This patch adds correct AMD NorthBridge event scheduling. NB events are events measuring L3 cache, Hypertransport traffic. They are identified by an event code >= 0xe0. They measure events on the Northbride which is shared by all cores on a package. NB events are counted on a shared set of counters. When a NB event is programmed in a counter, the data actually comes from a shared counter. Thus, access to those counters needs to be synchronized. We implement the synchronization such that no two cores can be measuring NB events using the same counters. Thus, we maintain a per-NB allocation table. The available slot is propagated using the event_constraint structure.

In certain situations, the kernel may need to stop and start the same event rapidly. The current PMU callbacks do not distinguish between stop and release (i.e., stop + free the resource). Thus, a counter may be released, then it will be immediately re-acquired. Event scheduling will again take place with no guarantee to assign the same counter. On some processors, this may event yield to failure to assign the event back due to competion between cores. This patch is adding a new pair of callback to stop and restart a counter without actually release the underlying counter resource. On stop, the counter is stopped, its values saved and that's it. On start, the value is reloaded and counter is restarted (on x86, actual restart is delayed until perf_enable()).

We cannot assume that because hwc->idx == assign[i], we can avoid reprogramming the counter in hw_perf_enable(). The event may have been scheduled out and another event may have been programmed into this counter. Thus, we need a more robust way of verifying if the counter still contains config/data related to an event. This patch adds a generation number to each counter on each cpu. Using this mechanism we can verify reliabilty whether the content of a counter corresponds to an event.

This patch improves event scheduling by maximizing the use of PMU registers regardless of the order in which events are created in a group. The algorithm takes into account the list of counter constraints for each event. It assigns events to counters from the most constrained, i.e., works on only one counter, to the least constrained, i.e., works on any counter. Intel Fixed counter events and the BTS special event are also handled via this algorithm which is designed to be fairly generic. The patch also updates the validation of an event to use the scheduling algorithm. This will cause early failure in perf_event_open(). The 2nd version of this patch follows the model used by PPC, by running the scheduling algorithm and the actual assignment separately. Actual assignment takes place in hw_perf_enable() whereas scheduling is implemented in hw_perf_group_sched_in() and x86_pmu_enable().

When running perf across all cpus with backtracing (-a -g), sometimes we get samples without associated backtraces: 23.44% init [kernel] [k] restore 11.46% init eeba0c [k] 0x00000000eeba0c 6.77% swapper [kernel] [k] .perf_ctx_adjust_freq 5.73% init [kernel] [k] .__trace_hcall_entry 4.69% perf libc-2.9.so [.] 0x0000000006bb8c | |--11.11%-- 0xfffa941bbbc It turns out the backtrace code has a check for the idle task and the IP sampling does not. This creates problems when profiling an interrupt heavy workload (in my case 10Gbit ethernet) since we get no backtraces for interrupts received while idle (ie most of the workload). Right now x86 and sh check that current is not NULL, which should never happen so remove that too. Idle task's exclusion must be performed from the core code, on top of perf_event_attr:exclude_idle.

Pass the frame pointer from the regs of the interrupted path to dump_trace() while processing the stack trace. Currently, dump_trace() takes the current bp and starts the callchain from dump_trace() itself. This is wasteful because we need to walk through the entire NMI/DEBUG stack before retrieving the interrupted point. We can fix that by just using the frame pointer from the captured regs. It points exactly where we want to start.

perf events, x86/stacktrace: Fix performance/softlockup by providing a special frame pointer-only stack walker It's just wasteful for stacktrace users like perf to walk through every entries on the stack whereas these only accept reliable ones, ie: that the frame pointer validates.

The current print_context_stack helper that does the stack walking job is good for usual stacktraces as it walks through all the stack and reports even addresses that look unreliable, which is nice when we don't have frame pointers for example.

On some Intel processors, not all events can be measured in all counters. Some events can only be measured in one particular counter, for instance. Assigning an event to the wrong counter does not crash the machine but this yields bogus counts, i.e., silent error. This patch changes the event to counter assignment logic to take into account event constraints for Intel P6, Core and Nehalem processors. There is no contraints on Intel Atom. There are constraints on Intel Yonah (Core Duo) but they are not provided in this patch given that this processor is not yet supported by perf_events. As a result of the constraints, it is possible for some event groups to never actually be loaded onto the PMU if they contain two events which can only be measured on a single counter. That situation can be detected with the scaling information extracted with read().
