2010-05-10Oprofile: Change CPUIDS from decimal to hex, and add some commentsJohn Villalovos1-2/+14
Back when the patch was submitted for "Add Xeon 7500 series support to oprofile", Robert Richter had asked for a followon patch that converted all the CPU ID values to hex. I have done that here for the "i386/core_i7" and "i386/atom" class processors in the ppro_init() function and also added some comments on where to find documentation on the Intel processors.

2010-05-06oprofile/x86: make AMD IBS hotplug capableRobert Richter1-2/+2
Current IBS code is not hotplug capable. An offline cpu might not be initialized or deinitialized properly. This patch fixes this by removing on_each_cpu() functions. The IBS init/deinit code is executed in the per-cpu functions model->setup_ctrs() and model->cpu_down() which are also called by hotplug notifiers. model->cpu_down() replaces model->exit() that became obsolete.

2010-05-06oprofile/x86: notify cpus only when daemon is runningRobert Richter1-13/+3
This patch moves the cpu notifier registration from nmi_init() to nmi_setup(). The corresponding unregistration function is now in nmi_shutdown(). Thus, the hotplug code is only active, if the oprofile daemon is running. Cc: Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org> Signed-off-by: Robert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com>

Reordering some functions. Necessary for the next patch. No functional changes. Cc: Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org> Signed-off-by: Robert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com>
2010-05-04oprofile/x86: stop disabled counters in nmi handlerRobert Richter1-2/+10
This patch adds checks to the nmi handler. Now samples are only generated and counters reenabled, if the counters are running. Otherwise the counters are stopped, if oprofile is using the nmi. In other cases it will ignore the nmi notification. Cc: Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org> Signed-off-by: Robert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com>
2010-05-04oprofile/x86: protect cpu hotplug sectionsRobert Richter1-6/+46
This patch reworks oprofile cpu hotplug code as follows: Introduce ctr_running variable to check, if counters are running or not. The state must be known for taking a cpu on or offline and when switching counters during counter multiplexing. Protect on_each_cpu() sections with get_online_cpus()/put_online_cpu() functions. This is necessary if notifiers or states are modified. Within these sections the cpu mask may not change. Switch only between counters in nmi_cpu_switch(), if counters are running. Otherwise the switch may restart a counter though they are disabled. Add nmi_cpu_setup() and nmi_cpu_shutdown() to cpu hotplug code. The function must also be called to avoid uninitialzed counter usage. Cc: Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org> Signed-off-by: Robert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com>
2010-05-04oprofile/x86: remove CONFIG_SMP macrosRobert Richter1-6/+1
CPU notifier register functions also exist if CONFIG_SMP is disabled. This change is part of hotplug code rework and also necessary for later patches. Cc: Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org> Signed-off-by: Robert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com>
2010-05-04oprofile/x86: fix uninitialized counter usage during cpu hotplugRobert Richter1-2/+8
This fixes a NULL pointer dereference that is triggered when taking a cpu offline after oprofile was initialized, e.g.: $ opcontrol --init $ opcontrol --start-daemon $ opcontrol --shutdown $ opcontrol --deinit $ echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online See the crash dump below. Though the counter has been disabled the cpu notifier is still active and trying to use already freed counter data. This fix is for linux-stable. To proper fix this, the hotplug code must be rewritten. Thus I will leave a WARN_ON_ONCE() message with this patch.

2009-07-20oprofile: Introduce op_x86_phys_to_virt()Robert Richter1-20/+23
This new function translates physical to virtual counter numbers. Signed-off-by: Robert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com>
2009-07-20x86/oprofile: Fix initialization of switch_indexRobert Richter1-7/+9
Variable switch_index must be initialized for each cpu. This patch fixes the initialization by moving it to the per-cpu init function nmi_cpu_setup(). Signed-off-by: Robert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com>
2009-07-20x86/oprofile: Use per_cpu() instead of __get_cpu_var()Robert Richter1-2/+2
__get_cpu_var() calls smp_processor_id(). When the cpu id is already known, instead use per_cpu() to avoid generating the id again. Signed-off-by: Robert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com>
2009-07-20oprofile: Implement performance counter multiplexingJason Yeh1-5/+157
The number of hardware counters is limited. The multiplexing feature enables OProfile to gather more events than counters are provided by the hardware. This is realized by switching between events at an user specified time interval. A new file (/dev/oprofile/time_slice) is added for the user to specify the timer interval in ms. If the number of events to profile is higher than the number of hardware counters available, the patch will schedule a work queue that switches the event counter and re-writes the different sets of values into it. The switching mechanism needs to be implemented for each architecture to support multiplexing. This patch only implements AMD CPU support, but multiplexing can be easily extended for other models and architectures. There are follow-on patches that rework parts of this patch.

2009-07-14x86/oprofile: Rework and simplify nmi_cpu_setup()Robert Richter1-10/+3
This patch removes the function nmi_save_registers(). Per-cpu code is now executed only in the function nmi_cpu_setup(). Also, it renames the per-cpu function nmi_restore_registers() to nmi_cpu_restore_registers(). Signed-off-by: Robert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com>

2009-07-10x86/oprofile: rename kernel parameter for architectural perfmon to arch_perfmonRobert Richter1-1/+1
The short name of the achitecture is 'arch_perfmon'. This patch changes the kernel parameter to use this name. Cc: Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org> Signed-off-by: Robert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2009-06-12x86/oprofile: fix initialization of arch_perfmon for core_i7Robert Richter1-2/+3
Commit: e419294 x86/oprofile: moving arch_perfmon counter setup to op_x86_model_spec.init introduced a bug in the initialization of core_i7 leading to the incorrect model setup to &op_ppro_spec. This patch fixes this. Signed-off-by: Robert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com>

The patch removes some local variables in these functions. Signed-off-by: Robert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com>
2009-06-11x86/oprofile: use 64 bit values to save MSR statesRobert Richter1-20/+8
This patch removes struct op_saved_msr and replaces it by an u64 variable. This makes code easier and it is possible to use 64 bit MSR functions. Signed-off-by: Robert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com>
2009-06-11x86/oprofile: replace macros to calculate control registerRobert Richter1-0/+20
This patch introduces op_x86_get_ctrl() to calculate the value of the performance control register. This is generic code usable for all models. The event and reserved masks are model specific and stored in struct op_x86_model_spec. 64 bit MSR functions are used now. The patch removes many hard to read macros used for ctrl calculation. The function op_x86_get_ctrl() is common code and the first step to further merge performance counter implementations for x86 models. Signed-off-by: Robert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com>
2009-06-11x86/oprofile: pass the model to setup_ctrs() functionsRobert Richter1-1/+1
