      perf/x86/intel: Fix PEBS data source interpretation on Nehalem/Westmere · e17dc653
      由 Andi Kleen 提交于 
      Jiri reported some time ago that some entries in the PEBS data source table
in perf do not agree with the SDM. We investigated and the bits
changed for Sandy Bridge, but the SDM was not updated.

perf already implements the bits correctly for Sandy Bridge
and later. This patch patches it up for Nehalem and Westmere.

      perf/x86/pebs: Add proper PEBS constraints for Broadwell · b3e62463
      由 Stephane Eranian 提交于 
      This patch adds a Broadwell specific PEBS event constraint table.

Broadwell has a fix for the HT corruption bug erratum HSD29 on
Haswell. Therefore, there is no need to mark events 0xd0, 0xd1, 0xd2,
0xd3 has requiring the exclusive mode across both sibling HT threads.
This holds true for regular counting and sampling (see core.c) and
PEBS (ds.c) which we fix in this patch.

In doing so, we relax evnt scheduling for these events, they can now
be programmed on any 4 counters without impacting what is measured on
the sibling thread.

      perf/x86/pebs: Add workaround for broken OVFL status on HSW+ · 8077eca0
      由 Stephane Eranian 提交于 
      This patch fixes an issue with the GLOBAL_OVERFLOW_STATUS bits on
Haswell, Broadwell and Skylake processors when using PEBS.

The SDM stipulates that when the PEBS iterrupt threshold is crossed,
an interrupt is posted and the kernel is interrupted. The kernel will
find GLOBAL_OVF_SATUS bit 62 set indicating there are PEBS records to
drain. But the bits corresponding to the actual counters should NOT be
set. The kernel follows the SDM and assumes that all PEBS events are
processed in the drain_pebs() callback. The kernel then checks for
remaining overflows on any other (non-PEBS) events and processes these
in the for_each_bit_set(&status) loop.

As it turns out, under certain conditions on HSW and later processors,
on PEBS buffer interrupt, bit 62 is set but the counter bits may be
set as well. In that case, the kernel drains PEBS and generates
SAMPLES with the EXACT tag, then it processes the counter bits, and
generates normal (non-EXACT) SAMPLES.

I ran into this problem by trying to understand why on HSW sampling on
a PEBS event was sometimes returning SAMPLES without the EXACT tag.
This should not happen on user level code because HSW has the
eventing_ip which always point to the instruction that caused the
event.

The workaround in this patch simply ensures that the bits for the
counters used for PEBS events are cleared after the PEBS buffer has
been drained. With this fix 100% of the PEBS samples on my user code
report the EXACT tag.

Before:
  $ perf record -e cpu/event=0xd0,umask=0x81/upp ./multichase
  $ perf report -D | fgrep SAMPLES
  PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE(IP, 0x2): 11775/11775: 0x406de5 period: 73469 addr: 0 exact=Y
                           \--- EXACT tag is missing

After:
  $ perf record -e cpu/event=0xd0,umask=0x81/upp ./multichase
  $ perf report -D | fgrep SAMPLES
  PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE(IP, 0x4002): 11775/11775: 0x406de5 period: 73469 addr: 0 exact=Y
                           \--- EXACT tag is set

The problem tends to appear more often when multiple PEBS events are used.

      perf/x86/intel: Fix PEBS warning by only restoring active PMU in pmi · c3d266c8
      由 Kan Liang 提交于 
      This patch tries to fix a PEBS warning found in my stress test. The
following perf command can easily trigger the pebs warning or spurious
NMI error on Skylake/Broadwell/Haswell platforms:

  sudo perf record -e 'cpu/umask=0x04,event=0xc4/pp,cycles,branches,ref-cycles,cache-misses,cache-references' --call-graph fp -b -c1000 -a

Also the NMI watchdog must be enabled.

For this case, the events number is larger than counter number. So
perf has to do multiplexing.

In perf_mux_hrtimer_handler, it does perf_pmu_disable(), schedule out
old events, rotate_ctx, schedule in new events and finally
perf_pmu_enable().

If the old events include precise event, the MSR_IA32_PEBS_ENABLE
should be cleared when perf_pmu_disable().  The MSR_IA32_PEBS_ENABLE
should keep 0 until the perf_pmu_enable() is called and the new event is
precise event.

However, there is a corner case which could restore PEBS_ENABLE to
stale value during the above period. In perf_pmu_disable(), GLOBAL_CTRL
will be set to 0 to stop overflow and followed PMI. But there may be
pending PMI from an earlier overflow, which cannot be stopped. So even
GLOBAL_CTRL is cleared, the kernel still be possible to get PMI. At
the end of the PMI handler, __intel_pmu_enable_all() will be called,
which will restore the stale values if old events haven't scheduled
out.

Once the stale pebs value is set, it's impossible to be corrected if
the new events are non-precise. Because the pebs_enabled will be set
to 0. x86_pmu.enable_all() will ignore the MSR_IA32_PEBS_ENABLE
setting. As a result, the following NMI with stale PEBS_ENABLE
trigger pebs warning.

The pending PMI after enabled=0 will become harmless if the NMI handler
does not change the state. This patch checks cpuc->enabled in pmi and
only restore the state when PMU is active.

      perf/x86: Fix uninitialized value usage · e01d8718
      由 Peter Zijlstra 提交于 
      When calling intel_alt_er() with .idx != EXTRA_REG_RSP_* we will not
initialize alt_idx and then use this uninitialized value to index an
array.

When that is not fatal, it can result in an infinite loop in its
caller __intel_shared_reg_get_constraints(), with IRQs disabled.

Alternative error modes are random memory corruption due to the
cpuc->shared_regs->regs[] array overrun, which manifest in either
get_constraints or put_constraints doing weird stuff.

Only took 6 hours of painful debugging to find this. Neither GCC nor
Smatch warnings flagged this bug.

      Knights Landing core is based on Silvermont core with several differences.
Like Silvermont, Knights Landing has 8 pairs of LBR MSRs. However, the
LBR MSRs addresses match those of the Xeon cores' first 8 pairs of LBR MSRs
Unlike Silvermont, Knights Landing supports hyperthreading. Knights Landing
offcore response events config register mask is different from that of the

      perf/x86: Enable cycles:pp for Intel Atom · 673d188b
      由 Stephane Eranian 提交于 
      This patch updates the PEBS support for Intel Atom to provide
an alias for the cycles:pp event used by perf record/top by default
nowadays.

On Atom, only INST_RETIRED:ANY supports PEBS, so we use this event
instead with a large cmask to count cycles. Given that Core2 has
the same issue, we use the intel_pebs_aliases_core2() function for Atom
as well.

      perf/x86: Use INST_RETIRED.PREC_DIST for cycles: ppp · 72469764
      由 Andi Kleen 提交于 
      Add a new 'three-p' precise level, that uses INST_RETIRED.PREC_DIST as
base. The basic mechanism of abusing the inverse cmask to get all
cycles works the same as before.

PREC_DIST is available on Sandy Bridge or later. It had some problems
on Sandy Bridge, so we only use it on IvyBridge and later. I tested it
on Broadwell and Skylake.

PREC_DIST has special support for avoiding shadow effects, which can
give better results compare to UOPS_RETIRED. The drawback is that
PREC_DIST can only schedule on counter 1, but that is ok for cycle
sampling, as there is normally no need to do multiple cycle sampling
runs in parallel. It is still possible to run perf top in parallel, as
that doesn't use precise mode. Also of course the multiplexing can
still allow parallel operation.

:pp stays with the previous event.

Example:

Sample a loop with 10 sqrt with old cycles:pp

	  0.14 │10:   sqrtps %xmm1,%xmm0     <--------------
	  9.13 │      sqrtps %xmm1,%xmm0
	 11.58 │      sqrtps %xmm1,%xmm0
	 11.51 │      sqrtps %xmm1,%xmm0
	  6.27 │      sqrtps %xmm1,%xmm0
	 10.38 │      sqrtps %xmm1,%xmm0
	 12.20 │      sqrtps %xmm1,%xmm0
	 12.74 │      sqrtps %xmm1,%xmm0
	  5.40 │      sqrtps %xmm1,%xmm0
	 10.14 │      sqrtps %xmm1,%xmm0
	 10.51 │    ↑ jmp    10

We expect all 10 sqrt to get roughly the sample number of samples.

But you can see that the instruction directly after the JMP is
systematically underestimated in the result, due to sampling shadow
effects.

With the new PREC_DIST based sampling this problem is gone and all
instructions show up roughly evenly:

	  9.51 │10:   sqrtps %xmm1,%xmm0
	 11.74 │      sqrtps %xmm1,%xmm0
	 11.84 │      sqrtps %xmm1,%xmm0
	  6.05 │      sqrtps %xmm1,%xmm0
	 10.46 │      sqrtps %xmm1,%xmm0
	 12.25 │      sqrtps %xmm1,%xmm0
	 12.18 │      sqrtps %xmm1,%xmm0
	  5.26 │      sqrtps %xmm1,%xmm0
	 10.13 │      sqrtps %xmm1,%xmm0
	 10.43 │      sqrtps %xmm1,%xmm0
	  0.16 │    ↑ jmp    10

Even with PREC_DIST there is still sampling skid and the result is not
completely even, but systematic shadow effects are significantly
reduced.

The improvements are mainly expected to make a difference in high IPC
code. With low IPC it should be similar.

      perf/x86: Use INST_RETIRED.TOTAL_CYCLES_PS for cycles:pp for Skylake · 442f5c74
      由 Andi Kleen 提交于 
      I added UOPS_RETIRED.ALL by mistake to the Skylake PEBS event list for
cycles:pp. But the event is not documented for Skylake, and has some
issues.

The recommended replacement for cycles:pp is to use
INST_RETIRED.ANY+pebs as a base, similar to what CPUs before Sandy
Bridge did. This new event is called INST_RETIRED.TOTAL_CYCLES_PS. The
event is not really new, but has been already used by perf before
Sandy Bridge for the original cycles:p

Note the SDM doesn't document that event either, but it's being
documented in the latest version of the event list on:

  https://download.01.org/perfmon/SKL

This patch does:

 - Remove UOPS_RETIRED.ALL from the Skylake PEBS event list

 - Add INST_RETIRED.ANY to the Skylake PEBS event list, and an table entry to
   allow cmask=16,inv=1 for cycles:pp

 - We don't need an extra entry for the base INST_RETIRED event,
   because it is already covered by the catch-all PEBS table entry.

 - Switch Skylake to use the Core2 PEBS alias (which is
   INST_RETIRED.TOTAL_CYCLES_PS)

      perf/x86: Handle multiple umask bits for BDW CYCLE_ACTIVITY.* · b7883a1c
      由 Andi Kleen 提交于 
      The earlier constraint fix for Broadwell CYCLE_ACTIVITY.*
forced umask 8 to counter 2. For this it used UEVENT,
to match the complete umask.

The event list for Broadwell has an additional
STALLS_L1D_PENDIND event that uses umask 8, but also
sets other bits in the umask.  The earlier strict umask match
didn't handle this case.

Add a new UBIT_EVENT constraint macro that only matches
the specified bits in the umask. Then use that macro
to handle CYCLE_ACTIVITY.* on Broadwell.

The documented event also uses cmask, but there's no
need to let the event scheduler know about the cmask,
as the scheduling restriction is only tied to the umask.

      perf/x86/intel: Implement batched PEBS interrupt handling (large PEBS interrupt threshold) · 3569c0d7
      由 Yan, Zheng 提交于 
      PEBS always had the capability to log samples to its buffers without
an interrupt. Traditionally perf has not used this but always set the
PEBS threshold to one.

For frequently occurring events (like cycles or branches or load/store)
this in term requires using a relatively high sampling period to avoid
overloading the system, by only processing PMIs. This in term increases
sampling error.

For the common cases we still need to use the PMI because the PEBS
hardware has various limitations. The biggest one is that it can not
supply a callgraph. It also requires setting a fixed period, as the
hardware does not support adaptive period. Another issue is that it
cannot supply a time stamp and some other options. To supply a TID it
requires flushing on context switch. It can however supply the IP, the
load/store address, TSX information, registers, and some other things.

So we can make PEBS work for some specific cases, basically as long as
you can do without a callgraph and can set the period you can use this
new PEBS mode.

The main benefit is the ability to support much lower sampling period
(down to -c 1000) without extensive overhead.

One use cases is for example to increase the resolution of the c2c tool.
Another is double checking when you suspect the standard sampling has
too much sampling error.

Some numbers on the overhead, using cycle soak, comparing the elapsed
time from "kernbench -M -H" between plain (threshold set to one) and
multi (large threshold).

The test command for plain:
  "perf record --time -e cycles:p -c $period -- kernbench -M -H"

The test command for multi:
  "perf record --no-time -e cycles:p -c $period -- kernbench -M -H"

( The only difference of test command between multi and plain is time
  stamp options. Since time stamp is not supported by large PEBS
  threshold, it can be used as a flag to indicate if large threshold is
  enabled during the test. )

	period    plain(Sec)  multi(Sec)  Delta
	10003     32.7        16.5        16.2
	20003     30.2        16.2        14.0
	40003     18.6        14.1        4.5
	80003     16.8        14.6        2.2
	100003    16.9        14.1        2.8
	800003    15.4        15.7        -0.3
	1000003   15.3        15.2        0.2
	2000003   15.3        15.1        0.1

With periods below 100003, plain (threshold one) cause much more
overhead. With 10003 sampling period, the Elapsed Time for multi is
even 2X faster than plain.

      perf/x86/intel: Use the PEBS auto reload mechanism when possible · 851559e3
      由 Yan, Zheng 提交于 
      When a fixed period is specified, this patch makes perf use the PEBS
auto reload mechanism. This makes normal profiling faster, because
it avoids one costly MSR write in the PMI handler.

However, the reset value will be loaded by hardware assist. There is a
small delay compared to the previous non-auto-reload mechanism. The
delay time is arbitrary, but very small. The assist cost is 400-800
cycles, assuming common cases with everything cached. The minimum period
the patch currently uses is 10000. In that extreme case it can be ~10%
if cycles are used.

      perf/x86/intel: Remove intel_excl_states::init_state · 43ef205b
      由 Peter Zijlstra 提交于 
      For some obscure reason intel_{start,stop}_scheduling() copy the HT
state to an intermediate array. This would make sense if we ever were
to make changes to it which we'd have to discard.

Except we don't. By the time we call intel_commit_scheduling() we're;
as the name implies; committed to them. We'll never back out.

A further hint its pointless is that stop_scheduling() unconditionally
publishes the state.

So the intermediate array is pointless, modify the state in place and
kill the extra array.

And remove the pointless array initialization: INTEL_EXCL_UNUSED == 0.

Note; all is serialized by intel_excl_cntr::lock.

      perf/x86/intel: Make WARN()ings consistent · 17186ccd
      由 Peter Zijlstra 提交于 
      The intel_commit_scheduling() callback is pointlessly different from
the start and stop scheduling callback.

Furthermore, the constraint should never be NULL, so remove that test.

Even though we'll never get called (because we NULL the callbacks)
when !is_ht_workaround_enabled() put that test in.

Collapse the (pointless) WARN_ON_ONCE() and bail on !cpuc->excl_cntrs --
this is doubly pointless, because its the same condition as
is_ht_workaround_enabled() which was already pointless because the
whole method won't ever be called.

Furthremore, make all the !excl_cntrs test WARN_ON_ONCE(); they're all
pointless, because the above, either the function
({get,put}_excl_constraint) are already predicated on it existing or
the is_ht_workaround_enabled() thing is the same test.
