[ Upstream commit 3337bf41e0dd70b4064cdf60acdfcdc2d050066c ] An extra count on ebb_state.stats.pmc_count[PMC_INDEX(pmc)] is being per- formed when count_pmc() is used to reset PMCs on a few selftests. This extra pmc_count can occasionally invalidate results, such as the ones from cycles_test shown hereafter. The ebb_check_count() failed with an above the upper limit error due to the extra value on ebb_state.stats.pmc_count. Furthermore, this extra count is also indicated by extra PMC1 trace_log on the output of the cycle test (as well as on pmc56_overflow_test): ========== ...

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
