Hi Hendrik, Thomas,
I noticed that in 4.17-rc1 support was included for s390 perf pmu-events. I
also notice that the JSONs contain many common (identical actually) events
between different chips for this arch.
Support was added for factoring out common arch events in
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git/commit/tools/perf/pmu-events?h=next-20180420&id=e9d32c1bf0cd7a98358ec4aa1625bf2b3459b9ac
ARM64 chips use this feature. I am not familiar with the s390 arch, but do you
think you could also use this feature?
Thanks,

Thanks John,
for bringing this to my attention. Yes I will definitely look into this feature
and will try to
rework our s390 json files when this seems beneficial.
I did not notice this patch on the linux-perf-users mailing list. Was it there
for review?
I do ask this because recently I have nearly no traffic on this list in my
reader, so I wonder
if there is something wrong with my mailing list subscription or setup.
Hi Thomas,
The only relevant list was [email protected]
This is the only list which the MAINTAINERS file advises to add. I did
wonder about a dedicated perf list, as I seem to miss mails also.
Hi Peter, Ingo, Arnaldo,
Should linux-perf-users address be added for perf-related patches? If
so, should we add it to the maintainers file? If not, why no dedicated list?
Thanks,
John
Thanks.
