It is known that PMU isn't working in some virtualized environments. Modify the message issued in that case to mention why hardware PMU isn't usable instead of reporting it to be broken. As a side effect this will correct a little bug in the error message: The error message was meant to be either of level err or info depending on the environment (native or virtualized). As the level is taken from the format string and not the printed string, specifying it via %s and a conditional argument didn't work the way intended.

Historically a lot of these existed because we did not have a distinction between what was modular code and what was providing support to modules via EXPORT_SYMBOL and friends. That changed when we forked out support for the latter into the export.h file. This means we should be able to reduce the usage of module.h in code that is obj-y Makefile or bool Kconfig. In the case of some of these which are modular, we can extend that to also include files that are building basic support functionality but not related to loading or registering the final module; such files also have no need whatsoever for module.h The advantage in removing such instances is that module.h itself sources about 15 other headers; adding significantly to what we feed cpp, and it can obscure what headers we are effectively using. Since module.h was the source for init.h (for __init) and for export.h (for EXPORT_SYMBOL) we consider each instance for the presence of either and replace as needed. In the case of crypto/glue_helper.c we delete a redundant instance of MODULE_LICENSE in order to delete module.h -- the license info is already present at the top of the file. The uncore change warrants a mention too; it is uncore.c that uses module.h and not uncore.h; hence the relocation done there.

We will use it to count how many addresses are in the entry->ip[] array, excluding PERF_CONTEXT_{KERNEL,USER,etc} entries, so that we can really return the number of entries specified by the user via the relevant sysctl, kernel.perf_event_max_contexts, or via the per event perf_event_attr.sample_max_stack knob. This way we keep the perf_sample->ip_callchain->nr meaning, that is the number of entries, be it real addresses or PERF_CONTEXT_ entries, while honouring the max_stack knobs, i.e. the end result will be max_stack entries if we have at least that many entries in a given stack trace.

The default remains 127, which is good for most cases, and not even hit most of the time, but then for some cases, as reported by Brendan, 1024+ deep frames are appearing on the radar for things like groovy, ruby. And in some workloads putting a _lower_ cap on this may make sense. One that is per event still needs to be put in place tho. The new file is: # cat /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_stack 127 Chaging it: # echo 256 > /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_stack # cat /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_stack 256 But as soon as there is some event using callchains we get: # echo 512 > /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_stack -bash: echo: write error: Device or resource busy # Because we only allocate the callchain percpu data structures when there is a user, which allows for changing the max easily, its just a matter of having no callchain users at that point.

Now that local_clock() is explicitly inlined in sched.h, taking its pointer would uninline it in the compilation unit where it's done, making (among other things) comparing pointers to this function produce different results in different compilation units. Case in point, x86 perf core's user page updating function compares event's clock against &local_clock to see if it needs to set zero time offset related bits in the page. This patch fixes the latter by looking at the "use_clockid" event attribute instead, to determine whether local clock is used. Fixing the uninlined local_clock() in perf core is left as an exercise for the author of the prior work.

Introduce an AMD accumlated power reporting mechanism for the Family 15h, Model 60h processor that can be used to calculate the average power consumed by a processor during a measurement interval. The feature support is indicated by CPUID Fn8000_0007_EDX[12]. This feature will be implemented both in hwmon and perf. The current design provides one event to report per package/processor power consumption by counting each compute unit power value. Here the gory details of how the computation is done: * Tsample: compute unit power accumulator sample period * Tref: the PTSC counter period (PTSC: performance timestamp counter) * N: the ratio of compute unit power accumulator sample period to the PTSC period * Jmax: max compute unit accumulated power which is indicated by MSR_C001007b[MaxCpuSwPwrAcc] * Jx/Jy: compute unit accumulated power which is indicated by MSR_C001007a[CpuSwPwrAcc] * Tx/Ty: the value of performance timestamp counter which is indicated by CU_PTSC MSR_C0010280[PTSC] * PwrCPUave: CPU average power i. Determine the ratio of Tsample to Tref by executing CPUID Fn8000_0007. N = value of CPUID Fn8000_0007_ECX[CpuPwrSampleTimeRatio[15:0]]. ii. Read the full range of the cumulative energy value from the new MSR MaxCpuSwPwrAcc. Jmax = value returned. iii. At time x, software reads CpuSwPwrAcc and samples the PTSC. Jx = value read from CpuSwPwrAcc and Tx = value read from PTSC. iv. At time y, software reads CpuSwPwrAcc and samples the PTSC. Jy = value read from CpuSwPwrAcc and Ty = value read from PTSC. v. Calculate the average power consumption for a compute unit over time period (y-x). Unit of result is uWatt: if (Jy < Jx) // Rollover has occurred Jdelta = (Jy + Jmax) - Jx else Jdelta = Jy - Jx PwrCPUave = N * Jdelta * 1000 / (Ty - Tx) Simple example: root@hr-zp:/home/ray/tip# ./tools/perf/perf stat -a -e 'power/power-pkg/' make -j4 CHK include/config/kernel.release CHK include/generated/uapi/linux/version.h CHK include/generated/utsrelease.h CHK include/generated/timeconst.h CHK include/generated/bounds.h CHK include/generated/asm-offsets.h CALL scripts/checksyscalls.sh CHK include/generated/compile.h SKIPPED include/generated/compile.h Building modules, stage 2.

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.

This patch fixes a bug in the filter_events() function. The patch fixes the bug whereby if some mappings did not exist, e.g., STALLED_CYCLES_FRONTEND, then any event after it in the attrs array would disappear from the published list of events in /sys/devices/cpu/events. This could be verified easily on any system post SNB (which do not publish STALLED_CYCLES_FRONTEND): $ ./perf stat -e cycles,ref-cycles true Performance counter stats for 'true': 1,217,348 cycles <not supported> ref-cycles The problem is that in filter_events() there is an assumption that the argument (attrs) is organized in increasing continuous event indexes related to the event_map(). But if we remove the non-supported events by shifing the position in the array, then the lookup x86_pmu.event_map() needs to compensate for it, otherwise we are looking up the wrong index. This patch corrects this problem by compensating for the deleted events and with that ref-cycles reappears (here shown on Haswell): $ perf stat -e ref-cycles,cycles true Performance counter stats for 'true': 4,525,910 ref-cycles 1,064,920 cycles 0.002943888 seconds time elapsed Signed-off-by: NStephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Signed-off-by: NPeter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: Vince Weaver <vincent.weaver@maine.edu> Cc: jolsa@kernel.org Cc: kan.liang@intel.com Fixes: 8300daa2 ("perf/x86: Filter out undefined events from sysfs events attribute") Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1449516805-6637-1-git-send-email-eranian@google.comSigned-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

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.

Change the perf user stack walking to use the new __copy_from_user_nmi(), and split each access into word sized transfer sizes. This allows to inline the complete access and optimize it all into a single load. The main advantage is that this avoids the overhead of double page faults. When normal copy_from_user() fails it reexecutes the copy to compute an accurate number of non copied bytes. This leads to executing the expensive page fault twice. While walking stacks having a fault at some point is relatively common (typically when some part of the program isn't compiled with frame pointers), so this is a large overhead. With the optimized copies we avoid this problem because they only do all accesses once. And of course they're much faster too when the access does not fault because they're just single instructions instead of complex function calls. While profiling a kernel build with -g, the patch brings down the average time of the PMI handler from 966ns to 552ns (-43%).

We currently use PERF_EVENT_TXN flag to determine if we are in the middle of a transaction. If in a transaction, we defer the schedulability checks from pmu->add() operation to the pmu->commit() operation. Now that we have "transaction types" (PERF_PMU_TXN_ADD, PERF_PMU_TXN_READ) we can use the type to determine if we are in a transaction and drop the PERF_EVENT_TXN flag. When PERF_EVENT_TXN is dropped, the cpuhw->group_flag on some architectures becomes unused, so drop that field as well. This is an extension of the Powerpc patch from Peter Zijlstra to s390, Sparc and x86 architectures.

Currently, the PMU interface allows reading only one counter at a time. But some PMUs like the 24x7 counters in Power, support reading several counters at once. To leveage this functionality, extend the transaction interface to support a "transaction type". The first type, PERF_PMU_TXN_ADD, refers to the existing transactions, i.e. used to _schedule_ all the events on the PMU as a group. A second transaction type, PERF_PMU_TXN_READ, will be used in a follow-on patch, by the 24x7 counters to read several counters at once. Extend the transaction interfaces to the PMU to accept a 'txn_flags' parameter and use this parameter to ignore any transactions that are not of type PERF_PMU_TXN_ADD.

Commit 1b7b938f ("perf/x86/intel: Fix PMI handling for Intel PT") conditionally increments active_events in x86_add_exclusive() but unconditionally decrements in x86_del_exclusive(). These extra decrements can lead to the situation where active_events is zero and thus the PMI handler is 'disabled' while we have active events on the PMU generating PMIs. This leads to a truckload of: Uhhuh. NMI received for unknown reason 21 on CPU 28. Do you have a strange power saving mode enabled? Dazed and confused, but trying to continue messages and generally messes up perf. Remove the condition on the increment, double increment balanced by a double decrement is perfectly fine. Restructure the code a little bit to make the unconditional inc a bit more natural.

Intel PT is a separate PMU and it is not using any of the x86_pmu code paths, which means in particular that the active_events counter remains intact when new PT events are created. However, PT uses the generic x86_pmu PMI handler for its PMI handling needs. The problem here is that the latter checks active_events and in case of it being zero, exits without calling the actual x86_pmu.handle_nmi(), which results in unknown NMI errors and massive data loss for PT. The effect is not visible if there are other perf events in the system at the same time that keep active_events counter non-zero, for instance if the NMI watchdog is running, so one needs to disable it to reproduce the problem. At the same time, the active_events counter besides doing what the name suggests also implicitly serves as a PMC hardware and DS area reference counter. This patch adds a separate reference counter for the PMC hardware, leaving active_events for actually counting the events and makes sure it also counts PT and BTS events.

Currently, the intel_bts driver relies on the DS area allocated by the x86_pmu code in its event_init() path, which is a bug: creating a BTS event while no x86_pmu events are present results in a NULL pointer dereference. The same DS area is also used by PEBS sampling, which makes it quite a bit trickier to have a separate one for intel_bts' purposes. This patch makes intel_bts driver use the same DS allocation and reference counting code as x86_pmu to make sure it is always present when either intel_bts or x86_pmu need it.

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.

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.

I stumbled upon an AMD box that had the BIOS using a hardware performance counter. Instead of printing out a warning and continuing, it failed and blocked further perf counter usage. Looking through the history, I found this commit: a5ebe0ba ("perf/x86: Check all MSRs before passing hw check") which tweaked the rules for a Xen guest on an almost identical box and now changed the behaviour. Unfortunately the rules were tweaked incorrectly and will always lead to MSR failures even though the MSRs are completely fine. What happens now is in arch/x86/kernel/cpu/perf_event.c::check_hw_exists(): <snip> for (i = 0; i < x86_pmu.num_counters; i++) { reg = x86_pmu_config_addr(i); ret = rdmsrl_safe(reg, &val); if (ret) goto msr_fail; if (val & ARCH_PERFMON_EVENTSEL_ENABLE) { bios_fail = 1; val_fail = val; reg_fail = reg; } } <snip> /* * Read the current value, change it and read it back to see if it * matches, this is needed to detect certain hardware emulators * (qemu/kvm) that don't trap on the MSR access and always return 0s. */ reg = x86_pmu_event_addr(0); ^^^^ if the first perf counter is enabled, then this routine will always fail because the counter is running. :-( if (rdmsrl_safe(reg, &val)) goto msr_fail; val ^= 0xffffUL; ret = wrmsrl_safe(reg, val); ret |= rdmsrl_safe(reg, &val_new); if (ret || val != val_new) goto msr_fail; The above bios_fail used to be a 'goto' which is why it worked in the past. Further, most vendors have migrated to using fixed counters to hide their evilness hence this problem rarely shows up now days except on a few old boxes. I fixed my problem and kept the spirit of the original Xen fix, by recording a safe non-enable register to be used safely for the reading/writing check. Because it is not enabled, this passes on bare metal boxes (like metal), but should continue to throw an msr_fail on Xen guests because the register isn't emulated yet. Now I get a proper bios_fail error message and Xen should still see their msr_fail message (untested).

The (SNB/IVB/HSW) HT bug only affects events that can be programmed onto GP counters, therefore we should only limit the number of GP counters that can be used per cpu -- iow we should not constrain the FP counters. Furthermore, we should only enfore such a limit when there are in fact exclusive events being scheduled on either sibling.

Commit 43b45780 ("perf/x86: Reduce stack usage of x86_schedule_events()") violated the rule that 'fake' scheduling; as used for event/group validation; should not change the event state. This went mostly un-noticed because repeated calls of x86_pmu::get_event_constraints() would give the same result. And x86_pmu::put_event_constraints() would mostly not do anything. Commit e979121b ("perf/x86/intel: Implement cross-HT corruption bug workaround") made the situation much worse by actually setting the event->hw.constraint value to NULL, so when validation and actual scheduling interact we get NULL ptr derefs. Fix it by removing the constraint pointer from the event and move it back to an array, this time in cpuc instead of on the stack. validate_group() x86_schedule_events() event->hw.constraint = c; # store <context switch> perf_task_event_sched_in() ... x86_schedule_events(); event->hw.constraint = c2; # store ... put_event_constraints(event); # assume failure to schedule intel_put_event_constraints() event->hw.constraint = NULL; <context switch end> c = event->hw.constraint; # read -> NULL if (!test_bit(hwc->idx, c->idxmsk)) # <- *BOOM* NULL deref This in particular is possible when the event in question is a cpu-wide event and group-leader, where the validate_group() tries to add an event to the group.

This patch implements a software workaround for a HW erratum on Intel SandyBridge, IvyBridge and Haswell processors with Hyperthreading enabled. The errata are documented for each processor in their respective specification update documents: - SandyBridge: BJ122 - IvyBridge: BV98 - Haswell: HSD29 The bug causes silent counter corruption across hyperthreads only when measuring certain memory events (0xd0, 0xd1, 0xd2, 0xd3). Counters measuring those events may leak counts to the sibling counter. For instance, counter 0, thread 0 measuring event 0xd0, may leak to counter 0, thread 1, regardless of the event measured there. The size of the leak is not predictible. It all depends on the workload and the state of each sibling hyper-thread. The corrupting events do undercount as a consequence of the leak. The leak is compensated automatically only when the sibling counter measures the exact same corrupting event AND the workload is on the two threads is the same. Given, there is no way to guarantee this, a work-around is necessary. Furthermore, there is a serious problem if the leaked count is added to a low-occurrence event. In that case the corruption on the low occurrence event can be very large, e.g., orders of magnitude. There is no HW or FW workaround for this problem. The bug is very easy to reproduce on a loaded system. Here is an example on a Haswell client, where CPU0, CPU4 are siblings. We load the CPUs with a simple triad app streaming large floating-point vector. We use 0x81d0 corrupting event (MEM_UOPS_RETIRED:ALL_LOADS) and 0x20cc (ROB_MISC_EVENTS:LBR_INSERTS). Given we are not using the LBR, the 0x20cc event should be zero. $ taskset -c 0 triad & $ taskset -c 4 triad & $ perf stat -a -C 0 -e r81d0 sleep 100 & $ perf stat -a -C 4 -r20cc sleep 10 Performance counter stats for 'system wide': 139 277 291 r20cc 10,000969126 seconds time elapsed In this example, 0x81d0 and r20cc ar eusing sinling counters on CPU0 and CPU4. 0x81d0 leaks into 0x20cc and corrupts it from 0 to 139 millions occurrences. This patch provides a software workaround to this problem by modifying the way events are scheduled onto counters by the kernel. The patch forces cross-thread mutual exclusion between counters in case a corrupting event is measured by one of the hyper-threads. If thread 0, counter 0 is measuring event 0xd0, then nothing can be measured on counter 0, thread 1. If no corrupting event is measured on any hyper-thread, event scheduling proceeds as before. The same example run with the workaround enabled, yield the correct answer: $ taskset -c 0 triad & $ taskset -c 4 triad & $ perf stat -a -C 0 -e r81d0 sleep 100 & $ perf stat -a -C 4 -r20cc sleep 10 Performance counter stats for 'system wide': 0 r20cc 10,000969126 seconds time elapsed The patch does provide correctness for all non-corrupting events. It does not "repatriate" the leaked counts back to the leaking counter. This is planned for a second patch series. This patch series makes this repatriation more easy by guaranteeing the sibling counter is not measuring any useful event. The patch introduces dynamic constraints for events. That means that events which did not have constraints, i.e., could be measured on any counters, may now be constrained to a subset of the counters depending on what is going on the sibling thread. The algorithm is similar to a cache coherency protocol. We call it XSU in reference to Exclusive, Shared, Unused, the 3 possible states of a PMU counter. As a consequence of the workaround, users may see an increased amount of event multiplexing, even in situtations where there are fewer events than counters measured on a CPU. Patch has been tested on all three impacted processors. Note that when HT is off, there is no corruption. However, the workaround is still enabled, yet not costing too much. Adding a dynamic detection of HT on turned out to be complex are requiring too much to code to be justified. This patch addresses the issue when PEBS is not used. A subsequent patch fixes the problem when PEBS is used.

This patch adds an index parameter to the get_event_constraint() x86_pmu callback. It is expected to represent the index of the event in the cpuc->event_list[] array. When the callback is used for fake_cpuc (evnet validation), then the index must be -1. The motivation for passing the index is to use it to index into another cpuc array.
