      perf: Add support for supplementary event registers · a7e3ed1e
      Andi Kleen 提交于
      Change logs against Andi's original version:
      
      - Extends perf_event_attr:config to config{,1,2} (Peter Zijlstra)
      - Fixed a major event scheduling issue. There cannot be a ref++ on an
        event that has already done ref++ once and without calling
        put_constraint() in between. (Stephane Eranian)
      - Use thread_cpumask for percore allocation. (Lin Ming)
      - Use MSR names in the extra reg lists. (Lin Ming)
      - Remove redundant "c = NULL" in intel_percore_constraints
      - Fix comment of perf_event_attr::config1
      
      Intel Nehalem/Westmere have a special OFFCORE_RESPONSE event
      that can be used to monitor any offcore accesses from a core.
      This is a very useful event for various tunings, and it's
      also needed to implement the generic LLC-* events correctly.
      
      Unfortunately this event requires programming a mask in a separate
      register. And worse this separate register is per core, not per
      CPU thread.
      
      This patch:
      
      - Teaches perf_events that OFFCORE_RESPONSE needs extra parameters.
        The extra parameters are passed by user space in the
        perf_event_attr::config1 field.
      
      - Adds support to the Intel perf_event core to schedule per
        core resources. This adds fairly generic infrastructure that
        can be also used for other per core resources.
        The basic code has is patterned after the similar AMD northbridge
        constraints code.
      
      Thanks to Stephane Eranian who pointed out some problems
      in the original version and suggested improvements.

      perf_events: Update PEBS event constraints · 17e31629
      Stephane Eranian 提交于
      This patch updates PEBS event constraints for Intel Atom, Nehalem, Westmere.
      
      This patch also reorganizes the PEBS format/constraint detection code. It is
      now based on processor model and not PEBS format. Two processors may use the
      same PEBS format without have the same list of PEBS events.
      
      In this second version, we simplified the initialization of the PEBS
      constraints by leveraging the existing switch() statement in perf_event_intel.c.
      We also renamed the constraint tables to be more consistent with regular
      constraints.
      
      In this 3rd version, we drop BR_INST_RETIRED.MISPRED from Intel Atom as it does
      not seem to work. Use MISPREDICTED_BRANCH_RETIRED instead. Also add FP_ASSIST.*
      o both Intel Nehalem and Westmere. I misssed those in the earlier patches.
      Events were tested using libpfm4 perf_examples.

      perf, x86: Add Intel SandyBridge CPU support · b06b3d49
      Lin Ming 提交于
      This patch adds basic SandyBridge support, including hardware
      cache events and PEBS events support.
      
      It has been tested on SandyBridge CPUs with perf stat and also
      with PEBS based profiling - both work fine.
      
      The patch does not affect other models.
      
      v2 -> v3:
       - fix PEBS event 0xd0 with right umask combinations
       - move snb pebs constraint assignment to intel_pmu_init
      
      v1 -> v2:
       - add more raw and PEBS events constraints
       - use offcore events for LLC-* cache events
       - remove the call to Nehalem workaround enable_all function
