selftests/powerpc: Add a test of counting larx/stcx

2020-05-15T01:58:55Z

This is based on the count_instructions test. However this one also counts the number of failed stcx's, and in conjunction with knowing the size of the stcx loop, can calculate the total number of instructions executed even in the face of non-deterministic stcx failures.

selftests: Add test of PMU instruction counting on powerpc

2013-08-14T04:57:10Z

This commit adds a test of instruction counting using the PMU on powerpc. Although the bulk of the code is architecture agnostic, the code needs to run a precisely sized loop which is implemented in assembler. Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt
