* perf: Fix the software context switch counterPeter Zijlstra2010-11-26
| | | | | | | | | | | Stephane noticed that because the perf_sw_event() call is inside the perf_event_task_sched_out() call it won't get called unless we have a per-task counter.

* perf: Fix inherit vs. context rotation bugThomas Gleixner2010-11-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | It was found that sometimes children of tasks with inherited events had one extra event. Eventually it turned out to be due to the list rotation no being exclusive with the list iteration in the inheritance code. Cure this by temporarily disabling the rotation while we inherit the events.

* perf: Fix owner-list vs exitPeter Zijlstra2010-11-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Oleg noticed that a perf-fd keeping a reference on the creating task leads to a few funny side effects. There's two different aspects to this: - kernel based perf-events, these should not take out a reference on the creating task and appear on the task's event list since they're not bound to fds nor visible to userspace. - fork() and pthread_create(), these can lead to the creating task dying (and thus the task's event-list becomming useless) but keeping the list and ref alive until the event is closed. Combined they lead to malfunction of the ptrace hw_tracepoints. Cure this by not considering kernel based perf_events for the owner-list and destroying the owner-list when the owner dies.

| * perf,hw_breakpoint: Initialize hardware api earlierJason Wessel2010-11-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When using early debugging, the kernel does not initialize the hw_breakpoint API early enough and causes the late initialization of the kernel debugger to fail. The boot arguments are: earlyprintk=vga ekgdboc=kbd kgdbwait Then simply type "go" at the kdb prompt and boot. The kernel will later emit the message: kgdb: Could not allocate hwbreakpoints And at that point the kernel debugger will cease to work correctly. The solution is to initialize the hw_breakpoint at the same time that all the other perf call backs are initialized instead of using a core_initcall() initialization which happens well after the kernel debugger can make use of hardware breakpoints.

* | perf_events: Fix time tracking in samplesStephane Eranian2010-11-10
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch corrects time tracking in samples. Without this patch both time_enabled and time_running are bogus when user asks for PERF_SAMPLE_READ. One uses PERF_SAMPLE_READ to sample the values of other counters in each sample. Because of multiplexing, it is necessary to know both time_enabled, time_running to be able to scale counts correctly. In this second version of the patch, we maintain a shadow copy of ctx->time which allows us to compute ctx->time without calling update_context_time() from NMI context. We avoid the issue that update_context_time() must always be called with ctx->lock held. We do not keep shadow copies of the other event timings because if the lead event is overflowing then it is active and thus it's been scheduled in via event_sched_in() in which case neither tstamp_stopped, tstamp_running can be modified. This timing logic only applies to samples when PERF_SAMPLE_READ is used. Note that this patch does not address timing issues related to sampling inheritance between tasks. This will be addressed in a future patch. With this patch, the libpfm4 example task_smpl now reports correct counts (shown on 2.4GHz Core 2): $ task_smpl -p 2400000000 -e unhalted_core_cycles:u,instructions_retired:u,baclears noploop 5 noploop for 5 seconds IIP:0x000000004006d6 PID:5596 TID:5596 TIME:466,210,211,430 STREAM_ID:33 PERIOD:2,400,000,000 ENA=1,010,157,814 RUN=1,010,157,814 NR=3 2,400,000,254 unhalted_core_cycles:u (33) 2,399,273,744 instructions_retired:u (34) 53,340 baclears (35) Signed-off-by: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> LKML-Reference: <4cc6e14b.1e07e30a.256e.5190@mx.google.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
* perf_events: Fix for transaction recovery in group_sched_in()Stephane Eranian2010-10-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This new version (see commit 8e5fc1a) is much simpler and ensures that in case of error in group_sched_in() during event_sched_in(), the events up to the failed event go through regular event_sched_out(). But the failed event and the remaining events in the group have their timings adjusted as if they had also gone through event_sched_in() and event_sched_out(). This ensures timing uniformity across all events in a group. This also takes care of the tstamp_stopped problem in case the group could never be scheduled. The tstamp_stopped is updated as if the event had actually run. With this patch, the following now reports correct time_enabled, in case the NMI watchdog is active: $ task -e unhalted_core_cycles,instructions_retired,baclears,baclears noploop 1 noploop for 1 seconds 0 unhalted_core_cycles (100.00% scaling, ena=997,552,872, run=0) 0 instructions_retired (100.00% scaling, ena=997,552,872, run=0) 0 baclears (100.00% scaling, ena=997,552,872, run=0) 0 baclears (100.00% scaling, ena=997,552,872, run=0) And the older test case also works: $ task -einstructions_retired,baclears,baclears -e unhalted_core_cycles,baclears,baclears sleep 5 1680885 instructions_retired (69.39% scaling, ena=950756, run=291006) 10735 baclears (69.39% scaling, ena=950756, run=291006) 10735 baclears (69.39% scaling, ena=950756, run=291006) 0 unhalted_core_cycles (100.00% scaling, ena=817932, run=0) 0 baclears (100.00% scaling, ena=817932, run=0) 0 baclears (100.00% scaling, ena=817932, run=0) Signed-off-by: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> LKML-Reference: <4cbeeebc.8ee7d80a.5a28.0d5f@mx.google.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | hw_breakpoint creation needs to account stuff per-task to ensure there is always sufficient hardware resources to back these things due to ptrace. With the perf per pmu context changes the event initialization no longer has access to the event context, for the simple reason that we need to first find the pmu (result of initialization) before we can find the context. This makes hw_breakpoints unhappy, because it can no longer do per task accounting, cure this by frobbing a task pointer in the event::hw bits for now...

| * irq_work: Add generic hardirq context callbacksPeter Zijlstra2010-10-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Provide a mechanism that allows running code in IRQ context. It is most useful for NMI code that needs to interact with the rest of the system -- like wakeup a task to drain buffers. Perf currently has such a mechanism, so extract that and provide it as a generic feature, independent of perf so that others may also benefit. The IRQ context callback is generated through self-IPIs where possible, or on architectures like powerpc the decrementer (the built-in timer facility) is set to generate an interrupt immediately. Architectures that don't have anything like this get to do with a callback from the timer tick. These architectures can call irq_work_run() at the tail of any IRQ handlers that might enqueue such work (like the perf IRQ handler) to avoid undue latencies in processing the work.

| * perf_events: Fix transaction recovery in group_sched_in()Stephane Eranian2010-10-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The group_sched_in() function uses a transactional approach to schedule a group of events. In a group, either all events can be scheduled or none are. To schedule each event in, the function calls event_sched_in(). In case of error, event_sched_out() is called on each event in the group. The problem is that event_sched_out() does not completely cancel the effects of event_sched_in(). Furthermore event_sched_out() changes the state of the event as if it had run which is not true is this particular case. Those inconsistencies impact time tracking fields and may lead to events in a group not all reporting the same time_enabled and time_running values. This is demonstrated with the example below: $ task -eunhalted_core_cycles,baclears,baclears -e unhalted_core_cycles,baclears,baclears sleep 5 1946101 unhalted_core_cycles (32.85% scaling, ena=829181, run=556827) 11423 baclears (32.85% scaling, ena=829181, run=556827) 7671 baclears (0.00% scaling, ena=556827, run=556827) 2250443 unhalted_core_cycles (57.83% scaling, ena=962822, run=405995) 11705 baclears (57.83% scaling, ena=962822, run=405995) 11705 baclears (57.83% scaling, ena=962822, run=405995) Notice that in the first group, the last baclears event does not report the same timings as its siblings. This issue comes from the fact that tstamp_stopped is updated by event_sched_out() as if the event had actually run. To solve the issue, we must ensure that, in case of error, there is no change in the event state whatsoever. That means timings must remain as they were when entering group_sched_in(). To do this we defer updating tstamp_running until we know the transaction succeeded. Therefore, we have split event_sched_in() in two parts separating the update to tstamp_running. Similarly, in case of error, we do not want to update tstamp_stopped. Therefore, we have split event_sched_out() in two parts separating the update to tstamp_stopped. With this patch, we now get the following output: $ task -eunhalted_core_cycles,baclears,baclears -e unhalted_core_cycles,baclears,baclears sleep 5 2492050 unhalted_core_cycles (71.75% scaling, ena=1093330, run=308841) 11243 baclears (71.75% scaling, ena=1093330, run=308841) 11243 baclears (71.75% scaling, ena=1093330, run=308841) 1852746 unhalted_core_cycles (0.00% scaling, ena=784489, run=784489) 9253 baclears (0.00% scaling, ena=784489, run=784489) 9253 baclears (0.00% scaling, ena=784489, run=784489) Note that the uneven timing between groups is a side effect of the process spending most of its time sleeping, i.e., not enough event rotations (but that's a separate issue).

| * perf_events: Fix bogus context time trackingStephane Eranian2010-10-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | You can only call update_context_time() when the context is active, i.e., the thread it is attached to is still running. However, perf_event_read() can be called even when the context is inactive, e.g., user read() the counters. The call to update_context_time() must be conditioned on the status of the context, otherwise, bogus time_enabled, time_running may be returned. Here is an example on AMD64. The task program is an example from libpfm4. The -p prints deltas every 1s. $ task -p -e cpu_clk_unhalted sleep 5 2,266,610 cpu_clk_unhalted (0.00% scaling, ena=2,158,982, run=2,158,982) 0 cpu_clk_unhalted (0.00% scaling, ena=2,158,982, run=2,158,982) 0 cpu_clk_unhalted (0.00% scaling, ena=2,158,982, run=2,158,982) 0 cpu_clk_unhalted (0.00% scaling, ena=2,158,982, run=2,158,982) 0 cpu_clk_unhalted (0.00% scaling, ena=2,158,982, run=2,158,982) 5,242,358,071 cpu_clk_unhalted (99.95% scaling, ena=5,000,359,984, run=2,319,270) Whereas if you don't read deltas, e.g., no call to perf_event_read() until the process terminates: $ task -e cpu_clk_unhalted sleep 5 2,497,783 cpu_clk_unhalted (0.00% scaling, ena=2,376,899, run=2,376,899) Notice that time_enable, time_running are bogus in the first example causing bogus scaling. This patch fixes the problem, by conditionally calling update_context_time() in perf_event_read().

The goal is to clean up pid namespace handling and prevent bugs like: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17281 Instead of using pids switch find_get_context() to use task struct pointers directly. The syscall is responsible for resolving the pid to a task struct. This moves the pid namespace resolution into the syscall much like every other syscall that takes pid parameters.

The new interface extends the capability to stop a counter while keeping it scheduled on the PMU. We replace the throttled state with the generic stopped state. This also allows us to efficiently stop/start counters over certain code paths (like IRQ handlers). It also allows scheduling a counter without it starting, allowing for a generic frozen state (useful for rotating stopped counters). The stopped state is implemented in two different ways, depending on how the architecture implemented the throttled state: 1) We disable the counter: a) the pmu has per-counter enable bits, we flip that b) we program a NOP event, preserving the counter state 2) We store the counter state and ignore all read/overflow events Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: paulus <paulus@samba.org> Cc: stephane eranian <eranian@googlemail.com> Cc: Robert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com> Cc: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com> Cc: Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Cyrill Gorcunov <gorcunov@gmail.com> Cc: Lin Ming <ming.m.lin@intel.com> Cc: Yanmin <yanmin_zhang@linux.intel.com> Cc: Deng-Cheng Zhu <dengcheng.zhu@gmail.com> Cc: David Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Cc: Michael Cree <mcree@orcon.net.nz> LKML-Reference: <new-submission> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
