* powerpc/perf: Fix ABIv2 kernel backtracesAnton Blanchard2014-09-091-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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(). This fixes the issue: 30.64% readseek2_proce [kernel.kallsyms] [k] find_get_entry | --- find_get_entry pagecache_get_page generic_file_read_iter new_sync_read vfs_read sys_read syscall_exit __GI___libc_read Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # 3.16+ Reported-by: Aneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org>

The short story: The biggest bit is Michael removing all of pre-POWER4 processor support from the 64-bit kernel. POWER3 and rs64. This gets rid of a ton of old cruft that has been bitrotting in a long while. It was broken for quite a few versions already and nobody noticed. Nobody uses those machines anymore. While at it, he cleaned up a bunch of old dusty cabinets, getting rid of a skeletton or two. Then, we have some base VFIO support for KVM, which allows assigning of PCI devices to KVM guests, support for large 64-bit BARs on "powernv" platforms, support for HMI (Hardware Management Interrupts) on those same platforms, some sparse-vmemmap improvements (for memory hotplug), There is the usual batch of Freescale embedded updates (summary in the merge commit) and fixes here or there, I think that's it for the highlights" * 'next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/benh/powerpc: (102 commits) powerpc/eeh: Export eeh_iommu_group_to_pe() powerpc/eeh: Add missing #ifdef CONFIG_IOMMU_API powerpc: Reduce scariness of interrupt frames in stack traces powerpc: start loop at section start of start in vmemmap_populated() powerpc: implement vmemmap_free() powerpc: implement vmemmap_remove_mapping() for BOOK3S powerpc: implement vmemmap_list_free() powerpc: Fail remap_4k_pfn() if PFN doesn't fit inside PTE powerpc/book3s: Fix endianess issue for HMI handling on napping cpus. powerpc/book3s: handle HMIs for cpus in nap mode. powerpc/powernv: Invoke opal call to handle hmi. powerpc/book3s: Add basic infrastructure to handle HMI in Linux. powerpc/iommu: Fix comments with it_page_shift powerpc/powernv: Handle compound PE in config accessors powerpc/powernv: Handle compound PE for EEH powerpc/powernv: Handle compound PE powerpc/powernv: Split ioda_eeh_get_state() powerpc/powernv: Allow to freeze PE powerpc/powernv: Enable M64 aperatus for PHB3 powerpc/eeh: Aux PE data for error log ...
| * powerpc/perf: Add per-event excludes on Power8Michael Ellerman2014-07-282-24/+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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We are seeing a lot of PMU warnings on POWER8: Can't find PMC that caused IRQ Looking closer, the active PMC is 0 at this point and we took a PMU exception on the transition from negative to 0. Some versions of POWER8 have an issue where they edge detect and not level detect PMC overflows. A number of places program the PMC with (0x80000000 - period_left), where period_left can be negative. We can either fix all of these or just ensure that period_left is always >= 1. This patch takes the second option.

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.

These counters do not have a fixed format/possition and are instead documented in a "24x7 Catalog", which is provided by the hypervisor (that interface is also documented paritialy in the included hv-24x7-catalog.h and fully in at https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jmesmon/catalog-24x7/master/hv-24x7-catalog.h ). The 24x7 data access is simply a copy operation into a 4 dimentional array of 64bit counters (from hypervisor to kernel memory). There is no interupt triggered on overflow, these are completely disjoint from the typical power pmu. This method of obtaining performance counters from the hypervisor is intended to paritialy replace the gpci interface.

* powerpc/perf: Enable BHRB access for EBB eventsMichael Ellerman2014-03-231-4/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The previous commit added constraint and register handling to allow processes using EBB (Event Based Branches) to request access to the BHRB (Branch History Rolling Buffer). With that in place we can allow processes using EBB to access the BHRB. This is achieved by setting BHRBA in MMCR0 when we enable EBB access. We must also clear BHRBA when we are disabling.

* powerpc/perf: Add BHRB constraint and IFM MMCRA handling for EBBMichael Ellerman2014-03-231-9/+44
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We want a way for users of EBB (Event Based Branches) to also access the BHRB (Branch History Rolling Buffer). EBB does not interoperate with our existing BHRB support, which is wired into the generic Linux branch stack sampling support. To support EBB & BHRB we add three new bits to the event code. The first bit indicates that the event wants access to the BHRB, and the other two bits indicate the desired IFM (Instruction Filtering Mode). We allow multiple events to request access to the BHRB, but they must agree on the IFM value. Events which are not interested in the BHRB can also interoperate with events which do. Finally we program the desired IFM value into MMCRA. Although we do this for every event, we know that the value will be identical for all events that request BHRB access.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | Although we already block EBB events which request sampling using sample_period, technically it's possible for an event to set sample_type but not sample_period. Nothing terrible will happen if an EBB event does specify sample_type, but it signals a major confusion on the part of userspace, and so we do them the favor of rejecting it.

* powerpc/perf: Configure BHRB filter before enabling PMU interruptsAnshuman Khandual2014-02-111-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Right now the config_bhrb() PMU specific call happens after write_mmcr0(), which actually enables the PMU for event counting and interrupts. So there is a small window of time where the PMU and BHRB runs without the required HW branch filter (if any) enabled in BHRB. This can cause some of the branch samples to be collected through BHRB without any filter applied and hence affects the correctness of the results. This patch moves the BHRB config function call before enabling interrupts. Here are some data points captured via trace prints which depicts how we could get PMU interrupts with BHRB filter NOT enabled with a standard perf record command line (asking for branch record information as well). $ perf record -j any_call ls Before the patch:- ls-1962 [003] d... 2065.299590: .perf_event_interrupt: MMCRA: 40000000000 ls-1962 [003] d... 2065.299603: .perf_event_interrupt: MMCRA: 40000000000 ...

* powerpc/perf: Fix handling of FAB eventsMichael Ellerman2013-10-031-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 4df4899 "Add power8 EBB support" included a bug in the handling of the FAB_CRESP_MATCH and FAB_TYPE_MATCH fields. These values are pulled out of the event code using EVENT_THR_CTL_SHIFT, however we were then or'ing that value directly into MMCR1. This meant we were failing to set the FAB fields correctly, and also potentially corrupting the value for PMC4SEL. Leading to no counts for the FAB events and incorrect counts for PMC4. The fix is simply to shift left the FAB value correctly before or'ing it with MMCR1.
