Currently, we use opcode(Event and Event-Selector) + emask to look up template in p4_templates. But cache events (L1-dcache-load-misses, LLC-load-misses, etc) use the same event(P4_REPLAY_EVENT) to do the counting, ie, they have the same opcode and emask. So we can not use current lookup mechanism to find the template for cache events. This patch introduces a "key", which is the index into p4_templates. The low 12 bits of CCCR are reserved, so we can hide the "key" in the low 12 bits of hwc->config. We extract the key from hwc->config and then quickly find the template.

Since apic_write() maps to a plain noop in the !CONFIG_X86_LOCAL_APIC case we're safe to remove this conditional compilation and clean up the code a bit.

This should turn on instruction counting on P4s, which was missing in the first version of the new PMU driver. It's inaccurate for now, we still need dependant event to tag mops before we can count them precisely. The result is that the number of instruction may be lifted up.

Ingo reported: | | There's a build failure on -tip with the P4 driver, on UP 32-bit, if | PERF_EVENTS is enabled but UP_APIC is disabled: | | arch/x86/built-in.o: In function `p4_pmu_handle_irq': | perf_event.c:(.text+0xa756): undefined reference to `apic' | perf_event.c:(.text+0xa76e): undefined reference to `apic' | So we have to unmask LVTPC only if we're configured to have one.

The netburst PMU is way different from the "architectural perfomance monitoring" specification that current CPUs use. P4 uses a tuple of ESCR+CCCR+COUNTER MSR registers to handle perfomance monitoring events. A few implementational details: 1) We need a separate x86_pmu::hw_config helper in struct x86_pmu since register bit-fields are quite different from P6, Core and later cpu series. 2) For the same reason is a x86_pmu::schedule_events helper introduced. 3) hw_perf_event::config consists of packed ESCR+CCCR values. It's allowed since in reality both registers only use a half of their size. Of course before making a real write into a particular MSR we need to unpack the value and extend it to a proper size. 4) The tuple of packed ESCR+CCCR in hw_perf_event::config doesn't describe the memory address of ESCR MSR register so that we need to keep a mapping between these tuples used and available ESCR (various P4 events may use same ESCRs but not simultaneously), for this sake every active event has a per-cpu map of hw_perf_event::idx <--> ESCR addresses. 5) Since hw_perf_event::idx is an offset to counter/control register we need to lift X86_PMC_MAX_GENERIC up, otherwise kernel strips it down to 8 registers and event armed may never be turned off (ie the bit in active_mask is set but the loop never reaches this index to check), thanks to Peter Zijlstra Restrictions: - No cascaded counters support (do we ever need them?) - No dependent events support (so PERF_COUNT_HW_INSTRUCTIONS doesn't work for now) - There are events with same counters which can't work simultaneously (need to use intersected ones due to broken counter 1) - No PERF_COUNT_HW_CACHE_ events yet Todo: - Implement dependent events - Need proper hashing for event opcodes (no linear search, good for debugging stage but not in real loads) - Some events counted during a clock cycle -- need to set threshold for them and count every clock cycle just to get summary statistics (ie to behave the same way as other PMUs do) - Need to swicth to use event_constraints - To support RAW events we need to encode a global list of P4 events into p4_templates - Cache events need to be added Event support status matrix: Event status ----------------------------- cycles works cache-references works cache-misses works branch-misses works bus-cycles partially (does not work on 64bit cpu with HT enabled) instruction doesnt work (needs dependent event [mop tagging]) branches doesnt work Signed-off-by: NCyrill Gorcunov <gorcunov@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: NLin Ming <ming.m.lin@intel.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Cc: Robert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> LKML-Reference: <20100311165439.GB5129@lenovo> Signed-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
