This patch renames struct hw_perf_counter_ops into struct pmu. It introduces a structure to describe a cpu specific pmu (performance monitoring unit). It may contain ops and data. The new name of the structure fits better, is shorter, and thus better to handle. Where it was appropriate, names of function and variable have been changed too.

Currently the definition of an event is slightly ambiguous. We have wakeup events, for poll() and SIGIO, which are either generated when a record crosses a page boundary (hw_events.wakeup_events == 0), or every wakeup_events new records. Now a record can be either a counter overflow record, or a number of different things, like the mmap PROT_EXEC region notifications. Then there is the PERF_COUNTER_IOC_REFRESH event limit, which only considers counter overflows. This patch changes then wakeup_events and SIGIO notification to only consider overflow events. Furthermore it changes the SIGIO notification to report SIGHUP when the event limit is reached and the counter will be disabled.

Paul noted that we don't need SMP barriers for the mmap() counter read because its always on the same cpu (otherwise you can't access the hw counter anyway). So remove the SMP barriers and replace them with regular compiler barriers. Further, update the comment to include a race free method of reading said hardware counter. The primary change is putting the pmc_read inside the seq-loop, otherwise we can still race and read rubbish.

It just occured to me it is possible to have multiple contending updates of the userpage (mmap information vs overflow vs counter). This would break the seqlock logic. It appear the arch code uses this from NMI context, so we cannot possibly serialize its use, therefore separate the data_head update from it and let it return to its original use. The arch code needs to make sure there are no contending callers by disabling the counter before using it -- powerpc appears to do this nicely.

While going over the wakeup code I noticed delayed wakeups only work for hardware counters but basically all software counters rely on them. This patch unifies and generalizes the delayed wakeup to fix this issue. Since we're dealing with NMI context bits here, use a cmpxchg() based single link list implementation to track counters that have pending wakeups. [ This should really be generic code for delayed wakeups, but since we cannot use cmpxchg()/xchg() in generic code, I've let it live in the perf_counter code. -- Eric Dumazet could use it to aggregate the network wakeups. ] Furthermore, the x86 method of using TIF flags was flawed in that its quite possible to end up setting the bit on the idle task, loosing the wakeup. The powerpc method uses per-cpu storage and does appear to be sufficient.

Impact: new functionality Currently, if there are more counters enabled than can fit on the CPU, the kernel will multiplex the counters on to the hardware using round-robin scheduling. That isn't too bad for sampling counters, but for counting counters it means that the value read from a counter represents some unknown fraction of the true count of events that occurred while the counter was enabled. This remedies the situation by keeping track of how long each counter is enabled for, and how long it is actually on the cpu and counting events. These times are recorded in nanoseconds using the task clock for per-task counters and the cpu clock for per-cpu counters. These values can be supplied to userspace on a read from the counter. Userspace requests that they be supplied after the counter value by setting the PERF_FORMAT_TOTAL_TIME_ENABLED and/or PERF_FORMAT_TOTAL_TIME_RUNNING bits in the hw_event.read_format field when creating the counter. (There is no way to change the read format after the counter is created, though it would be possible to add some way to do that.) Using this information it is possible for userspace to scale the count it reads from the counter to get an estimate of the true count: true_count_estimate = count * total_time_enabled / total_time_running This also lets userspace detect the situation where the counter never got to go on the cpu: total_time_running == 0. This functionality has been requested by the PAPI developers, and will be generally needed for interpreting the count values from counting counters correctly. In the implementation, this keeps 5 time values (in nanoseconds) for each counter: total_time_enabled and total_time_running are used when the counter is in state OFF or ERROR and for reporting back to userspace. When the counter is in state INACTIVE or ACTIVE, it is the tstamp_enabled, tstamp_running and tstamp_stopped values that are relevant, and total_time_enabled and total_time_running are determined from them. (tstamp_stopped is only used in INACTIVE state.) The reason for doing it like this is that it means that only counters being enabled or disabled at sched-in and sched-out time need to be updated. There are no new loops that iterate over all counters to update total_time_enabled or total_time_running. This also keeps separate child_total_time_running and child_total_time_enabled fields that get added in when reporting the totals to userspace. They are separate fields so that they can be atomic. We don't want to use atomics for total_time_running, total_time_enabled etc., because then we would have to use atomic sequences to update them, which are slower than regular arithmetic and memory accesses. It is possible to measure total_time_running by adding a task_clock counter to each group of counters, and total_time_enabled can be measured approximately with a top-level task_clock counter (though inaccuracies will creep in if you need to disable and enable groups since it is not possible in general to disable/enable the top-level task_clock counter simultaneously with another group). However, that adds extra overhead - I measured around 15% increase in the context switch latency reported by lat_ctx (from lmbench) when a task_clock counter was added to each of 2 groups, and around 25% increase when a task_clock counter was added to each of 4 groups. (In both cases a top-level task-clock counter was also added.) In contrast, the code added in this commit gives better information with no overhead that I could measure (in fact in some cases I measured lower times with this code, but the differences were all less than one standard deviation).

Impact: Rework the perfcounter output ABI use sys_read() only for instant data and provide mmap() output for all async overflow data. The first mmap() determines the size of the output buffer. The mmap() size must be a PAGE_SIZE multiple of 1+pages, where pages must be a power of 2 or 0. Further mmap()s of the same fd must have the same size. Once all maps are gone, you can again mmap() with a new size. In case of 0 extra pages there is no data output and the first page only contains meta data. When there are data pages, a poll() event will be generated for each full page of data. Furthermore, the output is circular. This means that although 1 page is a valid configuration, its useless, since we'll start overwriting it the instant we report a full page. Future work will focus on the output format (currently maintained) where we'll likey want each entry denoted by a header which includes a type and length. Further future work will allow to splice() the fd, also containing the async overflow data -- splice() would be mutually exclusive with mmap() of the data.

Impact: new feature giving performance improvement This adds the ability for userspace to do an mmap on a hardware counter fd and get access to a read-only page that contains the information needed to translate a hardware counter value to the full 64-bit counter value that would be returned by a read on the fd. This is useful on architectures that allow user programs to read the hardware counters, such as PowerPC. The mmap will only succeed if the counter is a hardware counter monitoring the current process. On my quad 2.5GHz PowerPC 970MP machine, userspace can read a counter and translate it to the full 64-bit value in about 30ns using the mmapped page, compared to about 830ns for the read syscall on the counter, so this does give a significant performance improvement.

Impact: build fix for powerpc Commit db3a944aca35ae61 ("perf_counter: revamp syscall input ABI") expanded the hw_event.type field into a union of structs containing bitfields. In particular it introduced a type field and a raw_type field, with the intention that the 1-bit raw_type field should overlay the most-significant bit of the 8-bit type field, and in fact perf_counter_alloc() now assumes that (or at least, assumes that raw_type doesn't overlay any of the bits that are 1 in the values of PERF_TYPE_{HARDWARE,SOFTWARE,TRACEPOINT}). Unfortunately this is not true on big-endian systems such as PowerPC, where bitfields are laid out from left to right, i.e. from most significant bit to least significant. This means that setting hw_event.type = PERF_TYPE_SOFTWARE will set hw_event.raw_type to 1. This fixes it by making the layout depend on whether or not __BIG_ENDIAN_BITFIELD is defined. It's a bit ugly, but that's what we get for using bitfields in a user/kernel ABI. Also, that commit didn't fix up some places in arch/powerpc/kernel/ perf_counter.c where hw_event.raw and hw_event.event_id were used. This fixes them too.

Impact: modify ABI The hardware/software classification in hw_event->type became a little strained due to the addition of tracepoint tracing. Instead split up the field and provide a type field to explicitly specify the counter type, while using the event_id field to specify which event to use. Raw counters still work as before, only the raw config now goes into raw_event.

Impact: new perfcounters feature Enable usage of tracepoints as perf counter events. tracepoint event ids can be found in /debug/tracing/event/*/*/id and (for now) are represented as -65536+id in the type field.
