It is implemented in all Sandy Bridge processors -- mobile, desktop and server. It is expected to become increasingly important in subsequent generations. x86_energy_perf_policy is a user-space utility to set the hardware energy vs performance policy hint in the processor. Most systems would benefit from "x86_energy_perf_policy normal" at system startup, as the hardware default is maximum performance at the expense of energy efficiency. See x86_energy_perf_policy.8 man page for more information. Background: Linux-2.6.36 added "epb" to /proc/cpuinfo to indicate if an x86 processor supports MSR_IA32_ENERGY_PERF_BIAS, without actually modifying the MSR. In March, 2010, Venkatesh Pallipadi proposed a small driver that programmed MSR_IA32_ENERGY_PERF_BIAS, based on the cpufreq governor in use. It also offered a boot-time cmdline option to override. http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/3/4/457 But hiding the hardware policy behind the governor choice was deemed "kinda icky". In June, 2010, I proposed a generic user/kernel API to generalize the power/performance policy trade-off. "RFC: /sys/power/policy_preference" http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/6/16/399 That is my preference for implementing this capability, but I received no support on the list. So in September, 2010, I sent x86_energy_perf_policy.c to LKML, a user-space utility that scribbles directly to the MSR. http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/9/28/246 Here is that same utility, after responding to some review feedback, to live in tools/power/, where it is easily found.

| | |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | turbostat is a Linux tool to observe proper operation of Intel(R) Turbo Boost Technology. turbostat displays the actual processor frequency on x86 processors that include APERF and MPERF MSRs. Note that turbostat is of limited utility on Linux kernels 2.6.29 and older, as acpi_cpufreq cleared APERF/MPERF up through that release. On Intel Core i3/i5/i7 (Nehalem) and newer processors, turbostat also displays residency in idle power saving states, which are necessary for diagnosing any cpuidle issues that may have an effect on turbo-mode. See the turbostat.8 man page for example usage. Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

| * | | ktest: Ask for the manditory config options instead of just failingSteven Rostedt2010-11-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In keeping with the notion that all tools should be simple for all to use. I've changed ktest.pl to ask for mandatory options instead of just failing. It will append (or create) the options the user types in, onto the config file.

| * | | ktest: Copy the last good and bad configs in config_bisectSteven Rostedt2010-11-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | During the config_bisect, in case of failure, it is nice to have the last good and bad .configs that were used. This would let us restart the config_bisect from those configs. Copy the last good config into the output dir as config_good, and the last bad config as config_bad.

| * | | ktest: For grub reboot, use run_ssh instead of run_commandSteven Rostedt2010-11-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The run_ssh handles the ssh variable $SSH_COMMAND, which was not being used by the run_command in reboot_to function. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
| * | | ktest: Added force stop after success and failureSteven Rostedt2010-11-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Added the options STOP_AFTER_SUCCESS and STOP_AFTER_FAILURE to allow the user to give a time (in seconds) to stop the monitor after a stack trace or login has been detected. Sometimes the kernel constantly prints out to the console and this may cause the test to run indefinitely. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
| * | | ktest: Parse off the directory name in useconfig for failuresSteven Rostedt2010-11-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we store failures, we create a directory that has the build_type in it. For useconfig, it also contains the name path of the config file it uses. This unfortunately gets its own directory on failure. Parse off the directory name when creating the directory to store the failures. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
| * | | ktest: Use different temp config name for minconfigSteven Rostedt2010-11-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | By using the "use_config" for minconfig and addconfig we risk trying to copy itself to itself, which will cause an unexpected failure. Use a different name instead. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

It starts with a bad config and does the following loop. Enable half the configs. if none of the configs to check are not enabled (caused by missing dependencies) enable the other half. Run the test if the test passes, remove the configs from the check but enabled them for further tests (to satisfy dependencies). else Remove any config that was not enabled, as we have found a new config that can cause a failure. loop till we have only one config left.

Also process the commit ids that are passed to the options to get the actually SHA1 so it is no longer relative to the branch. Ie, saying HEAD will get the current SHA1 and then that will be used, and will work even if another branch is checked out. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It is much better to keep the monitor running throughout a test than to constantly start and stop it. Some console readers will show everything that has happened before when opening the console, and by opening it several times, causes the old content to be read multiple times in a single test.

| * | | | perf tools: Pass whole attr to event selectorsLin Ming2011-01-06

For example, PEBS does not work because perf_event_attr::precise_ip is not passed to the syscall.

Just build the tools with frame pointers as the callchains can be an important part of the perf workflow.

| * | | | perf tools: Fix buffer overflow error when specifying all tracepointsHan Pingtian2011-01-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I found when specifying all tracepoints with -e to one of subcommand, such as 'stat', the program will trigger a buffer overflow error, like this: *** buffer overflow detected ***: ./perf terminated ======= Backtrace: ========= /lib64/libc.so.6(__fortify_fail+0x37)[0x382cefb2c7] .... The tracepoints are separated by comma, something like this: $ perf stat -a -e `perf list |grep Tracepoint|awk -F'[' '{gsub(/[[:space:]]+/,"",$1);array[FNR]=$1}END{outputs=array[1];for (i=2;i<=FNR;i++){ outputs=outputs "," array[i];};print outputs}'` The root reason of this problem is that store_event_type() is called for all events, and will overflow the 'filename' at: strncat(filename, orgname, strlen(orgname)); This patch fixes it by calling store_event_type() only when the event name has been found.
