powerpc/perf: Adds support for programming of Thresholding in P10
Thresholding, a performance monitoring unit feature, can be used to identify marked instructions which take more than expected cycles between start event and end event. Threshold compare (thresh_cmp) bits are programmed in MMCRA register. In Power9, thresh_cmp bits were part of the event code. But in case of P10, thresh_cmp are not part of event code due to inclusion of MMCR3 bits. Patch here adds an option to use attr.config1 variable to be used to pass thresh_cmp value to be programmed in MMCRA register. A new ppmu flag called PPMU_HAS_ATTR_CONFIG1 has been added and this flag is used to notify the use of attr.config1 variable. Patch has extended the parameter list of 'compute_mmcr', to include power_pmu's 'flags' element and parameter list of get_constraint to include attr.config1 value. It also extend parameter list of power_check_constraints inorder to pass perf_event list. As stated by commit ef0e3b650f8d ("powerpc/perf: Fix Threshold Event Counter Multiplier width for P10"), constraint bits for thresh_cmp is also needed to be increased to 11 bits, which is handled as part of this patch. We added bit number 53 as part of constraint bits of thresh_cmp for power10 to make it an 11 bit field. Updated layout for p10: /* * Layout of constraint bits: * * 60 56 52 48 44 40 36 32 * | - - - - | - - - - | - - - - | - - - - | - - - - | - - - - | - - - - | - - - - | * [ fab_match ] [ thresh_cmp ] [ thresh_ctl ] [ ] * | | * [ thresh_cmp bits for p10] thresh_sel -* * * 28 24 20 16 12 8 4 0 * | - - - - | - - - - | - - - - | - - - - | - - - - | - - - - | - - - - | - - - - | * [ ] | [ ] | [ sample ] [ ] [6] [5] [4] [3] [2] [1] * | | | | | * BHRB IFM -* | | |*radix_scope | Count of events for each PMC. * EBB -* | | p1, p2, p3, p4, p5, p6. * L1 I/D qualifier -* | * nc - number of counters -* * * The PMC fields P1..P6, and NC, are adder fields.
