This bug is awaiting verification that the linux-bluefield/6.8.0-1006.10
kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and
update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the
tag 'verification-needed-noble-linux-bluefield' to 'verification-done-
noble-linux-bluefield'. If the problem still exists, change the tag
'verification-needed-noble-linux-bluefield' to 'verification-failed-
noble-linux-bluefield'.


If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will
be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.


See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how
to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!

Title:
  mlxbf-pmc: ignore unsupported blocks

Status in linux-bluefield package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in linux-bluefield source package in Noble:
  New

Bug description:
  SRU Justification:

  [Impact]
  Currently, the driver has two behaviors to deal with new & unsupported 
performance blocks reported by the firmware:
  1. For register and unknown block types, the driver will fail to load.
  2. For counter and crspace blocks, the driver will load and sysfs files will 
be created but getting the contents of event_list or trying to setup the 
counter will fail.

  [Fix]
  Instead, let's ignore and log unsupported blocks. This means the driver will 
always load and unsupported blocks will never show up in sysfs.

  [Test Case]
  * Boot BF2/BF3 platform, verify no new errors with loading the driver.
  * Test sysfs interface exposed by driver for programming various counters and 
events.

  [Regression Potential]
  Minimal
