Knights Landing uncore performance monitoring (perfmon) is derived from
Haswell-EP uncore perfmon with several differences. One notable difference
is in PCI device IDs. Knights Landing uses common PCI device ID for
multiple instances of an uncore PMU device type. In Haswell-EP, each
instance of a PMU device type has a unique device ID.
Knights Landing uncore components that have performance monitoring units
are UBOX, CHA, EDC, MC, M2PCIe, IRP and PCU. Perfmon registers in EDC, MC,
IRP, and M2PCIe reside in the PCIe configuration space. Perfmon registers
in UBOX, CHA and PCU are accessed via the MSR interface.

Call uncore_pci_box_ctl() function to get the PMON box control MSR offset
instead of hard coding the offset. This would allow us to use this
snbep_uncore_pci_init_box() function for other PCI PMON devices whose box
control MSR offset is different from SNBEP_PCI_PMON_BOX_CTL.

Knights Landing core is based on Silvermont core with several differences.
Like Silvermont, Knights Landing has 8 pairs of LBR MSRs. However, the
LBR MSRs addresses match those of the Xeon cores' first 8 pairs of LBR MSRs
Unlike Silvermont, Knights Landing supports hyperthreading. Knights Landing
offcore response events config register mask is different from that of the
Silvermont.
This patch was developed based on a patch from Andi Kleen.

This patch updates the PEBS support for Intel Atom to provide
an alias for the cycles:pp event used by perf record/top by default
nowadays.
On Atom, only INST_RETIRED:ANY supports PEBS, so we use this event
instead with a large cmask to count cycles. Given that Core2 has
the same issue, we use the intel_pebs_aliases_core2() function for Atom
as well.

This patches fixes the LBR kernel crashes on Intel Atom.
The kernel was assuming that if the CPU supports 64-bit format
LBR, then it has an LBR_SELECT MSR. Atom uses 64-bit LBR format
but does not have LBR_SELECT. That was causing NULL pointer
dereferences in a couple of places.

This patch fixes a bug in the filter_events() function.
The patch fixes the bug whereby if some mappings did not
exist, e.g., STALLED_CYCLES_FRONTEND, then any event after it
in the attrs array would disappear from the published list of
events in /sys/devices/cpu/events. This could be verified
easily on any system post SNB (which do not publish
STALLED_CYCLES_FRONTEND):
$ ./perf stat -e cycles,ref-cycles true
Performance counter stats for 'true':
1,217,348 cycles
<not supported> ref-cycles
The problem is that in filter_events() there is an assumption
that the argument (attrs) is organized in increasing continuous
event indexes related to the event_map(). But if we remove the
non-supported events by shifing the position in the array, then
the lookup x86_pmu.event_map() needs to compensate for it, otherwise
we are looking up the wrong index. This patch corrects this problem
by compensating for the deleted events and with that ref-cycles
reappears (here shown on Haswell):
$ perf stat -e ref-cycles,cycles true
Performance counter stats for 'true':
4,525,910 ref-cycles
1,064,920 cycles

Add a new 'three-p' precise level, that uses INST_RETIRED.PREC_DIST as
base. The basic mechanism of abusing the inverse cmask to get all
cycles works the same as before.
PREC_DIST is available on Sandy Bridge or later. It had some problems
on Sandy Bridge, so we only use it on IvyBridge and later. I tested it
on Broadwell and Skylake.
PREC_DIST has special support for avoiding shadow effects, which can
give better results compare to UOPS_RETIRED. The drawback is that
PREC_DIST can only schedule on counter 1, but that is ok for cycle
sampling, as there is normally no need to do multiple cycle sampling
runs in parallel. It is still possible to run perf top in parallel, as
that doesn't use precise mode. Also of course the multiplexing can
still allow parallel operation.
:pp stays with the previous event.
Example:
Sample a loop with 10 sqrt with old cycles:pp
0.14 │10: sqrtps %xmm1,%xmm0 <--------------
9.13 │ sqrtps %xmm1,%xmm0
11.58 │ sqrtps %xmm1,%xmm0
11.51 │ sqrtps %xmm1,%xmm0
6.27 │ sqrtps %xmm1,%xmm0
10.38 │ sqrtps %xmm1,%xmm0
12.20 │ sqrtps %xmm1,%xmm0
12.74 │ sqrtps %xmm1,%xmm0
5.40 │ sqrtps %xmm1,%xmm0
10.14 │ sqrtps %xmm1,%xmm0
10.51 │ ↑ jmp 10
We expect all 10 sqrt to get roughly the sample number of samples.
But you can see that the instruction directly after the JMP is
systematically underestimated in the result, due to sampling shadow
effects.
With the new PREC_DIST based sampling this problem is gone and all
instructions show up roughly evenly:
9.51 │10: sqrtps %xmm1,%xmm0
11.74 │ sqrtps %xmm1,%xmm0
11.84 │ sqrtps %xmm1,%xmm0
6.05 │ sqrtps %xmm1,%xmm0
10.46 │ sqrtps %xmm1,%xmm0
12.25 │ sqrtps %xmm1,%xmm0
12.18 │ sqrtps %xmm1,%xmm0
5.26 │ sqrtps %xmm1,%xmm0
10.13 │ sqrtps %xmm1,%xmm0
10.43 │ sqrtps %xmm1,%xmm0
0.16 │ ↑ jmp 10
Even with PREC_DIST there is still sampling skid and the result is not
completely even, but systematic shadow effects are significantly
reduced.
The improvements are mainly expected to make a difference in high IPC
code. With low IPC it should be similar.

I added UOPS_RETIRED.ALL by mistake to the Skylake PEBS event list for
cycles:pp. But the event is not documented for Skylake, and has some
issues.
The recommended replacement for cycles:pp is to use
INST_RETIRED.ANY+pebs as a base, similar to what CPUs before Sandy
Bridge did. This new event is called INST_RETIRED.TOTAL_CYCLES_PS. The
event is not really new, but has been already used by perf before
Sandy Bridge for the original cycles:p
Note the SDM doesn't document that event either, but it's being
documented in the latest version of the event list on:
https://download.01.org/perfmon/SKL
This patch does:
- Remove UOPS_RETIRED.ALL from the Skylake PEBS event list
- Add INST_RETIRED.ANY to the Skylake PEBS event list, and an table entry to
allow cmask=16,inv=1 for cycles:pp
- We don't need an extra entry for the base INST_RETIRED event,
because it is already covered by the catch-all PEBS table entry.
- Switch Skylake to use the Core2 PEBS alias (which is
INST_RETIRED.TOTAL_CYCLES_PS)

Normally we drop PEBS events with a zero status field. But when
there is only a single PEBS event active we can assume the
PEBS record is for that event. The PEBS buffer is always flushed
when PEBS events are disabled, so there is no risk of mishandling
state PEBS records this way.

The recent commit:
75f80859b1 ("perf/x86/intel/pebs: Robustify PEBS buffer drain")
causes lots of warnings on different CPUs before Skylake
when running PEBS intensive workloads.
They can have a zero status field in the PEBS record when
PEBS is racing with clearing of GLOBAl_STATUS.
This also can cause hangs (it seems there are still
problems with printk in NMI).
Disable the warning, but still ignore the record.

This patch collapses the two 'hard' cases, which are
perf_event_{dis,en}able().
I cannot seem to convince myself the current code is correct.
So starting with perf_event_disable(); we don't strictly need to test
for event->state == ACTIVE, ctx->is_active is enough. If the event is
not scheduled while the ctx is, __perf_event_disable() still does the
right thing. Its a little less efficient to IPI in that case,
over-all simpler.
For perf_event_enable(); the same goes, but I think that's actually
broken in its current form. The current condition is: ctx->is_active
&& event->state == OFF, that means it doesn't do anything when
!ctx->active && event->state == OFF. This is wrong, it should still
mark the event INACTIVE in that case, otherwise we'll still not try
and schedule the event once the context becomes active again.
This patch implements the two function using the new
event_function_call() and does away with the tricky event->state
tests.

There's a race on CPU unplug where we free the swevent hash array
while it can still have events on. This will result in a
use-after-free which is BAD.
Simply do not free the hash array on unplug. This leaves the thing
around and no use-after-free takes place.
When the last swevent dies, we do a for_each_possible_cpu() iteration
anyway to clean these up, at which time we'll free it, so no leakage
will occur.

This patchset abandons the idea of new formula language and rather adds support
to:
- store stat data into perf.data file
- add python support to process stat events
Basically it allows to store stat data into perf.data and post process it with
python scripts in a similar way we do for sampling data.
The stat data are stored in new stat, stat-round, stat-config user events.
stat - stored for each read syscall of the counter
stat round - stored for each interval or end of the command invocation
stat config - stores all the config information needed to process data
so report tool could restore the same output as record
The python script can now define 'stat__<eventname>_<modifier>' functions
to get stat events data and 'stat__interval' to get stat-round data.
See CPI script example in scripts/python/stat-cpi.py.

http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=136742146322273&w=2
This patchset abandons the idea of new formula language and rather adds support
to:
- store stat data into perf.data file
- add python support to process stat events
Basically it allows to store stat data into perf.data and post process it with
python scripts in a similar way we do for sampling data.
The stat data are stored in new stat, stat-round, stat-config user events.
stat - stored for each read syscall of the counter
stat round - stored for each interval or end of the command invocation
stat config - stores all the config information needed to process data
so report tool could restore the same output as record
The python script can now define 'stat__<eventname>_<modifier>' functions
to get stat events data and 'stat__interval' to get stat-round data.
See CPI script example in scripts/python/stat-cpi.py."
Also a few other changes:
User visible changes:
- Make command line options always available, even when they
depend on some feature being enabled, warning the user about
use of such options (Wang Nan)
- Support --vmlinux in perf record, useful, so far, for eBPF,
where we will set up events that will be used in the record
session (He Kuang)
- Automatically disable collecting branch flags and cycles with
--call-graph lbr. This allows avoiding a bunch of extra MSR
reads in the PMI on Skylake. (Andi Kleen)
Infrastructure changes:
- Dump the stack when a 'perf test -v ' entry segfaults, so far we
would have to run it under gdb with 'set follow-fork-mode child'
set to get a proper backtrace (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Initialize the refcnt in 'struct thread' to 1 and fixup its
users accordingly, so that we try to have the same refcount
model accross the perf codebase (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- More prep work for moving the subcmd infrastructure out of
tools/perf/ and into tools/lib/subcmd/ to be used by other
tools/ living utilities (Josh Poimboeuf)
- Fix 'perf test' hist testcases when kptr_restrict is on (Namhyung Kim)

The record command could be specified anywhere among stat options. All

exception. If specified for record command it denotes the perf data file
name.
Committer note:

No warnings, sensible output about what are the events in the perf.data file and also
a "file has no samples" message, which indeed it doesn't.

Introducing the 'stat' feature to mark a perf.data as created by the
'perf stat record' command. It contains no data.
It's needed so that the report tools (report/script) can differentiate
sampling data from counting data, because they need to be treated in a
different way.
In the future it might be used to store the version of the stat storage
system used.

It'll serve as a base event for additional event attributes details,
that are not part of the attr event.
At the moment this event is just a dummy one without any specific
functionality. The type value will distinguish the update event details.
It'll come in the following patches.
The idea for this event is to be extensible for any update that the
event might need in the future.
