Unlike other uncore boxes, IRP boxes live in PCI buses with no UBOX device. For PCI bus without UBOX device, we find the next bus that has UBOX device and use its 'bus to socket' mapping. Besides the counter/control registers in IRP boxes are not properly aligned.

The arch_perf_output_copy_user() default of __copy_from_user_inatomic() returns bytes not copied, while all other argument functions given DEFINE_OUTPUT_COPY() return bytes copied. Since copy_from_user_nmi() is the odd duck out by returning bytes copied where all other *copy_{to,from}* functions return bytes not copied, change it over and ammend DEFINE_OUTPUT_COPY() to expect bytes not copied. Oddly enough DEFINE_OUTPUT_COPY() already returned bytes not copied while expecting its worker functions to return bytes copied.

由 HATAYAMA Daisuke 提交于
Currently show_cpuinfo_core() displays cpu core information only if the number of threads per a whole cores is 2 or larger. However, this condition doesn't care about the number of sockets. For example, this condition doesn't hold on systems with two logical cpus consisting of two sockets and a single core on each socket - yet the topology information would be interesting to see in that case as well. I don't know whether or not there are processors in real world by which such configurations are possible, but at least on vitual machine environments, such configuration can occur, typically when no explicit SMP information is provided in advance. For example, on qemu/KVM, SMP information is specified via -smp command-line option, more specifically, its syntax is: -smp n[,cores=cores][,threads=threads][,sockets=sockets][,maxcpus=maxcpus] If this is not specified, qemu tells configuration with n-sockets, 1-core and 1-thread to the guest machine, on which guest, MP information is not displayed in /proc/cpuinfo. I saw this situation on VMWare guest environment, too. To fix this issue, this patch simply removes the condition because this information is useful even if there's only 1 thread.

OK, so what I'm actually seeing on my WSM is that sched/clock.c is 'broken' for the purpose we're using it for. What triggered it is that my WSM-EP is broken :-( [ 0.001000] tsc: Fast TSC calibration using PIT [ 0.002000] tsc: Detected 2533.715 MHz processor [ 0.500180] TSC synchronization [CPU#0 -> CPU#6]: [ 0.505197] Measured 3 cycles TSC warp between CPUs, turning off TSC clock. [ 0.004000] tsc: Marking TSC unstable due to check_tsc_sync_source failed For some reason it consistently detects TSC skew, even though NHM+ should have a single clock domain for 'reasonable' systems. This marks sched_clock_stable=0, which means that we do fancy stuff to try and get a 'sane' clock. Part of this fancy stuff relies on the tick, clearly that's gone when NOHZ=y. So for idle cpus time gets stuck, until it either wakes up or gets kicked by another cpu. While this is perfectly fine for the scheduler -- it only cares about actually running stuff, and when we're running stuff we're obviously not idle. This does somewhat break down for perf which can trigger events just fine on an otherwise idle cpu. So I've got NMIs get get 'measured' as taking ~1ms, which actually don't last nearly that long: <idle>-0 [013] d.h. 886.311970: rcu_nmi_enter <-do_nmi ... <idle>-0 [013] d.h. 886.311997: perf_sample_event_took: HERE!!! : 1040990 So ftrace (which uses sched_clock(), not the fancy bits) only sees ~27us, but we measure ~1ms !!

由 Jan Beulich 提交于
struct cpu_dev's c_models is only ever set inside CONFIG_X86_32 conditionals (or code that's being built for 32-bit only), so there's no use of reserving the (empty) space for the model names in a 64-bit kernel. Similarly, c_size_cache is only used in the #else of a CONFIG_X86_64 conditional, so reserving space for (and in one case even initializing) that field is pointless for 64-bit kernels too. While moving both fields to the end of the structure, I also noticed that: - the c_models array size was one too small, potentially causing table_lookup_model() to return garbage on Intel CPUs (intel.c's instance was lacking the sentinel with family being zero), so the patch bumps that by one, - c_models' vendor sub-field was unused (and anyway redundant with the base structure's c_x86_vendor field), so the patch deletes it. Also rename the legacy fields so that their legacy nature stands out and comment their declarations.

Convert x86 to use a per-cpu preemption count. The reason for doing so is that accessing per-cpu variables is a lot cheaper than accessing thread_info variables. We still need to save/restore the actual preemption count due to PREEMPT_ACTIVE so we place the per-cpu __preempt_count variable in the same cache-line as the other hot __switch_to() variables such as current_task. NOTE: this save/restore is required even for !PREEMPT kernels as cond_resched() also relies on preempt_count's PREEMPT_ACTIVE to ignore task_struct::state. Also rename thread_info::preempt_count to ensure nobody is 'accidentally' still poking at it.

Solve the problems around the broken definition of perf_event_mmap_page:: cap_usr_time and cap_usr_rdpmc fields which used to overlap, partially fixed by: 860f085b ("perf: Fix broken union in 'struct perf_event_mmap_page'") The problem with the fix (merged in v3.12-rc1 and not yet released officially), noticed by Vince Weaver is that the new behavior is not detectable by new user-space, and that due to the reuse of the field names it's easy to mis-compile a binary if old headers are used on a new kernel or new headers are used on an old kernel. To solve all that make this change explicit, detectable and self-contained, by iterating the ABI the following way: - Always clear bit 0, and rename it to usrpage->cap_bit0, to at least not confuse old user-space binaries. RDPMC will be marked as unavailable to old binaries but that's within the ABI, this is a capability bit. - Rename bit 1 to ->cap_bit0_is_deprecated and always set it to 1, so new libraries can reliably detect that bit 0 is deprecated and perma-zero without having to check the kernel version. - Use bits 2, 3, 4 for the newly defined, correct functionality: cap_user_rdpmc : 1, /* The RDPMC instruction can be used to read counts */ cap_user_time : 1, /* The time_* fields are used */ cap_user_time_zero : 1, /* The time_zero field is used */ - Rename all the bitfield names in perf_event.h to be different from the old names, to make sure it's not possible to mis-compile it accidentally with old assumptions. The 'size' field can then be used in the future to add new fields and it will act as a natural ABI version indicator as well. Also adjust tools/perf/ userspace for the new definitions, noticed by Adrian Hunter.

As such, the event may undercount when used with PEBS unless the workaround is implemented. But without this patch and just the workaround, the kernel would not allow precise sampling on this event.

Add TSX event aliases, and export them from the kernel to perf. These are used by perf stat -T and to allow more user friendly access to events. The events are designed to be fairly generic and may also apply to other architectures implementing HTM. They all cover common situations that happens during tuning of transactional code. For Haswell we have to separate the HLE and RTM events, as they are separate in the PMU. This adds the following events: tx-start Count start transaction (used by perf stat -T) tx-commit Count commit of transaction tx-abort Count all aborts tx-conflict Count aborts due to conflict with another CPU. tx-capacity Count capacity aborts (transaction too large) Then matching el-* events for HLE cycles-t Transactional cycles (used by perf stat -T) * also exists on POWER8 cycles-ct Transactional cycles commited (used by perf stat -T) * according to Michael Ellerman POWER8 has a cycles-transactional-committed, * perf stat -T handles both cases Note for useful abort profiling often precise has to be set, as Haswell can only report the point inside the transaction with precise=2. For some classes of aborts, like conflicts, this is not needed, as it makes more sense to look at the complete critical section. This gives a clean set of generalized events to examine transaction success and aborts. Haswell has additional events for TSX, but those are more specialized for very specific situations.

With checkpointed counters there can be a situation where the counter is overflowing, aborts the transaction, is set back to a non overflowing checkpoint, causes interupt. The interrupt doesn't see the overflow because it has been checkpointed. This is then a spurious PMI, typically with a ugly NMI message. It can also lead to excessive aborts. Avoid this problem by: - Using the full counter width for counting counters (earlier patch) - Forbid sampling for checkpointed counters. It's not too useful anyways, checkpointing is mainly for counting. The check is approximate (to still handle KVM), but should catch the majority of cases. - On a PMI always set back checkpointed counters to zero.

There was a bug in the handling of SNB-EP/IVB-EP uncore PCI fixed counters, e.g., IMC. It would cause erratic values to be returned for the IMC clockticks event. This was due to a bogus hwc->config value which was then written to PCI config space. The erratic values can be seen via: $ perf stat -a -C 0 -e uncore_imc_0/clockticks/ -I 1000 sleep 10 The fixed counter has most fields marked as reserved with hw reset values of 0. Yet the kernel was defaulting to a hwc->config = ~0 and that was causing the issues. This patch sets the hwc->config values for fixed uncore event to 0. Now, the values of IMC clockticks is correct.

The IvyBridge event CYCLE_ACTIVITY:CYCLES_LDM_PENDING can only be measured on counters 0-3 when HT is off. When HT is on, you only have counters 0-3. If you program it on the eight counters for 1s on a 3GHz IVB laptop running a noploop, you see: 2 747 527 CYCLE_ACTIVITY:CYCLES_LDM_PENDING 2 747 527 CYCLE_ACTIVITY:CYCLES_LDM_PENDING 2 747 527 CYCLE_ACTIVITY:CYCLES_LDM_PENDING 2 747 527 CYCLE_ACTIVITY:CYCLES_LDM_PENDING 3 280 563 608 CYCLE_ACTIVITY:CYCLES_LDM_PENDING 3 280 563 608 CYCLE_ACTIVITY:CYCLES_LDM_PENDING 3 280 563 608 CYCLE_ACTIVITY:CYCLES_LDM_PENDING 3 280 563 608 CYCLE_ACTIVITY:CYCLES_LDM_PENDING Clearly the last 4 values are bogus.

The previous patch doing vmstats for TLB flushes ("mm: vmstats: tlb flush counters") effectively missed UP since arch/x86/mm/tlb.c is only compiled for SMP. UP systems do not do remote TLB flushes, so compile those counters out on UP. arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mtrr/generic.c calls __flush_tlb() directly. This is probably an optimization since both the mtrr code and __flush_tlb() write cr4. It would probably be safe to make that a flush_tlb_all() (and then get these statistics), but the mtrr code is ancient and I'm hesitant to touch it other than to just stick in the counters.

Silvermont (22nm Atom) has two offcore response configuration MSRs, unlike other Intel CPU, its event code for MSR_OFFCORE_RSP_1 is 0x02b7. To avoid complicating intel_fixup_er(), use INTEL_UEVENT_EXTRA_REG to define MSR_OFFCORE_RSP_X. So intel_fixup_er() can find the event code for OFFCORE_RSP_N by x86_pmu.extra_regs[N].event.

This patch adds support for the SNB-EP PCU uncore PMU extra_sel_bit (bit 21) which is missing from the documentation in Table-2.75 of Intel Xeon Processor E5-2600 Product Family Uncore Performance Monitoring Guide. It is referred to later in Table-2.81. Without this selection bit explicitly enabled by the kernel, some events such as COREx_TRANSITION_CYCLES do not count correctly.

The QPI uncore boxes have two pairs of MATCH/MASK registers that user to filter packet traffic serviced by QPI link layer. These registers are in auxiliary PCI devices. This patch adds the auxiliary PCI devices to snbep_uncore_pci_ids and adds field definitions for the MATCH/MASK registers.
