perf_event: Fix event group handling in __perf_event_sched_*()
Paul Mackerras says:
"Actually, looking at this more closely, it has to be a group
leader anyway since it's at the top level of ctx->group_list. In
fact I see four places where we do:
list_for_each_entry(event, &ctx->group_list, group_entry) {
if (event == event->group_leader)
...
or the equivalent, three of which appear to have been introduced
by afedadf2 ("perf_counter: Optimize sched in/out of counters")
back in May by Peter Z.
As far as I can see the if () is superfluous in each case (a
singleton event will be a group of 1 and will have its
group_leader pointing to itself)."
[ See: http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=125361238901442&w=2 ]
And Peter Zijlstra points out this is a bugfix:
"The intent was to call event_sched_{in,out}() for single event
groups because that's cheaper than group_sched_{in,out}(),
however..
- as you noticed, I got the condition wrong, it should have read:
list_empty(&event->sibling_list)
- it failed to call group_can_go_on() which deals with ->exclusive.
- it also doesn't call hw_perf_group_sched_in() which might break
power."
[ See: http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=125369523318583&w=2 ]
Changelog v1->v2:
- Fix the title name according to Peter Zijlstra's suggestion
- Remove the comments and WARN_ON_ONCE() as Peter Zijlstra's
suggestion
