.config1 value. It also extend
parameter list of power_check_constraints inorder to pass
perf_event list.
As stated by commit ef0e3b650f8d ("powerpc/perf: Fix Threshold
Event Counter Multiplier width for P10"), constraint bits for
thresh_cmp is also needed to be increased to 11 bits, which is
handled as part of this patch. We added bit number 53 as part
of constraint bits of thresh_cmp for power10 to make it an
11 bit field.
Updated layout for p10:
/*

*
* 60 56 52 48 44 40 36 32
* | - - - - | - - - - | - - - - | - - - - | - - - - | - - - - | - - - - | - - - - |

* EBB -* | | p1, p2, p3, p4, p5, p6.
* L1 I/D qualifier -* |
* nc - number of counters -*
*
* The PMC fields P1..P6, and NC, are adder fields. As we accumulate constraints
* we want the low bit of each field to be added to any existing value.
*
* Everything else is a value field.
