      perf/x86/intel: Add a separate Arch Perfmon v4 PMI handler · af3bdb99
      Andi Kleen 提交于
      Implements counter freezing for Arch Perfmon v4 (Skylake and
      newer). This allows to speed up the PMI handler by avoiding
      unnecessary MSR writes and make it more accurate.
      
      The Arch Perfmon v4 PMI handler is substantially different than
      the older PMI handler.
      
      Differences to the old handler:
      
      - It relies on counter freezing, which eliminates several MSR
        writes from the PMI handler and lowers the overhead significantly.
      
        It makes the PMI handler more accurate, as all counters get
        frozen atomically as soon as any counter overflows. So there is
        much less counting of the PMI handler itself.
      
        With the freezing we don't need to disable or enable counters or
        PEBS. Only BTS which does not support auto-freezing still needs to
        be explicitly managed.
      
      - The PMU acking is done at the end, not the beginning.
        This makes it possible to avoid manual enabling/disabling
        of the PMU, instead we just rely on the freezing/acking.
      
      - The APIC is acked before reenabling the PMU, which avoids
        problems with LBRs occasionally not getting unfreezed on Skylake.
      
      - Looping is only needed to workaround a corner case which several PMIs
        are very close to each other. For common cases, the counters are freezed
        during PMI handler. It doesn't need to do re-check.
      
      This patch:
      
      - Adds code to enable v4 counter freezing
      - Fork <=v3 and >=v4 PMI handlers into separate functions.
      - Add kernel parameter to disable counter freezing. It took some time to
        debug counter freezing, so in case there are new problems we added an
        option to turn it off. Would not expect this to be used until there
        are new bugs.
      - Only for big core. The patch for small core will be posted later
        separately.
      
      Performance:
      
      When profiling a kernel build on Kabylake with different perf options,
      measuring the length of all NMI handlers using the nmi handler
      trace point:
      
      V3 is without counter freezing.
      V4 is with counter freezing.
      The value is the average cost of the PMI handler.
      (lower is better)

      perf/x86/intel: Support PEBS on fixed counters · 4f08b625
      Kan Liang 提交于
      The Extended PEBS feature supports PEBS on fixed-function performance
      counters as well as all four general purpose counters.
      
      It has to change the order of PEBS and fixed counter enabling to make
      sure PEBS is enabled for the fixed counters.
      
      The change of the order doesn't impact the behavior of current code on
      other platforms which don't support extended PEBS.
      Because there is no dependency among those enable/disable functions.
      
      Don't enable IRQ generation (0x8) for MSR_ARCH_PERFMON_FIXED_CTR_CTRL.
      The PEBS ucode will handle the interrupt generation.

      perf/x86/intel: Fix unwind errors from PEBS entries (mk-II) · 6cbc304f
      Peter Zijlstra 提交于
      Vince reported the perf_fuzzer giving various unwinder warnings and
      Josh reported:
      
      > Deja vu.  Most of these are related to perf PEBS, similar to the
      > following issue:
      >
      >   b8000586 ("perf/x86/intel: Cure bogus unwind from PEBS entries")
      >
      > This is basically the ORC version of that.  setup_pebs_sample_data() is
      > assembling a franken-pt_regs which ORC isn't happy about.  RIP is
      > inconsistent with some of the other registers (like RSP and RBP).
      
      And where the previous unwinder only needed BP,SP ORC also requires
      IP. But we cannot spoof IP because then the sample will get displaced,
      entirely negating the point of PEBS.
      
      So cure the whole thing differently by doing the unwind early; this
      does however require a means to communicate we did the unwind early.
      We (ab)use an unused sample_type bit for this, which we set on events
      that fill out the data->callchain before the normal
      perf_prepare_sample().

      perf/x86/intel: Add proper condition to run sched_task callbacks · df6c3db8
      Jiri Olsa 提交于
      We have 2 functions using the same sched_task callback:
      
        - PEBS drain for free running counters
        - LBR save/store
      
      Both of them are called from intel_pmu_sched_task() and
      either of them can be unwillingly triggered when the
      other one is configured to run.
      
      Let's say there's PEBS drain configured in sched_task
      callback for the event, but in the callback itself
      (intel_pmu_sched_task()) we will also run the code for
      LBR save/restore, which we did not ask for, but the
      code in intel_pmu_sched_task() does not check for that.
      
      This can lead to extra cycles in some perf monitoring,
      like when we monitor PEBS event without LBR data.
      
        # perf record --no-timestamp -c 10000 -e cycles:p ./perf bench sched pipe -l 1000000
      
        (We need PEBS, non freq/non timestamp event to enable
         the sched_task callback)
      
      The perf stat of cycles and msr:write_msr for above
      command before the change:
        ...
        Performance counter stats for './perf record --no-timestamp -c 10000 -e cycles:p \
                                       ./perf bench sched pipe -l 1000000' (5 runs):
      
          18,519,557,441      cycles:k
              91,195,527      msr:write_msr
      
            29.334476406 seconds time elapsed
      
      And after the change:
        ...
        Performance counter stats for './perf record --no-timestamp -c 10000 -e cycles:p \
                                       ./perf bench sched pipe -l 1000000' (5 runs):
      
          18,704,973,540      cycles:k
              27,184,720      msr:write_msr
      
            16.977875900 seconds time elapsed
      
      There's no affect on cycles:k because the sched_task happens
      with events switched off, however the msr:write_msr tracepoint
      counter together with almost 50% of time speedup show the
      improvement.
      
      Monitoring LBR event and having extra PEBS drain processing
      in sched_task callback showed just a little speedup, because
      the drain function does not do much extra work in case there
      is no PEBS data.
      
      Adding conditions to recognize the configured work that needs
      to be done in the x86_pmu's sched_task callback.

      perf/x86: Add sysfs entry to freeze counters on SMI · 6089327f
      Kan Liang 提交于
      Currently, the SMIs are visible to all performance counters, because
      many users want to measure everything including SMIs. But in some
      cases, the SMI cycles should not be counted - for example, to calculate
      the cost of an SMI itself. So a knob is needed.
      
      When setting FREEZE_WHILE_SMM bit in IA32_DEBUGCTL, all performance
      counters will be effected. There is no way to do per-counter freeze
      on SMI. So it should not use the per-event interface (e.g. ioctl or
      event attribute) to set FREEZE_WHILE_SMM bit.
      
      Adds sysfs entry /sys/device/cpu/freeze_on_smi to set FREEZE_WHILE_SMM
      bit in IA32_DEBUGCTL. When set, freezes perfmon and trace messages
      while in SMM.
      
      Value has to be 0 or 1. It will be applied to all processors.
      
      Also serialize the entire setting so we don't get multiple concurrent
      threads trying to update to different values.

      perf/x86: Fix spurious NMI with PEBS Load Latency event · fd583ad1
      Kan Liang 提交于
      Spurious NMIs will be observed with the following command:
      
        while :; do
          perf record -bae "cpu/umask=0x01,event=0xcd,ldlat=0x80/pp"
                        -e "cpu/umask=0x03,event=0x0/"
                        -e "cpu/umask=0x02,event=0x0/"
                        -e cycles,branches,cache-misses
                        -e cache-references -- sleep 10
        done
      
      The bug was introduced by commit:
      
        8077eca0 ("perf/x86/pebs: Add workaround for broken OVFL status on HSW+")
      
      That commit clears the status bits for the counters used for PEBS
      events, by masking the whole 64 bits pebs_enabled. However, only the
      low 32 bits of both status and pebs_enabled are reserved for PEBS-able
      counters.
      
      For status bits 32-34 are fixed counter overflow bits. For
      pebs_enabled bits 32-34 are for PEBS Load Latency.
      
      In the test case, the PEBS Load Latency event and fixed counter event
      could overflow at the same time. The fixed counter overflow bit will
      be cleared by mistake. Once it is cleared, the fixed counter overflow
      never be processed, which finally trigger spurious NMI.
      
      Correct the PEBS enabled mask by ignoring the non-PEBS bits.

      perf/x86/intel: Handle exclusive threadid correctly on CPU hotplug · 4e71de79
      Zhou Chengming 提交于
      The CPU hotplug function intel_pmu_cpu_starting() sets
      cpu_hw_events.excl_thread_id unconditionally to 1 when the shared exclusive
      counters data structure is already availabe for the sibling thread.
      
      This works during the boot process because the first sibling gets threadid
      0 assigned and the second sibling which shares the data structure gets 1.
      
      But when the first thread of the core is offlined and onlined again it
      shares the data structure with the second thread and gets exclusive thread
      id 1 assigned as well.
      
      Prevent this by checking the threadid of the already online thread.

      perf/x86/pebs: Fix handling of PEBS buffer overflows · daa864b8
      Stephane Eranian 提交于
      This patch solves a race condition between PEBS and the PMU handler.
      
      In case multiple PEBS events are sampled at the same time,
      it is possible to have GLOBAL_STATUS bit 62 set indicating
      PEBS buffer overflow and also seeing at most 3 PEBS counters
      having their bits set in the status register. This is a sign
      that there was at least one PEBS record pending at the time
      of the PMU interrupt. PEBS counters must only be processed
      via the drain_pebs() calls, and not via the regular sample
      processing loop coming after that the function, otherwise
      phony regular samples may be generated in the sampling buffer
      not marked with the EXACT tag.
      
      Another possibility is to have one PEBS event and at least
      one non-PEBS event whic hoverflows while PEBS has armed. In this
      case, bit 62 of GLOBAL_STATUS will not be set, yet the overflow
      status bit for the PEBS counter will be on Skylake.
      
      To avoid this problem, we systematically ignore the PEBS-enabled
      counters from the GLOBAL_STATUS mask and we always process PEBS
      events via drain_pebs().
      
      The problem manifested itself by having non-exact samples when
      sampling only PEBS events, i.e., the PERF_SAMPLE_RECORD would
      not have the EXACT flag set.
      
      Note that this problem is only present on Skylake processor.
      This fix is harmless on older processors.

      perf/x86: Fix full width counter, counter overflow · 7f612a7f
      Peter Zijlstra (Intel) 提交于
      Lukasz reported that perf stat counters overflow handling is broken on KNL/SLM.
      
      Both these parts have full_width_write set, and that does indeed have
      a problem. In order to deal with counter wrap, we must sample the
      counter at at least half the counter period (see also the sampling
      theorem) such that we can unambiguously reconstruct the count.
      
      However commit:
      
        069e0c3c ("perf/x86/intel: Support full width counting")
      
      sets the sampling interval to the full period, not half.
      
      Fixing that exposes another issue, in that we must not sign extend the
      delta value when we shift it right; the counter cannot have
      decremented after all.
      
      With both these issues fixed, counter overflow functions correctly
      again.

      perf/x86/intel: Honour the CPUID for number of fixed counters in hypervisors · f92b7604
      Imre Palik 提交于
      perf doesn't seem to honour the number of fixed counters specified by CPUID
      leaf 0xa. It always assumes that Intel CPUs have at least 3 fixed counters.
      
      So if some of the fixed counters are masked out by the hypervisor, it still
      tries to check/set them.
      
      This patch makes perf behave nicer when the kernel is running under a
      hypervisor that doesn't expose all the counters.
      
      This patch contains some ideas from Matt Wilson.

      perf/x86: Ensure perf_sched_cb_{inc,dec}() is only called from pmu::{add,del}() · 68f7082f
      Peter Zijlstra 提交于
      Currently perf_sched_cb_{inc,dec}() are called from
      pmu::{start,stop}(), which has the problem that this can happen from
      NMI context, this is making it hard to optimize perf_pmu_sched_task().
      
      Furthermore, we really only need this accounting on pmu::{add,del}(),
      so doing it from pmu::{start,stop}() is doing more work than we really
      need.
      
      Introduce x86_pmu::{add,del}() and wire up the LBR and PEBS.
