perf/x86/amd/uncore: Move discovery and registration
Uncore PMUs have traditionally been registered in the module init path. This is fine for the existing DF and L3 PMUs since the CPUID information does not vary across CPUs but not for the memory controller (UMC) PMUs since information like active memory channels can vary for each socket depending on how the DIMMs have been physically populated. To overcome this, the discovery of PMU information using CPUID is moved to the startup of UNCORE_STARTING. This cannot be done in the startup of UNCORE_PREP since the hotplug callback does not run on the CPU that is being brought online. Previously, the startup of UNCORE_PREP was used for allocating uncore contexts following which, the startup of UNCORE_STARTING was used to find and reuse an existing sibling context, if possible. Any unused contexts were added to a list for reclaimation later during the startup of UNCORE_ONLINE. Since all required CPUID info is now available only after the startup of UNCORE_STARTING has completed, context allocation has been moved to the startup of UNCORE_ONLINE. Before allocating contexts, the first CPU that comes online has to take up the additional responsibility of registering the PMUs. This is a one-time process though. Since sibling discovery now happens prior to deciding whether a new context is required, there is no longer a need to track and free up unused contexts. The teardown of UNCORE_ONLINE and UNCORE_PREP functionally remain the same. Overall, the flow of control described above is achieved using the following handlers for managing uncore PMUs. It is mandatory to define them for each type of uncore PMU. * scan() runs during startup of UNCORE_STARTING and collects PMU info using CPUID. * init() runs during startup of UNCORE_ONLINE, registers PMUs and sets up uncore contexts. * move() runs during teardown of UNCORE_ONLINE and migrates uncore contexts to a shared sibling, if possible. * free() runs during teardown of UNCORE_PREP and frees up uncore contexts.
