ids. These ids are used in event->attr.type to describe the pmu to be
used for that event. The information is available in sysfs, e.g:

If a pmu is added dynamically like for ibs_fetch or ibs_op the type
value may vary.

Now, when decoding samples from perf.data this information in sysfs
might be no longer available or may have changed. We need to store it
in perf.data. Using the header for this. The header information

With this patch the OProfile Basic Mode Sampling support for System z
is enhanced with a counter file system.  That way hardware sampling
can be configured using the user space tools with only little
modifications.

With the patch by default new cpu_types (s390/z10, s390/z196) are
returned in order to indicate that we are running a CPU which provides
the hardware sampling facility.  Existing user space tools will
complain about an unknown cpu type. In order to be compatible with
existing user space tools the `cpu_type' module parameter has been
added.  Setting the parameter to `timer' will force the module to
return `timer' as cpu_type.  The module will still try to use hardware
sampling if available and the hwsampling virtual filesystem will be
also be available for configuration.  So this has a different effect
than using the generic oprofile module parameter `timer=1'.

If the basic mode sampling is enabled on the machine and the
cpu_type=timer parameter is not used the kernel module will provide
the following virtual filesystem:

/dev/oprofile/0/enabled
/dev/oprofile/0/event
/dev/oprofile/0/count
/dev/oprofile/0/unit_mask
/dev/oprofile/0/kernel
/dev/oprofile/0/user

In the counter file system only the values of 'enabled', 'count',
'kernel', and 'user' are evaluated by the kernel module. Everything
else must contain fixed values.

The 'event' value only supports a single event - HWSAMPLING with value
0.

The 'count' value specifies the hardware sampling rate as it is passed
to the CPU measurement facility.

The 'kernel' and 'user' flags can now be used to filter for samples
when using hardware sampling.

Additionally also the following file will be created:
/dev/oprofile/timer/enabled

This will always be the inverted value of /dev/oprofile/0/enabled. 0
is not accepted without hardware sampling.

12 years agoperf, core: Rate limit perf_sched_events jump_label patching
Gleb Natapov [Sun, 27 Nov 2011 15:59:09 +0000 (17:59 +0200)]
perf, core: Rate limit perf_sched_events jump_label patching

jump_lable patching is very expensive operation that involves pausing all
cpus. The patching of perf_sched_events jump_label is easily controllable
from userspace by unprivileged user.

When te user runs a loop like this:

  "while true; do perf stat -e cycles true; done"

... the performance of my test application that just increments a counter
for one second drops by 4%.

This is on a 16 cpu box with my test application using only one of
them. An impact on a real server doing real work will be worse.

Performance of KVM PMU drops nearly 50% due to jump_lable for "perf
record" since KVM PMU implementation creates and destroys perf event
frequently.

This patch introduces a way to rate limit jump_label patching and uses
it to fix the above problem.

I believe that as jump_label use will spread the problem will become more
common and thus solving it in a generic code is appropriate. Also fixing
it in the perf code would result in moving jump_label accounting logic to
perf code with all the ifdefs in case of JUMP_LABEL=n kernel. With this
patch all details are nicely hidden inside jump_label code.

12 years agoperf, x86: Fix event scheduler for constraints with overlapping counters
Robert Richter [Fri, 18 Nov 2011 11:35:22 +0000 (12:35 +0100)]
perf, x86: Fix event scheduler for constraints with overlapping counters

The current x86 event scheduler fails to resolve scheduling problems
of certain combinations of events and constraints. This happens if the
counter mask of such an event is not a subset of any other counter
mask of a constraint with an equal or higher weight, e.g. constraints
of the AMD family 15h pmu:

                        counter mask    weight

 amd_f15_PMC30          0x09            2  <--- overlapping counters
 amd_f15_PMC20          0x07            3
 amd_f15_PMC53          0x38            3

The scheduler does not find then an existing solution. Here is an
example:

 event code     counter         failure         possible solution

 0x02E          PMC[3,0]        0               3
 0x043          PMC[2:0]        1               0
 0x045          PMC[2:0]        2               1
 0x046          PMC[2:0]        FAIL            2

The event scheduler may not select the correct counter in the first
cycle because it needs to know which subsequent events will be
scheduled. It may fail to schedule the events then.

To solve this, we now save the scheduler state of events with
overlapping counter counstraints.  If we fail to schedule the events
we rollback to those states and try to use another free counter.

Constraints with overlapping counters are marked with a new introduced
overlap flag. We set the overlap flag for such constraints to give the
scheduler a hint which events to select for counter rescheduling. The
EVENT_CONSTRAINT_OVERLAP() macro can be used for this.

Care must be taken as the rescheduling algorithm is O(n!) which will
increase scheduling cycles for an over-commited system dramatically.
The number of such EVENT_CONSTRAINT_OVERLAP() macros and its counter
masks must be kept at a minimum. Thus, the current stack is limited to
2 states to limit the number of loops the algorithm takes in the worst
case.

On systems with no overlapping-counter constraints, this
implementation does not increase the loop count compared to the
previous algorithm.

V2:
* Renamed redo -> overlap.
* Reimplementation using perf scheduling helper functions.

V3:
* Added WARN_ON_ONCE() if out of save states.
* Changed function interface of perf_sched_restore_state() to use bool
  as return value.

This patch introduces x86 perf scheduler code helper functions. We

overlapping counter constraints (next patch).

The algorithm is modified so that the range of weight values is now
generated from the constraints. There shouldn't be other functional
changes.

With the helper functions the scheduler is controlled. There are

etc. The scheduler keeps its own state.

* Changed functions interfaces of perf_sched_find_counter() and

Cure this by keeping a perf_event_context::nr_freq counter that counts the
number of active events that require frequency adjustments and use this in a
similar fashion to the already existing nr_events != nr_active test in

By being able to exclude both rotation and frequency adjustments a-priory for

r8169: fix Rx index race between FIFO overflow recovery and NAPI handler.

Since 92fc43b4159b518f5baae57301f26d770b0834c9, rtl8169_tx_timeout ends up
resetting Rx and Tx indexes and thus racing with the NAPI handler via
-> rtl8169_hw_reset
   -> rtl_hw_reset
      -> rtl8169_init_ring_indexes

What about returning to the original state ?

rtl_hw_reset is only used by rtl8169_hw_reset and rtl8169_init_one.

The latter does not need rtl8169_init_ring_indexes because the indexes
still contain their original values from the newly allocated network
device private data area (i.e. 0).

rtl8169_hw_reset is used by:
1. rtl8169_down
   Helper for rtl8169_close. rtl8169_open explicitely inits the indexes
   anyway.
2. rtl8169_pcierr_interrupt
   Indexes are set by rtl8169_reinit_task.
3. rtl8169_interrupt
   rtl8169_hw_reset is needed when the device goes down. See 1.
4. rtl_shutdown
   System shutdown handler. Indexes are irrelevant.
5. rtl8169_reset_task
   Indexes must be set before rtl_hw_start is called.
6. rtl8169_tx_timeout
   Indexes should not be set. This is the job of rtl8169_reset_task anyway.

The removal of rtl8169_hw_reset in rtl8169_tx_timeout and its move in
rtl8169_reset_task do not change the analysis.

12 years agor8169: Rx FIFO overflow fixes.
françois romieu [Sun, 4 Dec 2011 20:30:45 +0000 (20:30 +0000)]
r8169: Rx FIFO overflow fixes.

Realtek has specified that the post 8168c gigabit chips and the post
8105e fast ethernet chips recover automatically from a Rx FIFO overflow.
The driver does not need to clear the RxFIFOOver bit of IntrStatus and
it should rather avoid messing it.

The implementation deserves some explanation:
1. events outside of the intr_event bit mask are now ignored. It enforces
   a no-processing policy for the events that either should not be there
   or should be ignored.

2. RxFIFOOver was already ignored in rtl_cfg_infos[RTL_CFG_1] for the
   whole 8168 line of chips with two exceptions:
   - RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_22 since b5ba6d12bdac21bc0620a5089e0f24e362645efd
     ("use RxFIFO overflow workaround for 8168c chipset.").
     This one should now be correctly handled.
   - RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_11 (8168b) which requires a different Rx FIFO
     overflow processing.

   Though it does not conform to Realtek suggestion above, the updated
   driver includes no change for RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_12 and RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_17.
   Both are 8168b. RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_12 is common and a bit old so I'd rather
   wait for experimental evidence that the change suggested by Realtek really
   helps or does not hurt in unexpected ways.

   Removed case statements in rtl8169_interrupt are only 8168 relevant.

3. RxFIFOOver is masked for post 8105e 810x chips, namely the sole 8105e
   (RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_30) itself.

The problem is that in copy_page_range() we turn lazy mode on,
and then in swap_entry_free() we call swap_count_continued()
which ends up in:

         map = kmap_atomic(page, KM_USER0) + offset;

and then later we touch *map.

Since we are running in batched mode (lazy) we don't actually
set up the PTE mappings and the kmap_atomic is not done
synchronously and ends up trying to dereference a page that has
not been set.

Looking at kmap_atomic_prot_pfn(), it uses
'arch_flush_lazy_mmu_mode' and doing the same in
kmap_atomic_prot() and __kunmap_atomic() makes the problem go
away.

Interestingly, commit b8bcfe997e4615 ("x86/paravirt: remove lazy
mode in interrupts") removed part of this to fix an interrupt
issue - but it went to far and did not consider this scenario.

x86/mtrr: Resolve inconsistency with Intel processor manual

Following is from Notes of section 11.5.3 of Intel processor
manual available at:

  http://www.intel.com/Assets/PDF/manual/325384.pdf

For the Pentium 4 and Intel Xeon processors, after the sequence of
steps given above has been executed, the cache lines containing the
code between the end of the WBINVD instruction and before the
MTRRS have actually been disabled may be retained in the cache
hierarchy. Here, to remove code from the cache completely, a
second WBINVD instruction must be executed after the MTRRs have
been disabled.

This patch provides resolution for that.

Ideally, I will like to make changes only for Pentium 4 and Xeon
processors. But, I am not finding easier way to do it.
And, extra wbinvd() instruction does not hurt much for other
processors.

Masami Hiramatsu [Mon, 5 Dec 2011 12:05:39 +0000 (21:05 +0900)]
x86: Fix instruction decoder to handle grouped AVX instructions

For reducing memory usage of attribute table, x86 instruction
decoder puts "Group" attribute only on "no-last-prefix"
attribute table (same as vex_p == 0 case).

Thus, the decoder should look no-last-prefix table first, and
then only if it is not a group, move on to "with-last-prefix"
table (vex_p != 0).

However, current implementation, inat_get_avx_attribute()
looks with-last-prefix directly. So, when decoding
a grouped AVX instruction, the decoder fails to find correct
group because there is no "Group" attribute on the table.
This ends up with the mis-decoding of instructions, as Ingo
reported in http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1214103

This patch fixes it to check no-last-prefix table first
even if that is an AVX instruction, and get an attribute from
"with last-prefix" table only if that is not a group.

and 64-bit versions of MP_bus_info were rearranged to match each
other better.  Unfortunately it introduced a regression: prior
to that change we used to always set the mp_bus_not_pci bit,
then clear it if we found a PCI bus.  After it, we set
mp_bus_not_pci for ISA buses, clear it for PCI buses, and leave
it alone otherwise.

In the cases of ISA and PCI, there's not much difference.  But
ISA is not the only non-PCI bus, so it's better to always set
mp_bus_not_pci and clear it only for PCI.

Without this change, Dan's Dell PowerEdge 4200 panics on boot
with a log indicating interrupt routing trouble unless the
"noapic" option is supplied.  With this change, the machine
boots reliably without "noapic".

Peter Zijlstra [Sat, 26 Nov 2011 01:47:31 +0000 (02:47 +0100)]
perf: Fix loss of notification with multi-event

When you do:
        $ perf record -e cycles,cycles,cycles noploop 10

You expect about 10,000 samples for each event, i.e., 10s at
1000samples/sec. However, this is not what's happening. You
get much fewer samples, maybe 3700 samples/event:

$ perf report -D | tail -15
Aggregated stats:
           TOTAL events:      10998
            MMAP events:         66
            COMM events:          2
          SAMPLE events:      10930
cycles stats:
           TOTAL events:       3644
          SAMPLE events:       3644
cycles stats:
           TOTAL events:       3642
          SAMPLE events:       3642
cycles stats:
           TOTAL events:       3644
          SAMPLE events:       3644

On a Intel Nehalem or even AMD64, there are 4 counters capable
of measuring cycles, so there is plenty of space to measure those
events without multiplexing (even with the NMI watchdog active).
And even with multiplexing, we'd expect roughly the same number
of samples per event.

The root of the problem was that when the event that caused the buffer
to become full was not the first event passed on the cmdline, the user
notification would get lost. The notification was sent to the file
descriptor of the overflowed event but the perf tool was not polling
on it.  The perf tool aggregates all samples into a single buffer,
i.e., the buffer of the first event. Consequently, it assumes
notifications for any event will come via that descriptor.

The seemingly straight forward solution of moving the waitq into the
ringbuffer object doesn't work because of life-time issues. One could
perf_event_set_output() on a fd that you're also blocking on and cause
the old rb object to be freed while its waitq would still be
referenced by the blocked thread -> FAIL.

Therefore link all events to the ringbuffer and broadcast the wakeup
from the ringbuffer object to all possible events that could be waited
upon. This is rather ugly, and we're open to better solutions but it
works for now.

12 years agoperf, x86: Force IBS LVT offset assignment for family 10h
Robert Richter [Tue, 8 Nov 2011 18:20:44 +0000 (19:20 +0100)]
perf, x86: Force IBS LVT offset assignment for family 10h

On AMD family 10h we see firmware bug messages like the following:

 [Firmware Bug]: cpu 6, try to use APIC500 (LVT offset 0) for vector 0x10400, but the register is already in use for vector 0xf9 on another cpu
 [Firmware Bug]: cpu 6, IBS interrupt offset 0 not available (MSRC001103A=0x0000000000000100)
 [Firmware Bug]: using offset 1 for IBS interrupts
 [Firmware Bug]: workaround enabled for IBS LVT offset
 perf: AMD IBS detected (0x00000007)

We always see this, since the offsets are not assigned by the BIOS for
this family. Force LVT offset assignment in this case. If the OS
assignment fails, fallback to BIOS settings and try to setup this.

The fallback to BIOS settings weakens the family check since
force_ibs_eilvt_setup() may fail e.g. in case of virtual machines.
But setup may still succeed if BIOS offsets are correct.

Other families don't have a workaround implemented that assigns LVT
offsets. It's ok, to drop calling force_ibs_eilvt_setup() for that
families.

With the patch the [Firmware Bug] messages vanish. We see now:

 IBS: LVT offset 1 assigned

12 years agox86: Fix boot failures on older AMD CPU's
Linus Torvalds [Sun, 4 Dec 2011 19:57:09 +0000 (11:57 -0800)]
x86: Fix boot failures on older AMD CPU's

People with old AMD chips are getting hung boots, because commit
bcb80e53877c ("x86, microcode, AMD: Add microcode revision to
/proc/cpuinfo") moved the microcode detection too early into
"early_init_amd()".

At that point we are *so* early in the booth that the exception tables
haven't even been set up yet, so the whole

rdmsr_safe(MSR_AMD64_PATCH_LEVEL, &c->microcode, &dummy);

doesn't actually work: if the rdmsr does a GP fault (due to non-existant
MSR register on older CPU's), we can't fix it up yet, and the boot fails.

Fix it by simply moving the code to a slightly later point in the boot
(init_amd() instead of early_init_amd()), since the kernel itself
doesn't even really care about the microcode patchlevel at this point
(or really ever: it's made available to user space in /proc/cpuinfo, and
updated if you do a microcode load).

12 years agoxen/pm_idle: Make pm_idle be default_idle under Xen.
Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk [Mon, 21 Nov 2011 23:02:02 +0000 (18:02 -0500)]
xen/pm_idle: Make pm_idle be default_idle under Xen.

The idea behind commit d91ee5863b71 ("cpuidle: replace xen access to x86
pm_idle and default_idle") was to have one call - disable_cpuidle()
which would make pm_idle not be molested by other code.  It disallows
cpuidle_idle_call to be set to pm_idle (which is excellent).

But in the select_idle_routine() and idle_setup(), the pm_idle can still
be set to either: amd_e400_idle, mwait_idle or default_idle.  This
depends on some CPU flags (MWAIT) and in AMD case on the type of CPU.

In case of mwait_idle we can hit some instances where the hypervisor
(Amazon EC2 specifically) sets the MWAIT and we get:

  Brought up 2 CPUs
  invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP

  Pid: 0, comm: swapper Not tainted 3.1.0-0.rc6.git0.3.fc16.x86_64 #1
  RIP: e030:[<ffffffff81015d1d>]  [<ffffffff81015d1d>] mwait_idle+0x6f/0xb4
  ...
  Call Trace:
   [<ffffffff8100e2ed>] cpu_idle+0xae/0xe8
   [<ffffffff8149ee78>] cpu_bringup_and_idle+0xe/0x10
  RIP  [<ffffffff81015d1d>] mwait_idle+0x6f/0xb4
   RSP <ffff8801d28ddf10>

In the case of amd_e400_idle we don't get so spectacular crashes, but we
do end up making an MSR which is trapped in the hypervisor, and then
follow it up with a yield hypercall.  Meaning we end up going to
hypervisor twice instead of just once.

The previous behavior before v3.0 was that pm_idle was set to
default_idle regardless of select_idle_routine/idle_setup.

We want to do that, but only for one specific case: Xen.  This patch
does that.
