      KVM: PPC: Implement hypervisor interface · 2a342ed5
      Alexander Graf 提交于
      To communicate with KVM directly we need to plumb some sort of interface
      between the guest and KVM. Usually those interfaces use hypercalls.
      
      This hypercall implementation is described in the last patch of the series
      in a special documentation file. Please read that for further information.
      
      This patch implements stubs to handle KVM PPC hypercalls on the host and
      guest side alike.

      powerpc, hw_breakpoints: Implement hw_breakpoints for 64-bit server processors · 5aae8a53
      K.Prasad 提交于
      Implement perf-events based hw-breakpoint interfaces for PowerPC
      64-bit server (Book III S) processors.  This allows access to a
      given location to be used as an event that can be counted or
      profiled by the perf_events subsystem.
      
      This is done using the DABR (data breakpoint register), which can
      also be used for process debugging via ptrace.  When perf_event
      hw_breakpoint support is configured in, the perf_event subsystem
      manages the DABR and arbitrates access to it, and ptrace then
      creates a perf_event when it is requested to set a data breakpoint.
      
      [Adopted suggestions from Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> to
      - emulate_step() all system-wide breakpoints and single-step only the
        per-task breakpoints
      - perform arch-specific cleanup before unregistration through
        arch_unregister_hw_breakpoint()

      perf: Do the big rename: Performance Counters -> Performance Events · cdd6c482
      Ingo Molnar 提交于
      Bye-bye Performance Counters, welcome Performance Events!
      
      In the past few months the perfcounters subsystem has grown out its
      initial role of counting hardware events, and has become (and is
      becoming) a much broader generic event enumeration, reporting, logging,
      monitoring, analysis facility.
      
      Naming its core object 'perf_counter' and naming the subsystem
      'perfcounters' has become more and more of a misnomer. With pending
      code like hw-breakpoints support the 'counter' name is less and
      less appropriate.
      
      All in one, we've decided to rename the subsystem to 'performance
      events' and to propagate this rename through all fields, variables
      and API names. (in an ABI compatible fashion)
      
      The word 'event' is also a bit shorter than 'counter' - which makes
      it slightly more convenient to write/handle as well.
      
      Thanks goes to Stephane Eranian who first observed this misnomer and
      suggested a rename.
      
      User-space tooling and ABI compatibility is not affected - this patch
      should be function-invariant. (Also, defconfigs were not touched to
      keep the size down.)
      
      This patch has been generated via the following script:
      
        FILES=$(find * -type f | grep -vE 'oprofile|[^K]config')
      
        sed -i \
          -e 's/PERF_EVENT_/PERF_RECORD_/g' \
          -e 's/PERF_COUNTER/PERF_EVENT/g' \
          -e 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g' \
          -e 's/nb_counters/nb_events/g' \
          -e 's/swcounter/swevent/g' \
          -e 's/tpcounter_event/tp_event/g' \
          $FILES
      
        for N in $(find . -name perf_counter.[ch]); do
          M=$(echo $N | sed 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g')
          mv $N $M
        done
      
        FILES=$(find . -name perf_event.*)
      
        sed -i \
          -e 's/COUNTER_MASK/REG_MASK/g' \
          -e 's/COUNTER/EVENT/g' \
          -e 's/\<event\>/event_id/g' \
          -e 's/counter/event/g' \
          -e 's/Counter/Event/g' \
          $FILES
      
      ... to keep it as correct as possible. This script can also be
      used by anyone who has pending perfcounters patches - it converts
      a Linux kernel tree over to the new naming. We tried to time this
      change to the point in time where the amount of pending patches
      is the smallest: the end of the merge window.
      
      Namespace clashes were fixed up in a preparatory patch - and some
      stylistic fallout will be fixed up in a subsequent patch.
      
      ( NOTE: 'counters' are still the proper terminology when we deal
        with hardware registers - and these sed scripts are a bit
        over-eager in renaming them. I've undone some of that, but
        in case there's something left where 'counter' would be
        better than 'event' we can undo that on an individual basis
        instead of touching an otherwise nicely automated patch. )

      perf_counter: powerpc: Add callchain support · 20002ded
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      This adds support for tracing callchains for powerpc, both 32-bit
      and 64-bit, and both in the kernel and userspace, from PMU interrupt
      context.
      
      The first three entries stored for each callchain are the NIP (next
      instruction pointer), LR (link register), and the contents of the LR
      save area in the second stack frame (the first is ignored because the
      ABI convention on powerpc is that functions save their return address
      in their caller's stack frame).  Because leaf functions don't have to
      save their return address (LR value) and don't have to establish a
      stack frame, it's possible for either or both of LR and the second
      stack frame's LR save area to have valid return addresses in them.
      This is basically impossible to disambiguate without either reading
      the code or looking at auxiliary information such as CFI tables.
      Since we don't want to do either of those things at interrupt time,
      we store both LR and the second stack frame's LR save area.
      
      Once we get past the second stack frame, there is no ambiguity; all
      return addresses we get are reliable.
      
      For kernel traces, we check whether they are valid kernel instruction
      addresses and store zero instead if they are not (rather than
      omitting them, which would make it impossible for userspace to know
      which was which).  We also store zero instead of the second stack
      frame's LR save area value if it is the same as LR.
      
      For kernel traces, we check for interrupt frames, and for user traces,
      we check for signal frames.  In each case, since we're starting a new
      trace, we store a PERF_CONTEXT_KERNEL/USER marker so that userspace
      knows that the next three entries are NIP, LR and the second stack frame
      for the interrupted context.
      
      We read user memory with __get_user_inatomic.  On 64-bit, if this
      PMU interrupt occurred while interrupts are soft-disabled, and
      there is no MMU hash table entry for the page, we will get an
      -EFAULT return from __get_user_inatomic even if there is a valid
      Linux PTE for the page, since hash_page isn't reentrant.  Thus we
      have code here to read the Linux PTE and access the page via the
      kernel linear mapping.  Since 64-bit doesn't use (or need) highmem
      there is no need to do kmap_atomic.  On 32-bit, we don't do soft
      interrupt disabling, so this complication doesn't occur and there
      is no need to fall back to reading the Linux PTE, since hash_page
      (or the TLB miss handler) will get called automatically if necessary.
      
      Note that we cannot get PMU interrupts in the interval during
      context switch between switch_mm (which switches the user address
      space) and switch_to (which actually changes current to the new
      process).  On 64-bit this is because interrupts are hard-disabled
      in switch_mm and stay hard-disabled until they are soft-enabled
      later, after switch_to has returned.  So there is no possibility
      of trying to do a user stack trace when the user address space is
      not current's address space.

      perf_counter: powerpc: Add processor back-end for MPC7450 family · 7325927e
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      This adds support for the performance monitor hardware on the
      MPC7450 family of processors (7450, 7451, 7455, 7447/7457, 7447A,
      7448), used in the later Apple G4 powermacs/powerbooks and other
      machines.  These machines have 6 hardware counters with a unique
      set of events which can be counted on each counter, with some
      events being available on multiple counters.
      
      Raw event codes for these processors are (PMC << 8) + PMCSEL.
      If PMC is non-zero then the event is that selected by the given
      PMCSEL value for that PMC (hardware counter).  If PMC is zero
      then the event selected is one of the low-numbered ones that are
      common to several PMCs.  In this case PMCSEL must be <= 22 and
      the event is what that PMCSEL value would select on PMC1 (but
      it may be placed any other PMC that has the same event for that
      PMCSEL value).
      
      For events that count cycles or occurrences that exceed a threshold,
      the threshold requested can be specified in the 0x3f000 bits of the
      raw event codes.  If the event uses the threshold multiplier bit
      and that bit should be set, that is indicated with the 0x40000 bit
      of the raw event code.
      
      This fills in some of the generic cache events.  Unfortunately there
      are quite a few blank spaces in the table, partly because these
      processors tend to count cache hits rather than cache accesses.

      perf_counter: powerpc: Enable use of software counters on 32-bit powerpc · 105988c0
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      This enables the perf_counter subsystem on 32-bit powerpc.  Since we
      don't have any support for hardware counters on 32-bit powerpc yet,
      only software counters can be used.
      
      Besides selecting HAVE_PERF_COUNTERS for 32-bit powerpc as well as
      64-bit, the main thing this does is add an implementation of
      set_perf_counter_pending().  This needs to arrange for
      perf_counter_do_pending() to be called when interrupts are enabled.
      Rather than add code to local_irq_restore as 64-bit does, the 32-bit
      set_perf_counter_pending() generates an interrupt by setting the
      decrementer to 1 so that a decrementer interrupt will become pending
      in 1 or 2 timebase ticks (if a decrementer interrupt isn't already
      pending).  When interrupts are enabled, timer_interrupt() will be
      called, and some new code in there calls perf_counter_do_pending().
      We use a per-cpu array of flags to indicate whether we need to call
      perf_counter_do_pending() or not.
      
      This introduces a couple of new Kconfig symbols: PPC_HAVE_PMU_SUPPORT,
      which is selected by processor families for which we have hardware PMU
      support (currently only PPC64), and PPC_PERF_CTRS, which enables the
      powerpc-specific perf_counter back-end.

      The intention is to make it harder for people to inadvertantly introduce

      if a warning is introduced, people can easily work around it while it's
      being fixed.
      
      The option is a negative, ie. don't enable -Werror, so that it will be
      turned on for allyes and allmodconfig builds.
      
      The default is n, in the hope that developers will build with -Werror,
      that will probably lead to some build breaks, I am prepared to be flamed.
      
      It's not enabled for math-emu, which is a steaming pile of warnings.

      This provides the architecture-specific functions needed to access
      PMU hardware on the 64-bit PowerPC processors.  It has been designed
      for the IBM POWER family (POWER 4/4+/5/5+/6 and PPC970) but will
      hopefully also suit other 64-bit PowerPC machines (although probably
      not Cell given how different it is in this area).  This doesn't
      include back-ends for any specific processors.
      
      This implements a system which allows back-ends to express the
      constraints that their hardware has on what events can be counted
      simultaneously.  The constraints are expressed as a 64-bit mask +
      64-bit value for each event, and the encoding is capable of
      expressing the constraints arising from having a set of multiplexers
      feeding an event bus, with some events being available through
      multiple multiplexer settings, such as we get on POWER4 and PPC970.
      Furthermore, the back-end can supply alternative event codes for
      each event, and the constraint checking code will try all possible
      combinations of alternative event codes to try to find a combination
      that will fit.

      - explicit recursion (create_cache_index_info)
      - use of two per-cpu arrays when one would suffice
      - duplication of work on systems where CPUs share cache
      
      Also, when I looked at implementing support for a shared_cpu_map
      attribute, it was pretty much impossible to handle hotplug without
      checking every single online CPU's cache_desc list and fixing things
      up... not that this is a hot path, but it would have introduced
      O(n^2)-ish behavior during boot.  Addressing this involved rethinking
      the core data structures used, which didn't lend itself to an
      incremental approach.
      
      This implementation maintains a "forest" (potentially more than one
      tree) of cache objects which reflects the system's cache topology.
      Cache objects are instantiated as needed as CPUs come online.  A
      per-cpu array is used mainly for sysfs-related bookkeeping; the
      objects in the array just point to the appropriate points in the
      forest.
      
      This maintains compatibility with the existing code and includes some
      enhancements:
      - Implement the shared_cpu_map attribute, which is essential for
        enabling userspace to discover the system's overall cache topology.
      - Use cache-block-size properties if cache-line-size is not available.
      
      I chose to place this implementation in a new file since it would have
      roughly doubled the size of sysfs.c, which is already kind of messy.

      powerpc/ppc32: static ftrace fixes for PPC32 · f1eecf0e

      Impact: fix for PowerPC 32 code
      
      There were some early init code that was not safe for static
      ftrace to boot on my PowerBook. This code must only use relative
      addressing, and static mcount performs a compare of the
      ftrace_trace_function pointer, and gets that with an absolute address.
      In the early init boot up code, this will cause a fault.
      
      This patch removes tracing from the files containing the offending
      functions.
