2015-06-02powerpc/perf: Fix book3s kernel to userspace backtracesAnton Blanchard1-1/+10
When we take a PMU exception or a software event we call perf_read_regs(). This overloads regs->result with a boolean that describes if we should use the sampled instruction address register (SIAR) or the regs. If the exception is in kernel, we start with the kernel regs and backtrace through the kernel stack. At this point we switch to the userspace regs and backtrace the user stack with perf_callchain_user(). Unfortunately these regs have not got the perf_read_regs() treatment, so regs->result could be anything. If it is non zero, perf_instruction_pointer() decides to use the SIAR, and we get issues like this: 0.11% qemu-system-ppc [kernel.kallsyms] [k] _raw_spin_lock_irqsave | ---_raw_spin_lock_irqsave | |--52.35%-- 0 | | | |--46.39%-- __hrtimer_start_range_ns | | kvmppc_run_core | | kvmppc_vcpu_run_hv | | kvmppc_vcpu_run | | kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_run | | kvm_vcpu_ioctl | | do_vfs_ioctl | | sys_ioctl | | system_call | | | | | |--67.08%-- _raw_spin_lock_irqsave <--- hi mum | | | | | | | --100.00%-- 0x7e714 | | | 0x7e714 Notice the bogus _raw_spin_irqsave when we transition from kernel (system_call) to userspace (0x7e714). We inserted what was in the SIAR. Add a check in regs_use_siar() to check that the regs in question are from a PMU exception. With this fix the backtrace makes sense: 0.47% qemu-system-ppc [kernel.vmlinux] [k] _raw_spin_lock_irqsave | ---_raw_spin_lock_irqsave | |--53.83%-- 0 | | | |--44.73%-- hrtimer_try_to_cancel | | kvmppc_start_thread | | kvmppc_run_core | | kvmppc_vcpu_run_hv | | kvmppc_vcpu_run | | kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_run | | kvm_vcpu_ioctl | | do_vfs_ioctl | | sys_ioctl | | system_call | | __ioctl | | 0x7e714 | | 0x7e714 Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
2015-04-17powerpc/mm/thp: Make page table walk safe against thp split/collapseAneesh Kumar K.V1-10/+14
We can disable a THP split or a hugepage collapse by disabling irq. We do send IPI to all the cpus in the early part of split/collapse, and disabling local irq ensure we don't make progress with split/collapse. If the THP is getting split we return NULL from find_linux_pte_or_hugepte(). For all the current callers it should be ok. We need to be careful if we want to use returned pte_t pointer outside the irq disabled region. W.r.t to THP split, the pfn remains the same, but then a hugepage collapse will result in a pfn change. There are few steps we can take to avoid a hugepage collapse.One way is to take page reference inside the irq disable region. Other option is to take mmap_sem so that a parallel collapse will not happen. We can also disable collapse by taking pmd_lock. Another method used by kvm subsystem is to check whether we had a mmu_notifer update in between using mmu_notifier_retry().

Pull perf changes from Ingo Molnar: "Core kernel changes: - One of the more interesting features in this cycle is the ability to attach eBPF programs (user-defined, sandboxed bytecode executed by the kernel) to kprobes. This allows user-defined instrumentation on a live kernel image that can never crash, hang or interfere with the kernel negatively. (Right now it's limited to root-only, but in the future we might allow unprivileged use as well.) (Alexei Starovoitov) - Another non-trivial feature is per event clockid support: this allows, amongst other things, the selection of different clock sources for event timestamps traced via perf. This feature is sought by people who'd like to merge perf generated events with external events that were measured with different clocks: - cluster wide profiling - for system wide tracing with user-space events, - JIT profiling events etc. Matching perf tooling support is added as well, available via the -k, --clockid <clockid> parameter to perf record et al. (Peter Zijlstra) Hardware enablement kernel changes: - x86 Intel Processor Trace (PT) support: which is a hardware tracer on steroids, available on Broadwell CPUs. The hardware trace stream is directly output into the user-space ring-buffer, using the 'AUX' data format extension that was added to the perf core to support hardware constraints such as the necessity to have the tracing buffer physically contiguous. This patch-set was developed for two years and this is the result. A simple way to make use of this is to use BTS tracing, the PT driver emulates BTS output - available via the 'intel_bts' PMU. More explicit PT specific tooling support is in the works as well - will probably be ready by 4.2. (Alexander Shishkin, Peter Zijlstra) - x86 Intel Cache QoS Monitoring (CQM) support: this is a hardware feature of Intel Xeon CPUs that allows the measurement and allocation/partitioning of caches to individual workloads. These kernel changes expose the measurement side as a new PMU driver, which exposes various QoS related PMU events. (The partitioning change is work in progress and is planned to be merged as a cgroup extension.) (Matt Fleming, Peter Zijlstra; CPU feature detection by Peter P Waskiewicz Jr) - x86 Intel Haswell LBR call stack support: this is a new Haswell feature that allows the hardware recording of call chains, plus tooling support. To activate this feature you have to enable it via the new 'lbr' call-graph recording option: perf record --call-graph lbr perf report or: perf top --call-graph lbr This hardware feature is a lot faster than stack walk or dwarf based unwinding, but has some limitations: - It reuses the current LBR facility, so LBR call stack and branch record can not be enabled at the same time. - It is only available for user-space callchains. (Yan, Zheng) - x86 Intel Broadwell CPU support and various event constraints and event table fixes for earlier models. (Andi Kleen) - x86 Intel HT CPUs event scheduling workarounds. This is a complex CPU bug affecting the SNB,IVB,HSW families that results in counter value corruption. The mitigation code is automatically enabled and is transparent. (Maria Dimakopoulou, Stephane Eranian) The perf tooling side had a ton of changes in this cycle as well, so I'm only able to list the user visible changes here, in addition to the tooling changes outlined above: User visible changes affecting all tools: - Improve support of compressed kernel modules (Jiri Olsa) - Save DSO loading errno to better report errors (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) - Bash completion for subcommands (Yunlong Song) - Add 'I' event modifier for perf_event_attr.exclude_idle bit (Jiri Olsa) - Support missing -f to override perf.data file ownership. (Yunlong Song) - Show the first event with an invalid filter (David Ahern, Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) User visible changes in individual tools: 'perf data': New tool for converting perf.data to other formats, initially for the CTF (Common Trace Format) from LTTng (Jiri Olsa, Sebastian Siewior) 'perf diff': Add --kallsyms option (David Ahern) 'perf list': Allow listing events with 'tracepoint' prefix (Yunlong Song) Sort the output of the command (Yunlong Song) 'perf kmem': Respect -i option (Jiri Olsa) Print big numbers using thousands' group (Namhyung Kim) Allow -v option (Namhyung Kim) Fix alignment of slab result table (Namhyung Kim) 'perf probe': Support multiple probes on different binaries on the same command line (Masami Hiramatsu) Support unnamed union/structure members data collection. (Masami Hiramatsu) Check kprobes blacklist when adding new events. (Masami Hiramatsu) 'perf record': Teach 'perf record' about perf_event_attr.clockid (Peter Zijlstra) Support recording running/enabled time (Andi Kleen) 'perf sched': Improve the performance of 'perf sched replay' on high CPU core count machines (Yunlong Song) 'perf report' and 'perf top': Allow annotating entries in callchains in the hists browser (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) Indicate which callchain entries are annotated in the TUI hists browser (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) Add pid/tid filtering to 'report' and 'script' commands (David Ahern) Consider PERF_RECORD_ events with cpumode == 0 in 'perf top', removing one cause of long term memory usage buildup, i.e. not processing PERF_RECORD_EXIT events (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) 'perf stat': Report unsupported events properly (Suzuki K. Poulose) Output running time and run/enabled ratio in CSV mode (Andi Kleen) 'perf trace': Handle legacy syscalls tracepoints (David Ahern, Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) Only insert blank duration bracket when tracing syscalls (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) Filter out the trace pid when no threads are specified (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) Dump stack on segfaults (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) No need to explicitely enable evsels for workload started from perf, let it be enabled via perf_event_attr.enable_on_exec, removing some events that take place in the 'perf trace' before a workload is really started by it. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) Allow mixing with tracepoints and suppressing plain syscalls.

2015-02-02powerpc/perf/{hv-gpci, hv-common}: generate requests with counters annotatedCody P Schafer10-30/+316
This adds (in req-gen/) a framework for defining gpci counter requests. It uses macro magic similar to ftrace.

Retrieves and parses the 24x7 catalog on POWER systems that supply it (right now, only POWER 8). Events are exposed via sysfs in the standard fashion, and are all parameterized. $ cd /sys/bus/event_source/devices/hv_24x7/events $ cat HPM_CS_FROM_L4_LDATA__PHYS_CORE domain=0x2,offset=0xd58,core=?,lpar=0x0 $ cat HPM_TLBIE__VCPU_HOME_CHIP domain=0x4,offset=0x358,vcpu=?,lpar=? where user is required to specify values for the fields with '?' (like core, vcpu, lpar above), when specifying the event with the perf tool. Catalog is (at the moment) only parsed on boot. It needs re-parsing when a some hypervisor events occur. At that point we'll also need to prevent old events from continuing to function (counter that is passed in via spare space in the config values?).

The 24x7 counters are continuously running and not updated on an interrupt. So we record the event counts when stopping the event or deleting it. But to "read" a single counter in 24x7, we allocate a page and pass it into the hypervisor (The HV returns the page full of counters from which we extract the specific counter for this event). We allocate a page using GFP_USER and when deleting the event, we end up with the following warning because we are blocking in interrupt context. [ 698.641709] BUG: scheduling while atomic: swapper/0/0/0x10010000 We could use GFP_ATOMIC but that could result in failures. Pre-allocate a buffer so we don't have to allocate in interrupt context.

2014-11-03powerpc: Replace __get_cpu_var usesChristoph Lameter2-14/+14
This still has not been merged and now powerpc is the only arch that does not have this change. Sorry about missing linuxppc-dev before. V2->V2 - Fix up to work against 3.18-rc1 __get_cpu_var() is used for multiple purposes in the kernel source. One of them is address calculation via the form &__get_cpu_var(x). This calculates the address for the instance of the percpu variable of the current processor based on an offset. Other use cases are for storing and retrieving data from the current processors percpu area. __get_cpu_var() can be used as an lvalue when writing data or on the right side of an assignment. __get_cpu_var() is defined as : __get_cpu_var() always only does an address determination. However, store and retrieve operations could use a segment prefix (or global register on other platforms) to avoid the address calculation. this_cpu_write() and this_cpu_read() can directly take an offset into a percpu area and use optimized assembly code to read and write per cpu variables. This patch converts __get_cpu_var into either an explicit address calculation using this_cpu_ptr() or into a use of this_cpu operations that use the offset. Thereby address calculations are avoided and less registers are used when code is generated. At the end of the patch set all uses of __get_cpu_var have been removed so the macro is removed too. The patch set includes passes over all arches as well. Once these operations are used throughout then specialized macros can be defined in non -x86 arches as well in order to optimize per cpu access by f.e. using a global register that may be set to the per cpu base. Transformations done to __get_cpu_var() 1. Determine the address of the percpu instance of the current processor.

ABIv2 kernels are failing to backtrace through the kernel. An example: 39.30% readseek2_proce [kernel.kallsyms] [k] find_get_entry | --- find_get_entry __GI___libc_read The problem is in valid_next_sp() where we check that the new stack pointer is at least STACK_FRAME_OVERHEAD below the previous one. ABIv1 has a minimum stack frame size of 112 bytes consisting of 48 bytes and 64 bytes of parameter save area. ABIv2 changes that to 32 bytes with no paramter save area. STACK_FRAME_OVERHEAD is in theory the minimum stack frame size, but we over 240 uses of it, some of which assume that it includes space for the parameter area. We need to work through all our stack defines and rationalise them but let's fix perf now by creating STACK_FRAME_MIN_SIZE and using in valid_next_sp().

2014-07-28powerpc/perf: Add per-event excludes on Power8Michael Ellerman2-24/+67
Power8 has a new register (MMCR2), which contains individual freeze bits for each counter. This is an improvement on previous chips as it means we can have multiple events on the PMU at the same time with different exclude_{user,kernel,hv} settings. Previously we had to ensure all events on the PMU had the same exclude settings. The core of the patch is fairly simple. We use the 207S feature flag to indicate that the PMU backend supports per-event excludes, if it's set we skip the generic logic that enforces the equality of excludes between events. We also use that flag to skip setting the freeze bits in MMCR0, the PMU backend is expected to have handled setting them in MMCR2. The complication arises with EBB. The FCxP bits in MMCR2 are accessible R/W to a task using EBB. Which means a task using EBB will be able to see that we are using MMCR2 for freezing, whereas the old logic which used MMCR0 is not user visible. The task can not see or affect exclude_kernel & exclude_hv, so we only need to consider exclude_user. The table below summarises the behaviour both before and after this commit is applied: exclude_user true false ------------------------------------ | User visible | N N Before | Can freeze | Y Y | Can unfreeze | N Y ------------------------------------ | User visible | Y Y After | Can freeze | Y Y | Can unfreeze | Y/N Y ------------------------------------ So firstly I assert that the simple visibility of the exclude_user setting in MMCR2 is a non-issue. The event belongs to the task, and was most likely created by the task. So the exclude_user setting is not privileged information in any way. Secondly, the behaviour in the exclude_user = false case is unchanged. This is important as it is the case that is actually useful, ie. the event is created with no exclude setting and the task uses MMCR2 to implement exclusion manually. For exclude_user = true there is no meaningful change to freezing the event. Previously the task could use MMCR2 to freeze the event, though it was already frozen with MMCR0. With the new code the task can use MMCR2 to freeze the event, though it was already frozen with MMCR2. The only real change is when exclude_user = true and the task tries to use MMCR2 to unfreeze the event. Previously this had no effect, because the event was already frozen in MMCR0. With the new code the task can unfreeze the event in MMCR2, but at some indeterminate time in the future the kernel will overwrite its setting and refreeze the event. Therefore my final assertion is that any task using exclude_user = true and also fiddling with MMCR2 was deeply confused before this change, and remains so after it.

2014-07-11powerpc/perf: Clear MMCR2 when enabling PMUJoel Stanley1-0/+3
On POWER8 when switching to a KVM guest we set bits in MMCR2 to freeze the PMU counters. Aside from on boot they are then never reset, resulting in stuck perf counters for any user in the guest or host. We now set MMCR2 to 0 whenever enabling the PMU, which provides a sane state for perf to use the PMU counters under either the guest or the host. This was manifesting as a bug with ppc64_cpu --frequency: $ sudo ppc64_cpu --frequency WARNING: couldn't run on cpu 0 WARNING: couldn't run on cpu 8 ... WARNING: couldn't run on cpu 144 WARNING: couldn't run on cpu 152 min: 18446744073.710 GHz (cpu -1) max: 0.000 GHz (cpu -1) avg: 0.000 GHz The command uses a perf counter to measure CPU cycles over a fixed amount of time, in order to approximate the frequency of the machine. The counters were returning zero once a guest was started, regardless of weather it was still running or had been shut down. By dumping the value of MMCR2, it was observed that once a guest is running MMCR2 is set to 1s - which stops counters from running: $ sudo sh -c 'echo p > /proc/sysrq-trigger' CPU: 0 PMU registers, ppmu = POWER8 n_counters = 6 PMC1: 5b635e38 PMC2: 00000000 PMC3: 00000000 PMC4: 00000000 PMC5: 1bf5a646 PMC6: 5793d378 PMC7: deadbeef PMC8: deadbeef MMCR0: 0000000080000000 MMCR1: 000000001e000000 MMCRA: 0000040000000000 MMCR2: fffffffffffffc00 EBBHR: 0000000000000000 EBBRR: 0000000000000000 BESCR: 0000000000000000 SIAR: 00000000000a51cc SDAR: c00000000fc40000 SIER: 0000000001000000 This is done unconditionally in book3s_hv_interrupts.S upon entering the guest, and the original value is only save/restored if the host has indicated it was using the PMU.
