For software counters, we don't currently have the infrastructure to distinguish which mode an event occurs in, so we currently fail the counter initialization if the setting of the hw_event.exclude_* bits would require us to distinguish. Context switches and CPU migrations are currently considered to occur in kernel mode. On x86, this changes the previous policy that only root can count kernel events. Now non-root users can count kernel events or exclude them. Non-root users still can't use NMI events, though. On x86 we don't appear to have any way to control whether hypervisor events are counted or not, so hw_event.exclude_hv is ignored. On powerpc, the selection of whether to count events in user, kernel and/or hypervisor mode is PMU-wide, not per-counter, so this adds a check that the hw_event.exclude_* settings are the same as other events on the PMU. Counters being added to a group have to have the same settings as the other hardware counters in the group. Counters and groups can only be enabled in hw_perf_group_sched_in or power_perf_enable if they have the same settings as any other counters already on the PMU. If we are not running on a hypervisor, the exclude_hv setting is ignored (by forcing it to 0) since we can't ever get any hypervisor events. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

Conveniently, oprofile unregisters it's notifier when not actively in use, so setting it's notifier priority higher than perfcounter's allows oprofile to borrow the NMI for the duration of it's run. Tested/works both as module and built-in. While testing, I found that if kerneltop was generating NMIs at very high frequency, the kernel may panic when oprofile registered it's handler. This turned out to be because oprofile registers it's handler before reset_value has been allocated, so if an NMI comes in while it's still setting up, kabOom. Rather than try more invasive changes, I followed the lead of other places in op_model_ppro.c, and simply returned in that highly unlikely event.

Their use is transparent to user-space: the counter scheduler is extended to automatically recognize the cases where a fixed-function PMC can be utilized instead of a generic PMC. In such cases the generic PMC is kept available for more counters. The above fixed-function events map to these generic counter hw events: PERF_COUNT_INSTRUCTIONS PERF_COUNT_CPU_CYCLES PERF_COUNT_BUS_CYCLES (The 'bus' cycles are in reality often CPU-ish cycles, just with a fixed frequency.)

Groups of counters behave much like normal 'single' counters, with a few semantic and behavioral extensions on top of that. A counter group is created by creating a new counter with the open() syscall's group-leader group_fd file descriptor parameter pointing to another, already existing counter. Groups of counters are scheduled in and out in one atomic group, and they are also roundrobin-scheduled atomically. Counters that are member of a group can also record events with an (atomic) extended timestamp that extends to all members of the group, if the record type is set to PERF_RECORD_GROUP.

And make use of all these changes in the core and x86 perfcounters code. Also change the syscall signature to: asmlinkage int sys_perf_counter_open( struct perf_counter_hw_event *hw_event_uptr __user, pid_t pid, int cpu, int group_fd); ( Note that group_fd is unused for now - it's reserved for the counter groups abstraction. ) Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
