| | * perf: Rework the PMU methodsPeter Zijlstra2010-09-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Replace pmu::{enable,disable,start,stop,unthrottle} with pmu::{add,del,start,stop}, all of which take a flags argument. 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>

So seperating nmi and others contexts in two buffers has become racy. Fix this by providing one buffer per nesting level. Given the size of the callchain entries (2040 bytes * 4), we now need to allocate them dynamically. v2: Fixed put_callchain_entry call after recursion. Fix the type of the recursion, it must be an array. v3: Use a manual pr cpu allocation (temporary solution until NMIs can safely access vmalloc'ed memory). Do a better separation between callchain reference tracking and allocation. Make the "put" path lockless for non-release cases. v4: Protect the callchain buffers with rcu. v5: Do the cpu buffers allocations node affine.

* | | perf_events: Fix time tracking for events with pid != -1 and cpu != -1Stephane Eranian2010-08-30
|/ / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Per-thread events with a cpu filter, i.e., cpu != -1, were not reporting correct timings when the thread never ran on the monitored cpu. The time enabled was reported as a negative value. This patch fixes the problem by updating tstamp_stopped, tstamp_running in event_sched_out() for events with filters and which are marked as INACTIVE. The function group_sched_out() is modified to systematically call into event_sched_out() to avoid duplicating the timing adjustment code twice. With the patch, I now get: $ task_cpu -i -e unhalted_core_cycles,unhalted_core_cycles noploop 2 noploop for 2 seconds CPU0 0 unhalted_core_cycles (ena=1,991,136,594, run=0) CPU0 0 unhalted_core_cycles (ena=1,991,136,594, run=0) CPU1 0 unhalted_core_cycles (ena=1,991,136,594, run=0) CPU1 0 unhalted_core_cycles (ena=1,991,136,594, run=0) CPU2 0 unhalted_core_cycles (ena=1,991,136,594, run=0) CPU2 0 unhalted_core_cycles (ena=1,991,136,594, run=0) CPU3 4,747,990,931 unhalted_core_cycles (ena=1,991,136,594, run=1,991,136,594) CPU3 4,747,990,931 unhalted_core_cycles (ena=1,991,136,594, run=1,991,136,594) Signed-off-by: Stephane Eranian <eranian@gmail.com> Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: paulus@samba.org Cc: davem@davemloft.net Cc: fweisbec@gmail.com Cc: perfmon2-devel@lists.sf.net Cc: eranian@google.com LKML-Reference: <4c76802d.aae9d80a.115d.70fe@mx.google.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

It turns out there are two bugs, the division-by-zero comes from a failure to deal with that in perf_calculate_period(). The other was more interesting and turned out to be a wrong comparison in perf_adjust_period(). The comparison was between an s64 and u64 and got implicitly converted to an unsigned comparison. The problem is that period_left is typically < 0, so it ended up being always true. Cure this by making the local period variables s64.

* | perf_events: Fix event scheduling issues introduced by transactional APIStephane Eranian2010-05-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The transactional API patch between the generic and model-specific code introduced several important bugs with event scheduling, at least on X86. If you had pinned events, e.g., watchdog, and were over-committing the PMU, you would get bogus counts. The bug was showing up on Intel CPU because events would move around more often that on AMD. But the problem also existed on AMD, though harder to expose. The issues were: - group_sched_in() was missing a cancel_txn() in the error path - cpuc->n_added was not properly maintained, leading to missing actions in hw_perf_enable(), i.e., n_running being 0. You cannot update n_added until you know the transaction has succeeded. In case of failed transaction n_added was not adjusted back. - in case of failed transactions, event_sched_out() was called and eventually invoked x86_disable_event() to touch the HW reg. But with transactions, on X86, event_sched_in() does not touch HW registers, it simply collects events into a list. Thus, you could end up calling x86_disable_event() on a counter which did not correspond to the current event when idx != -1. The patch modifies the generic and X86 code to avoid all those problems. First, we keep track of the number of events added last. In case the transaction fails, we substract them from n_added. This approach is necessary (as opposed to delaying updates to n_added) because not all event updates use the transaction API, e.g., single events. Second, we encapsulate the event_sched_in() and event_sched_out() in group_sched_in() inside the transaction. That makes the operations symmetrical and you can also detect that you are inside a transaction and skip the HW reg access by checking cpuc->group_flag. With this patch, you can now overcommit the PMU even with pinned system-wide events present and still get valid counts.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Group siblings don't pin each-other or the parent, so when we destroy events we must make sure to clean up all cross referencing pointers. In particular, for destruction of a group leader we must be able to find all its siblings and remove their reference to it. This means that detaching an event from its context must not detach it from the group, otherwise we can end up failing to clear all pointers. Solve this by clearly separating the attachment to a context and attachment to a group, and keep the group composed until we destroy the events.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A writer that gets a reference to the buffer handle disables preemption. When we put that reference, we check if we are the outer most writer and if not, we simply return and defer the head update to the outer most writer. The problem here is that preemption is only reenabled by the outer most, that produces preemption count imbalance for every nested writer that exit. So just don't forget to always re-enable preemption when we put the buffer reference, whoever we are. Fixes lots of sleeping in atomic warnings, visible with lock events recording.

We need to consider three different sides that access the hlist: - the hlist allocation/release side. This side happens when an events is created or released, accesses to the hlist are serialized under the cpuctx mutex. - the events insertion/removal in the hlist. This side is always serialized against the above one. The hlist is always present during such operations. This side happens when a software event is scheduled in/out. The serialization that ensures the software event is really attached to the context is made under the ctx->lock. - events triggering. This is the read side, it can happen concurrently with any update side. This patch deals with them one by one and anticipates with the separate rcu mem space patches in preparation. This patch fixes various annoying rcu warnings. Reported-by: Paul E.
