perf/x86/intel: Fix PEBS warning by only restoring active PMU in pmi
This patch tries to fix a PEBS warning found in my stress test. The
following perf command can easily trigger the pebs warning or spurious
NMI error on Skylake/Broadwell/Haswell platforms:
sudo perf record -e 'cpu/umask=0x04,event=0xc4/pp,cycles,branches,ref-cycles,cache-misses,cache-references' --call-graph fp -b -c1000 -a
Also the NMI watchdog must be enabled.
For this case, the events number is larger than counter number. So
perf has to do multiplexing.
In perf_mux_hrtimer_handler, it does perf_pmu_disable(), schedule out
old events, rotate_ctx, schedule in new events and finally
perf_pmu_enable().
If the old events include precise event, the MSR_IA32_PEBS_ENABLE
should be cleared when perf_pmu_disable(). The MSR_IA32_PEBS_ENABLE
should keep 0 until the perf_pmu_enable() is called and the new event is
precise event.
However, there is a corner case which could restore PEBS_ENABLE to
stale value during the above period. In perf_pmu_disable(), GLOBAL_CTRL
will be set to 0 to stop overflow and followed PMI. But there may be
pending PMI from an earlier overflow, which cannot be stopped. So even
GLOBAL_CTRL is cleared, the kernel still be possible to get PMI. At
the end of the PMI handler, __intel_pmu_enable_all() will be called,
which will restore the stale values if old events haven't scheduled
out.
Once the stale pebs value is set, it's impossible to be corrected if
the new events are non-precise. Because the pebs_enabled will be set
to 0. x86_pmu.enable_all() will ignore the MSR_IA32_PEBS_ENABLE
setting. As a result, the following NMI with stale PEBS_ENABLE
trigger pebs warning.
The pending PMI after enabled=0 will become harmless if the NMI handler
does not change the state. This patch checks cpuc->enabled in pmi and
only restore the state when PMU is active.
Here is the dump:

Uhhuh. NMI received for unknown reason 2d on CPU 2.
Do you have a strange power saving mode enabled?
