9 years agoperf/x86: Add Intel cstate PMUs support
Kan Liang [Mon, 28 Sep 2015 12:30:04 +0000 (08:30 -0400)]
perf/x86: Add Intel cstate PMUs support

This patch adds new PMUs to support cstate related free running
(read-only) counters. These counters may be used simultaneously by other
tools, such as turbostat. However, it still make sense to implement them
in perf. Because we can conveniently collect them together with other
events, and allow to use them from tools without special MSR access
code.

These counters include CORE_C*_RESIDENCY and PKG_C*_RESIDENCY.
According to counters' scope and category, two PMUs are registered with
the perf_event core subsystem.

 - 'cstate_core': The counter is available for each physical core. The
                  counters include CORE_C*_RESIDENCY.

 - 'cstate_pkg':  The counter is available for each physical package. The
                  counters include PKG_C*_RESIDENCY.

The events are exposed in sysfs for use by perf stat and other tools.
The files are:

  /sys/devices/cstate_core/events/c*-residency
  /sys/devices/cstate_pkg/events/c*-residency

These events only support system-wide mode counting.
The /sys/devices/cstate_*/cpumask file can be used by tools to figure
out which CPUs to monitor by default.

The PMU type (attr->type) is dynamically allocated and is available from
/sys/devices/core_misc/type and /sys/device/cstate_*/type.

Sampling is not supported.

Here is an example.

 - To caculate the fraction of time when the core is running in C6 state
   CORE_C6_time% = CORE_C6_RESIDENCY / TSC

 # perf stat -x, -e"cstate_core/c6-residency/,msr/tsc/" -C0 -- taskset -c 0 sleep 5

   11838820015,,cstate_core/c6-residency/,5175919658,100.00
   11877130740,,msr/tsc/,5175922010,100.00

 For sleep, 99.7% of time we ran in C6 state.

 # perf stat -x, -e"cstate_core/c6-residency/,msr/tsc/" -C0 -- taskset -c 0 busyloop

     $ perf record -e cycles:P usleep 1

    Is now similar to:

     $ perf record usleep 1

    Useful, for instance, when specifying multiple events. (Jiri Olsa)

    '-e non:existent' was being correctly handled, with a proper error message
    about that not being a valid event, but '-e non:existent*' wasn't,
    fix it. (Jiri Olsa)

Infrastructure changes:

As the user presses the left arrow, the ui_browser code will remove the

The right arrow key was an alias for ENTER, so people used to press it

Callchains can be left as is or we can, when rendering the Symbol

using ui_browser__gotorc() to print it from there, i.e. the callchain
would move around with the symbol.

Leaving it as is, i.e. at a fixed position, close to the left, saves

case.

For posterity, record Peter's proof of concept test case in tools/perf
so that it presents a model for how we can perform architecture
specific tests, or "arch tests", in perf in the future.

The particular issue triggered in the test case is that when the
counter for the hardware event overflows and triggers a PMI we'll read
both the hardware event and the software event counters.
Unfortunately, for CQM that involves performing an IPI to read the CQM
event counters on all sockets, which in NMI context triggers the
WARN_ON_ONCE().

perf stat: Reduce min --interval-print to 10ms

The --interval-print parameter was limited to 100ms. However, for
example, 10ms is required to do sophisticated bandwidth analysis using
uncore events.

The test shows that the overhead of the system-wide uncore monitoring
with 10ms interval is only ~2%. So this patch reduces the minimal
interval-print allowd to 10ms.

But 10ms may not work well for all cases. For example, when the
cpus/threads number is very large, for system-wide core event monitoring
the overhead could be high.

To handle this issue, a warning will be displayed when the
interval-print is set between 10ms to 100ms. So users can make a
decision according to their specific cases.

 # perf stat -e uncore_imc_1/cas_count_read/ -a --interval-print 10 -- sleep 1

perf probe: Fix to remove dot suffix from second or latter events

Fix to remove dot suffix (e.g. .const, .isra) from the second or latter
events which has suffix numbers.

Since the previous commit 35a23ff928b0 ("perf probe: Cut off the gcc
optimization postfixes from function name") didn't care about the suffix
numbered events, therefore we'll have an error when we add additional
events on the same dot suffix functions.

e.g.
  ----
  # ./perf probe -f -a get_sigframe.isra.2.constprop.3 \
   -a get_sigframe.isra.2.constprop.3
  Failed to write event: Invalid argument
    Error: Failed to add events.
  ----

This fixes above issue as below:
  ----
  # ./perf probe -f -a get_sigframe.isra.2.constprop.3 \
   -a get_sigframe.isra.2.constprop.3
  Added new events:
    probe:get_sigframe   (on get_sigframe.isra.2.constprop.3)
    probe:get_sigframe_1 (on get_sigframe.isra.2.constprop.3)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

          perf record -e probe:get_sigframe_1 -aR sleep 1

TSC packets contain only 7 bytes of TSC.  The 8th byte is assumed to

logic must cater for a 7 byte wraparound, which it does by adding 1 to

The existing code was doing that with a while loop even though the
addition should only need to be done once.  That logic won't work (will
loop forever) if TSC wraps around at the 8th byte.  Theoretically that
would take at least 10 years, unless something else went wrong.

And what else could go wrong.  Well, if the chunks of trace data are
processed out of order, it will make it look like the 7-byte TSC has
gone backwards (i.e. wrapped).  If that happens 256 times then stuck in

9 years agotools build: Add fixdep dependency helper
Jiri Olsa [Wed, 23 Sep 2015 10:33:58 +0000 (12:33 +0200)]
tools build: Add fixdep dependency helper

For dependency tracking we currently use targets that fall out of the
gcc -MD command. We store this info in the .cmd file and include as
makefile during the build.

This format put object as target and all the c and header files as
dependencies, like:

  util/abspath.o: util/abspath.c /usr/include/stdc-predef.h util/cache.h \
   /usr/include/bits/wordsize.h /usr/include/gnu/stubs.h \
   ...

If any of those dependency header files (krava.h below) is removed the
build fails on:

  make[1]: *** No rule to make target 'krava.h', needed by 'inc.o'.  Stop.

This patch adds fixdep helper, that is used by kbuild to alter the shape
of the object dependencies like:

  source_util/abspath.o := util/abspath.c

  deps_util/abspath.o := \
    /usr/include/stdc-predef.h \
    util/cache.h \
    ...

  util/abspath.o: $(deps_util/abspath.o)

  $(deps_util/abspath.o):

With this format the header removal won't make the build fail, because
it'll be picked up by the last empty target defined for each header.

As previously mentioned the fixdep tool is taken from kbuild. It's not
complete backport, only the part that alters the standard dependency
info was taken, the part that adds the CONFIG_* dependency logic will be
probably taken later on.

MAARs should be initialised on each CPU (or rather, core) in the system

have only been initialised on the boot CPU which leads to performance
