    drivers/perf: arm_pmu_acpi: avoid perf IRQ init when guest PMU is off · 477c50e8
    Wei Huang authored
    We saw perf IRQ init failures when running Linux kernel in an ACPI
    guest without PMU (i.e. pmu=off). This is because perf IRQ is not
    present when pmu=off, but arm_pmu_acpi still tries to register
    or unregister GSI. This patch addresses the problem by checking
    gicc->performance_interrupt. If it is 0, which is the value set
    by qemu when pmu=off, we skip the IRQ register/unregister process.
