* s390/irq: remove split irq fields from /proc/statHeiko Carstens2013-01-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that irq sum accounting for /proc/stat's "intr" line works again we have the oddity that the sum field (first field) contains only the sum of the second (external irqs) and third field (I/O interrupts). The reason for that is that these two fields are already sums of all other fields. So if we would sum up everything we would count every interrupt twice. This is broken since the split interrupt accounting was merged two years ago: 052ff461c8427629aee887ccc27478fc7373237c "[S390] irq: have detailed statistics for interrupt types". To fix this remove the split interrupt fields from /proc/stat's "intr" line again and only have them in /proc/interrupts. This restores the old behaviour, seems to be the only sane fix and mimics a behaviour from other architectures where /proc/interrupts also contains more than /proc/stat's "intr" line does.

I've built all the working defconfigs from all the arches that I can and made sure that they don't break. The reason for these patches is that I recently encountered a circular dependency problem that came about when I produced some patches to optimise get_order() by rewriting it to use ilog2(). This uses bitops - and on the SH arch asm/bitops.h drags in asm-generic/get_order.h by a circuituous route involving asm/system.h. The main difficulty seems to be asm/system.h. It holds a number of low level bits with no/few dependencies that are commonly used (eg. memory barriers) and a number of bits with more dependencies that aren't used in many places (eg. switch_to()). These patches break asm/system.h up into the following core pieces: (1) asm/barrier.h Move memory barriers here. This already done for MIPS and Alpha. (2) asm/switch_to.h Move switch_to() and related stuff here. (3) asm/exec.h Move arch_align_stack() here. Other process execution related bits could perhaps go here from asm/processor.h. (4) asm/cmpxchg.h Move xchg() and cmpxchg() here as they're full word atomic ops and frequently used by atomic_xchg() and atomic_cmpxchg(). (5) asm/bug.h Move die() and related bits. (6) asm/auxvec.h Move AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH here. Other arch headers are created as needed on a per-arch basis." Fixed up some conflicts from other header file cleanups and moving code around that has happened in the meantime, so David's testing is somewhat weakened by that.

* [S390] irq: external interrupt code passingHeiko Carstens2012-03-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The external interrupt handlers have a parameter called ext_int_code. Besides the name this paramter does not only contain the ext_int_code but in addition also the "cpu address" (POP) which caused the external interrupt. To make the code a bit more obvious pass a struct instead so the called function can easily distinguish between external interrupt code and cpu address. The cpu address field however is named "subcode" since some external interrupt sources do not pass a cpu address but a different parameter (or none at all).

| | * oprofile, s390: Add event interface to the System z hardware sampling moduleAndreas Krebbel2011-12-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With this patch the OProfile Basic Mode Sampling support for System z is enhanced with a counter file system. That way hardware sampling can be configured using the user space tools with only little modifications. With the patch by default new cpu_types (s390/z10, s390/z196) are returned in order to indicate that we are running a CPU which provides the hardware sampling facility. Existing user space tools will complain about an unknown cpu type. In order to be compatible with existing user space tools the `cpu_type' module parameter has been added. Setting the parameter to `timer' will force the module to return `timer' as cpu_type. The module will still try to use hardware sampling if available and the hwsampling virtual filesystem will be also be available for configuration. So this has a different effect than using the generic oprofile module parameter `timer=1'. If the basic mode sampling is enabled on the machine and the cpu_type=timer parameter is not used the kernel module will provide the following virtual filesystem: /dev/oprofile/0/enabled /dev/oprofile/0/event /dev/oprofile/0/count /dev/oprofile/0/unit_mask /dev/oprofile/0/kernel /dev/oprofile/0/user In the counter file system only the values of 'enabled', 'count', 'kernel', and 'user' are evaluated by the kernel module. Everything else must contain fixed values. The 'event' value only supports a single event - HWSAMPLING with value 0. The 'count' value specifies the hardware sampling rate as it is passed to the CPU measurement facility. The 'kernel' and 'user' flags can now be used to filter for samples when using hardware sampling. Additionally also the following file will be created: /dev/oprofile/timer/enabled This will always be the inverted value of /dev/oprofile/0/enabled. 0 is not accepted without hardware sampling.

* oprofile, s390: Rework hwsampler implementationRobert Richter2011-02-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch is a rework of the hwsampler oprofile implementation that has been applied recently. Now there are less non-architectural changes. The only changes are: * introduction of oprofile_add_ext_hw_sample(), and * removal of section attributes of oprofile_timer_init/_exit(). To setup hwsampler for oprofile we need to modify start()/stop() callbacks and additional hwsampler control files in oprofilefs. We do not reinitialize the timer or hwsampler mode by restarting calling init/exit() anymore, instead hwsampler_running is used to switch the mode directly in oprofile_hwsampler_start/_stop(). For locking reasons there is also hwsampler_file that reflects the value in oprofilefs. The overall diffstat of the oprofile s390 hwsampler implemenation shows the low impact to non-architectural code: arch/Kconfig | 3 + arch/s390/Kconfig | 1 + arch/s390/oprofile/Makefile | 2 +- arch/s390/oprofile/hwsampler.c | 1256 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ arch/s390/oprofile/hwsampler.h | 113 +++ arch/s390/oprofile/hwsampler_files.c | 162 +++++ arch/s390/oprofile/init.c | 6 +- drivers/oprofile/cpu_buffer.c | 24 +- drivers/oprofile/timer_int.c | 4 +- include/linux/oprofile.h | 7 + 10 files changed, 1567 insertions(+), 11 deletions(-) Acked-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Robert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com>

The patch invokes hwsampler_setup() during oprofile init and exports following hwsampler files under oprofilefs if hwsampler's setup succeeded: A new directory for hardware sampling based files /dev/oprofile/hwsampling/ The userland daemon must explicitly write to the following files to disable (or enable) hardware based sampling /dev/oprofile/hwsampling/hwsampler to modify the actual sampling rate /dev/oprofile/hwsampling/hw_interval to modify the amount of sampling memory (measured in 4K pages) /dev/oprofile/hwsampling/hw_sdbt_blocks The following files are read only and show the possible minimum sampling rate /dev/oprofile/hwsampling/hw_min_interval the possible maximum sampling rate /dev/oprofile/hwsampling/hw_max_interval The patch splits the oprofile_timer_[init/exit] function so that it can be also called through user context (oprofilefs) to avoid kernel oops.

* oprofile, s390: Add support for hardware based sampling on System z processorsHeinz Graalfs2011-02-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds support for hardware based sampling on System z processors (models z10 and up). System z's hardware sampling is described in detail in: SA23-2260-01 "The Load-Program-Parameter and CPU-Measurement Facilities" The patch introduces - support for System z's hardware sampler in OProfile's kernel module - it adds functions that control all hardware sampling related operations as: - checking if hardware sampling feature is available, i.e.: on System z models z10 and up, in LPAR mode only, and authorised during LPAR activation - allocating memory for the hardware sampling feature - starting/stopping hardware sampling All functions required to start and stop hardware sampling have to be invoked by the oprofile kernel module as provided by the other patches of this patch set. In case hardware based sampling cannot be setup standard timer based sampling is used by OProfile.

* Combine instrumentation menus in kernel/Kconfig.instrumentationMathieu Desnoyers2007-10-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Quoting Randy: "It seems sad that this patch sources Kconfig.marker, a 7-line file, 20-something times. Yes, you (we) don't want to put those 7 lines into 20-something different files, so sourcing is the right thing. However, what you did for avr32 seems more on the right track to me: make _one_ Instrumentation support menu that includes PROFILING, OPROFILE, KPROBES, and MARKERS and then use (source) that in all of the arches."

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
