The PEBS-via-PT feature is exposed for the e-core of some hybrid
platforms, e.g., ADL and MTL. But it never works.
$ dmesg | grep PEBS
[ 1.793888] core: cpu_atom PMU driver: PEBS-via-PT
$ perf record -c 1000 -e '{intel_pt/branch=0/,
cpu_atom/cpu-cycles,aux-output/pp}' -C8
Error:
The sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 22 (Invalid argument)
for event (cpu_atom/cpu-cycles,aux-output/pp).
"dmesg | grep -i perf" may provide additional information.
The "PEBS-via-PT" is printed if the corresponding bit of per-PMU
capabilities is set. Since the feature is supported by the e-core HW,
perf sets the bit for e-core. However, for Intel PT, if a feature is not
supported on all CPUs, it is not supported at all. The PEBS-via-PT event
cannot be created successfully.
The PEBS-via-PT is no longer enumerated on the latest hybrid platform. It
will be deprecated on future platforms with Arch PEBS. Let's remove it
from the existing hybrid platforms.
Fixes:

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 reStructuredText 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.
