perf pmu: Treat the msr pmu as software
The msr PMU is a software one, meaning msr events may be grouped with events in a hardware context. As the msr PMU isn't marked as a software PMU by perf_pmu__is_software, groups with the msr PMU in are broken and the msr events placed in a different group. This may lead to multiplexing errors where a hardware event isn't counted while the msr event, such as tsc, is. Fix all of this by marking the msr PMU as software, which agrees with the driver. Before: ``` $ perf stat -e '{slots,tsc}' -a true WARNING: events were regrouped to match PMUs Performance counter stats for 'system wide': 1,750,335 slots 4,243,557 tsc 0.001456717 seconds time elapsed ``` After: ``` $ perf stat -e '{slots,tsc}' -a true Performance counter stats for 'system wide': 12,526,380 slots 3,415,163 tsc 0.001488360 seconds time elapsed ``` Fixes: 251aa040244a ("perf parse-events: Wildcard most "numeric" events") Signed-off-by: Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com> Reviewed-by: Kan Liang <kan.liang@linux.intel.com> Cc: James Clark <james.clark@arm.com> Cc: Caleb Biggers <caleb.biggers@intel.com> Cc: Edward Baker <edward.baker@intel.com> Cc: Perry Taylor <perry.taylor@intel.com> Cc: Samantha Alt <samantha.alt@intel.com> Cc: Weilin Wang <weilin.wang@intel.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240124234200.1510417-1-irogers@google.com Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org>
