* powerpc/oprofile: Fix marked events support on Power7+ not set.Carl E. Love2012-09-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Starting with Power 7+ we need to check for marked events if the SIAR register is valid, i.e. it contains the correct address of the instruction at the time the performance counter overflowed. The mmcra register on Power 7+, contains a new bit to indicate that the contents of the SIAR is valid. If the event is not marked, then the sample is recorded independently of the SIAR valid bit setting. For older processors, there is no SIAR valid bit to check so the samples are always recorded. This is done by forcing the cntr_marked_events bit mask to zero. The code will always record the sample in this case since the bit mask says the event is not a marked event even if it really is a marked event.

* powerpc: Rename 64-bit PVR constants to PVR_fooMichael Ellerman2012-09-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We have an old FIXME in reg.h which points out that we should standardise on PVR_foo for our PVR #defines. Currently we use PVR_ on 32-bit and PV_ on 64-bit. So do that rename and remove the FIXME. Seeing as we're touching all but one usage of __is_processor(), rename it to something less ugly and more indicative of what it does, which is simply to check the PVR version.

* powerpc/oprofile: Handle events that raise an exception without overflowingEric B Munson2011-05-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 0837e3242c73566fc1c0196b4ec61779c25ffc93 fixes a situation on POWER7 where events can roll back if a specualtive event doesn't actually complete. This can raise a performance monitor exception. We need to catch this to ensure that we reset the PMC. In all cases the PMC will be less than 256 cycles from overflow. This patch lifts Anton's fix for the problem in perf and applies it to oprofile as well.

* powerpc: Fix oprofile sampling of marked events on POWER7Maynard Johnson2009-05-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Description ----------- Change ppc64 oprofile kernel driver to use the SLOT bits (MMCRA[37:39]only on older processors where those bits are defined. Background ---------- The performance monitor unit of the 64-bit POWER processor family has the ability to collect accurate instruction-level samples when profiling on marked events (i.e., "PM_MRK_<event-name>"). In processors prior to POWER6, the MMCRA register contained "slot information" that the oprofile kernel driver used to adjust the value latched in the SIAR at the time of a PMU interrupt. But as of POWER6, these slot bits in MMCRA are no longer necessary for oprofile to use, since the SIAR itself holds the accurate sampled instruction address. With POWER6, these MMCRA slot bits were zero'ed out by hardware so oprofile's use of these slot bits was, in effect, a NOP. But with POWER7, these bits are no longer zero'ed out; however, they serve some other purpose rather than slot information. Thus, using these bits on POWER7 to adjust the SIAR value results in samples being attributed to the wrong instructions. The attached patch changes the oprofile kernel driver to ignore these slot bits on all newer processors starting with POWER6.

* powerpc: Expose PMCs & cache topology in sysfs on 32-bitBenjamin Herrenschmidt2008-08-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The file arch/powerpc/kernel/sysfs.c is currently only compiled for 64-bit kernels. It contain code to register CPU sysdevs in sysfs and add various properties such as cache topology and raw access by root to performance monitor counters (PMCs). A lot of that can be re-used as is on 32-bits. This makes the file be built for both, with appropriate ifdef'ing for the few bits that are really 64-bit specific, and adds some support for the raw PMCs for 75x and 74xx processors.

* [CELL] oprofile: add support to OProfile for profiling CELL BE SPUsBob Nelson2007-07-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | From: Maynard Johnson <mpjohn@us.ibm.com> This patch updates the existing arch/powerpc/oprofile/op_model_cell.c to add in the SPU profiling capabilities. In addition, a 'cell' subdirectory was added to arch/powerpc/oprofile to hold Cell-specific SPU profiling code. Exports spu_set_profile_private_kref and spu_get_profile_private_kref which are used by OProfile to store private profile information in spufs data structures. Also incorporated several fixes from other patches (rrn). Check pointer returned from kzalloc. Eliminated unnecessary cast. Better error handling and cleanup in the related area. 64-bit unsigned long parameter was being demoted to 32-bit unsigned int and eventually promoted back to unsigned long.

* [POWERPC] Fix oprofile support for e500 in arch/powerpcAndy Fleming2006-10-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fixed a compile error in building the 85xx support with oprofile, and in the process cleaned up some issues with the fsl_booke performance monitor code. * Reorganized FSL Book-E performance monitoring code so that the 7450 wouldn't be built if the e500 was, and cleaned it up so it was more self-contained. * Added a cpu_setup function for FSL Book-E. The original cpu_setup function prototype had no arguments, assuming that the reg_setup function would copy the required information into variables which represented the registers. This was silly for e500, since it has 1 register per counter (rather than 3 for all counters), so the code has been restructured to have cpu_setup take the current counter config array as an argument, with op_powerpc_setup() invoking op_powerpc_cpu_setup() through on_each_cpu(), and op_powerpc_cpu_setup() invoking the model-specific cpu_setup function with an argument. The argument is ignored on all other platforms at present. * Fixed a confusing line where a trinary operator only had two arguments Signed-off-by: Andrew Fleming <afleming@freescale.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

* [PATCH] powerpc: Merge vdso's and add vdso support to 32 bits kernelBenjamin Herrenschmidt2005-11-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch moves the vdso's to arch/powerpc, adds support for the 32 bits vdso to the 32 bits kernel, rename systemcfg (finally !), and adds some new (still untested) routines to both vdso's: clock_gettime() with support for CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_MONOTONIC, clock_getres() (same clocks) and get_tbfreq() for glibc to retreive the timebase frequency. Tom,Steve: The implementation of get_tbfreq() I've done for 32 bits returns a long long (r3, r4) not a long. This is such that if we ever add support for >4Ghz timebases on ppc32, the userland interface won't have to change. I have tested gettimeofday() using some glibc patches in both ppc32 and ppc64 kernels using 32 bits userland (I haven't had a chance to test a 64 bits userland yet, but the implementation didn't change and was tested earlier). I haven't tested yet the new functions. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
