Default config for a PMU is defined before selected events are parsed. That allows the user-entered config to override the default config. However that does not allow for changing the default config based on other options. For example, if the user chooses AUX area sampling mode, in the case of Intel PT, the psb_period needs to be small for sampling, so there is a need to set the default psb_period to 0 (2 KiB) in that case. However that should not override a value set by the user. To allow for that, when using default config, record which bits of config were changed by the user.

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.
