[PATCH 4/4] perf/x86/intel: drain PEBS buffer in event read

From: kan . liang
Date: Mon Dec 18 2017 - 14:47:31 EST


From: Kan Liang <kan.liang@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

When the PEBS interrupt threshold is larger than one, there is no way to
get exact auto-reload times and value needed for event update unless
flush the PEBS buffer.

Drain the PEBS buffer in event read when large PEBS is enabled.

For the threshold is one, even auto-reload is enabled, it doesn't need
to be specially handled. Because auto-reload is only effect when event
overflow. There is no overflow in event read.
