2022-03-01selftests/powerpc/pmu/: Add interface test for mmcr0 exception bitsAthira Rajeev1-0/+59
The testcase uses "instructions" event to verify two bits(PMAE and PMAO) in Monitor Mode Control Register 0 (MMCR0). At the time of interrupt, pmae bit ( which enables performance monitor exception ) is expected to be cleared and pmao (which indicates performance monitor alert) bit is expected to be set in MMCR0. And testcases handles these checks.
