  • da7196e1f   perf, ARM: Modify kuser rmb() call to compile for Thumb-2 ... Browse Code »

    The Thumb-2 instruction set does not provide an encoding
    for sub pc, r0, #95 as present in the rmb() definition used
    by perf. This results in compilation failure when using a
    compiler targetting an instruction set other than ARM.

    This patch redefines rmb() for ARM by casting the address
    of the kuser helper to a function pointer, therefore getting
    the compiler to take care of making the call.

    Patch taken against tip/master.

  • 58e9f9413   perf tools: Allow building for ARM ... Browse Code »

    Add definitions of rmb() and cpu_relax() and include the ARM
    unistd.h header. The __kuser_memory_barrier helper in the helper
    page is used to provide the correct memory barrier depending on
    the CPU type.

    [ The rmb() will work on v6 and v7, segfault on v5. Dynamic
    detection to add v5 support will be added later. ]

  • cdd6c482c   perf: Do the big rename: Performance Counters -> Performance Events ... Browse Code »

    Bye-bye Performance Counters, welcome Performance Events!

    In the past few months the perfcounters subsystem has grown out its
    initial role of counting hardware events, and has become (and is
    becoming) a much broader generic event enumeration, reporting, logging,
    monitoring, analysis facility.

    Naming its core object 'perf_counter' and naming the subsystem
    'perfcounters' has become more and more of a misnomer. With pending
    code like hw-breakpoints support the 'counter' name is less and
    less appropriate.

    All in one, we've decided to rename the subsystem to 'performance
    events' and to propagate this rename through all fields, variables
    and API names. (in an ABI compatible fashion)

    The word 'event' is also a bit shorter than 'counter' - which makes
    it slightly more convenient to write/handle as well.

    Thanks goes to Stephane Eranian who first observed this misnomer and
    suggested a rename.

    User-space tooling and ABI compatibility is not affected - this patch
    should be function-invariant. (Also, defconfigs were not touched to
    keep the size down.)

    This patch has been generated via the following script:

    FILES=$(find * -type f | grep -vE 'oprofile|[^K]config')

    sed -i \
    -e 's/PERF_EVENT_/PERF_RECORD_/g' \
    -e 's/PERF_COUNTER/PERF_EVENT/g' \
    -e 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g' \
    -e 's/nb_counters/nb_events/g' \
    -e 's/swcounter/swevent/g' \
    -e 's/tpcounter_event/tp_event/g' \
    $FILES

    for N in $(find . -name perf_counter.[ch]); do
    M=$(echo $N | sed 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g')
    mv $N $M
    done

    FILES=$(find . -name perf_event.*)

    sed -i \
    -e 's/COUNTER_MASK/REG_MASK/g' \
    -e 's/COUNTER/EVENT/g' \
    -e 's/\/event_id/g' \
    -e 's/counter/event/g' \
    -e 's/Counter/Event/g' \
    $FILES

    ... to keep it as correct as possible. This script can also be
    used by anyone who has pending perfcounters patches - it converts
    a Linux kernel tree over to the new naming. We tried to time this
    change to the point in time where the amount of pending patches
    is the smallest: the end of the merge window.

    Namespace clashes were fixed up in a preparatory patch - and some
    stylistic fallout will be fixed up in a subsequent patch.

    ( NOTE: 'counters' are still the proper terminology when we deal
    with hardware registers - and these sed scripts are a bit
    over-eager in renaming them. I've undone some of that, but
    in case there's something left where 'counter' would be
    better than 'event' we can undo that on an individual basis
    instead of touching an otherwise nicely automated patch. )

  • 11d1578f9   perf_counter: Add P6 PMU support ... Browse Code »

    Add basic P6 PMU support. The P6 uses the EVNTSEL0 EN bit to
    enable/disable both its counters. We use this for the
    global enable/disable, and clear all config bits (except EN)
    to disable individual counters.

    Actual ia32 hardware doesn't support lfence, so use a locked
    op without side-effect to implement a full barrier.

    perf stat and perf record seem to function correctly.

    Enable -Wextra. This found a few real bugs plus a number

    All things considered it was still worth it so lets try with

    We plan to display the callchains depending on some user-configurable
    parameters.

    To gather the callchains stats from the recorded stream in a fast way,
    this patch introduces an ad hoc radix tree adapted for callchains and also
    a rbtree to sort these callchains once we have gathered every events
    from the stream.

  • 9cffa8d53   perf_counter tools: Define and use our own u64, s64 etc. definitions ... Browse Code »

    On 64-bit powerpc, __u64 is defined to be unsigned long rather than
    unsigned long long. This causes compiler warnings every time we
    print a __u64 value with %Lx.

    Rather than changing __u64, we define our own u64 to be unsigned long
    long on all architectures, and similarly s64 as signed long long.
    For consistency we also define u32, s32, u16, s16, u8 and s8. These
    definitions are put in a new header, types.h, because these definitions
    are needed in util/string.h and util/symbol.h.

    The main change here is the mechanical change of __[us]{64,32,16,8}
    to remove the "__". The other changes are:

    * Create types.h
    * Include types.h in perf.h, util/string.h and util/symbol.h
    * Add types.h to the LIB_H definition in Makefile
    * Added (u64) casts in process_overflow_event() and print_sym_table()
    to kill two remaining warnings.

  • 974802eaa   perf_counter: Add forward/backward attribute ABI compatibility ... Browse Code »

    Provide for means of extending the perf_counter_attr in a 'natural' way.

    We allow growing the structure by appending fields at the end by specifying
    the full structure size inside it.

    When a new kernel sees a smaller (old) structure, it will 0 pad the tail.
    When an old kernel sees a larger (new) structure, it will verify the tail
    consists of 0s, otherwise fail.

    If we fail due to a size-mismatch, we return -E2BIG and write the kernel's
    native attribe size back into the provided structure.

    Furthermore, add some attribute verification, so that we'll fail counter
    creation when unknown bits are present (PERF_SAMPLE, PERF_FORMAT, or in
    the __reserved fields).

    (This ABI detail is introduced while keeping the existing syscall ABI.)
