L3PMCx0AC and L3PMCx0AD, used in l3_xi_sampled_latency* events, have a
quirk that requires them to be programmed with SliceId set to 0x3.
Without this, the events do not count at all and affects dependent
metrics such as l3_read_miss_latency.
If ThreadMask is not specified, the amd-uncore driver internally sets
ThreadMask to 0x3, EnAllCores to 0x1 and EnAllSlices to 0x1 but does
not set SliceId. Since SliceId must also be set to 0x3 in this case,
specify all the other fields explicitly.
E.g.
$ sudo perf stat -e l3_xi_sampled_latency.all,l3_xi_sampled_latency_requests.all -a sleep 1
Before:
Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
0 l3_xi_sampled_latency.all
0 l3_xi_sampled_latency_requests.all
1.005155399 seconds time elapsed
After:
Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
921,446 l3_xi_sampled_latency.all
54,210 l3_xi_sampled_latency_requests.all
1.005664472 seconds time elapsed

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.
