There are several things special for the RAPL Psys energy counter, on Intel Sapphire Rapids platform. 1. it contains one Psys master package, and only CPUs on the master package can read valid value of the Psys energy counter, reading the MSR on CPUs in the slave package returns 0. 2. The master package does not have to be Physical package 0. And when all the CPUs on the Psys master package are offlined, we lose the Psys energy counter, at runtime. 3. The Psys energy counter can be disabled by BIOS, while all the other energy counters are not affected. It is not easy to handle all of these in the current RAPL PMU design because a) perf_msr_probe() validates the MSR on some random CPU, which may either be in the Psys master package or in the Psys slave package. b) all the RAPL events share the same PMU, and there is not API to remove the psys-energy event cleanly, without affecting the other events in the same PMU. This patch addresses the problems in a simple way. First, by setting .no_check bit for RAPL Psys MSR, the psys-energy event is always added, so we don't have to check the Psys ENERGY_STATUS MSR on master package. Then, by removing rapl_not_visible(), the psys-energy event is always available in sysfs. This does not affect the previous code because, for the RAPL MSRs with .no_check cleared, the .is_visible() callback is always overriden in the perf_msr_probe() function. Note, although RAPL PMU is die-based, and the Psys energy counter MSR on Intel SPR is package scope, this is not a problem because there is only one die in each package on SPR.

README
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.
