powerpc/perf_event: Fix for power_pmu_disable()
When power_pmu_disable() removes the given event from a particular index into cpuhw->event[], it shuffles down higher event[] entries. But, this array is paired with cpuhw->events[] and cpuhw->flags[] so should shuffle them similarly. If these arrays get out of sync, code such as power_check_constraints() will fail. This caused a bug where events were temporarily disabled and then failed to be re-enabled; subsequent code tried to write_pmc() with its (disabled) idx of 0, causing a message "oops trying to write PMC0". This triggers this bug on POWER7, running a miss-heavy test: perf record -e L1-dcache-load-misses -e L1-dcache-store-misses ./misstest Signed-off-by: Matt Evans <matt@ozlabs.org> Acked-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
