Kajol Jain 41eec45c71 powerpc/hv-gpci: Fix the H_GET_PERF_COUNTER_INFO hcall return value checks
[ Upstream commit ad86d7ee43b22aa2ed60fb982ae94b285c1be671 ]

Running event hv_gpci/dispatch_timebase_by_processor_processor_time_in_timebase_cycles,phys_processor_idx=0/
in one of the system throws below error:

 ---Logs---
 # perf list | grep hv_gpci/dispatch_timebase_by_processor_processor_time_in_timebase_cycles
  hv_gpci/dispatch_timebase_by_processor_processor_time_in_timebase_cycles,phys_processor_idx=?/[Kernel PMU event]

 # perf stat -v -e hv_gpci/dispatch_timebase_by_processor_processor_time_in_timebase_cycles,phys_processor_idx=0/ sleep 2

Warning:
hv_gpci/dispatch_timebase_by_processor_processor_time_in_timebase_cycles,phys_processor_idx=0/ event is not supported by the kernel.
failed to read counter hv_gpci/dispatch_timebase_by_processor_processor_time_in_timebase_cycles,phys_processor_idx=0/

 Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

   <not supported>      hv_gpci/dispatch_timebase_by_processor_processor_time_in_timebase_cycles,phys_processor_idx=0/

       2.000700771 seconds time elapsed

The above error is because of the hcall failure as required
permission "Enable Performance Information Collection" is not set.
Based on current code, single_gpci_request function did not check the
error type incase hcall fails and by default returns EINVAL. But we can
have other reasons for hcall failures like H_AUTHORITY/H_PARAMETER with
detail_rc as GEN_BUF_TOO_SMALL, for which we need to act accordingly.

Fix this issue by adding new checks in the single_gpci_request and
h_gpci_event_init functions.

Result after fix patch changes:

 # perf stat -e hv_gpci/dispatch_timebase_by_processor_processor_time_in_timebase_cycles,phys_processor_idx=0/ sleep 2
Error:
No permission to enable hv_gpci/dispatch_timebase_by_processor_processor_time_in_timebase_cycles,phys_processor_idx=0/ event.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
