      perf record ibs: Warn about sampling period skew · 9ab95b0b
      Ravi Bangoria authored
      Samples without an L3 miss are discarded and counter is reset with
      random value (between 1-15 for fetch PMU and 1-127 for op PMU) when IBS
      L3 miss filtering is enabled. This causes a sampling period skew but
      there is no way to reconstruct aggregated sampling period. So print a
      warning at perf record if user sets l3missonly=1.
      
      Ex:
      
        # perf record -c 10000 -C 0 -e ibs_op/l3missonly=1/
        WARNING: Hw internally resets sampling period when L3 Miss Filtering is enabled
        and tagged operation does not cause L3 Miss. This causes sampling period skew.
