For PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK sample type, different branch_sample_type ie branch filters are supported. The branch filters are requested via event attribute "branch_sample_type". Multiple branch filters can be passed in event attribute. eg: $ perf record -b -o- -B --branch-filter any,ind_call true None of the Power PMUs support having multiple branch filters at the same time. Branch filters for branch stack sampling is set via MMCRA IFM bits [32:33]. But currently when requesting for multiple filter types, the "perf record" command does not report any error. eg: $ perf record -b -o- -B --branch-filter any,save_type true $ perf record -b -o- -B --branch-filter any,ind_call true The "bhrb_filter_map" function in PMU driver code does the validity check for supported branch filters. But this check is done for single filter. Hence "perf record" will proceed here without reporting any error. Fix power_pmu_event_init() to return EOPNOTSUPP when multiple branch filters are requested in the event attr. After the fix: $ perf record --branch-filter any,ind_call -- ls Error: cycles: PMU Hardware doesn't support sampling/overflow-interrupts.

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 Restructured Text 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.
