63 * The power_pmu.get_constraint function returns a 64-bit value and
64 * a 64-bit mask that express the constraints between this event and
65 * other events.
66 *
67 * The value and mask are divided up into (non-overlapping) bitfields
68 * of three different types:
69 *
70 * Select field: this expresses the constraint that some set of bits
71 * in MMCR* needs to be set to a specific value for this event. For a
72 * select field, the mask contains 1s in every bit of the field, and
73 * the value contains a unique value for each possible setting of the
74 * MMCR* bits. The constraint checking code will ensure that two events
75 * that set the same field in their masks have the same value in their
76 * value dwords.
77 *
78 * Add field: this expresses the constraint that there can be at most
79 * N events in a particular class. A field of k bits can be used for
80 * N <= 2^(k-1) - 1. The mask has the most significant bit of the field
81 * set (and the other bits 0), and the value has only the least significant
82 * bit of the field set. In addition, the 'add_fields' and 'test_adder'
83 * in the struct power_pmu for this processor come into play. The
84 * add_fields value contains 1 in the LSB of the field, and the
85 * test_adder contains 2^(k-1) - 1 - N in the field.
86 *
87 * NAND field: this expresses the constraint that you may not have events
88 * in all of a set of classes. (For example, on PPC970, you can't select
89 * events from the FPU, ISU and IDU simultaneously, although any two are
90 * possible.) For N classes, the field is N+1 bits wide, and each class
91 * is assigned one bit from the least-significant N bits. The mask has
92 * only the most-significant bit set, and the value has only the bit
93 * for the event's class set. The test_adder has the least significant
94 * bit set in the field.
95 *
96 * If an event is not subject to the constraint expressed by a particular
97 * field, then it will have 0 in both the mask and value for that field.
