| * | | | powerpc/perf: Fix sampling enable for PPC970Paul Mackerras2010-09-231-0/+2

The result is that instruction sampling didn't get enabled in the PMU for some marked instruction events, so they would never trigger. This fixes it by adding the appropriate break statements in the switch statement.

This restores those files. To do this, we now have a hook that the cpu accounting code will call as it processes each entry from the hypervisor dispatch trace log. The code in dtl.c now uses that to fill up its ring buffer, rather than having the hypervisor fill the ring buffer directly. This also fixes dtl_file_read() to handle overflow conditions a bit better and adds a spinlock to ensure that race conditions (multiple processes opening or reading the file concurrently) are handled correctly.

| * | | | powerpc: Account time using timebase rather than PURRPaul Mackerras2010-09-025-150/+150
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, when CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is enabled, we use the PURR register for measuring the user and system time used by processes, as well as other related times such as hardirq and softirq times. This turns out to be quite confusing for users because it means that a program will often be measured as taking less time when run on a multi-threaded processor (SMT2 or SMT4 mode) than it does when run on a single-threaded processor (ST mode), even though the program takes longer to finish. The discrepancy is accounted for as stolen time, which is also confusing, particularly when there are no other partitions running. This changes the accounting to use the timebase instead, meaning that the reported user and system times are the actual number of real-time seconds that the program was executing on the processor thread, regardless of which SMT mode the processor is in. Thus a program will generally show greater user and system times when run on a multi-threaded processor than on a single-threaded processor. On pSeries systems on POWER5 or later processors, we measure the stolen time (time when this partition wasn't running) using the hypervisor dispatch trace log. We check for new entries in the log on every entry from user mode and on every transition from kernel process context to soft or hard IRQ context (i.e. when account_system_vtime() gets called). So that we can correctly distinguish time stolen from user time and time stolen from system time, without having to check the log on every exit to user mode, we store separate timestamps for exit to user mode and entry from user mode. On systems that have a SPURR (POWER6 and POWER7), we read the SPURR in account_system_vtime() (as before), and then apportion the SPURR ticks since the last time we read it between scaled user time and scaled system time according to the relative proportions of user time and system time over the same interval. This avoids having to read the SPURR on every kernel entry and exit. On systems that have PURR but not SPURR (i.e., POWER5), we do the same using the PURR rather than the SPURR. This disables the DTL user interface in /sys/debug/kernel/powerpc/dtl for now since it conflicts with the use of the dispatch trace log by the time accounting code.

| * | | | powerpc: Dynamically allocate most lppaca structsPaul Mackerras2010-09-021-2/+68

If we don't include support for legacy iSeries, only the first lppaca is statically allocated; the rest are dynamically allocated. If we include legacy iSeries support, then we statically allocate the first 64 lppaca structs, since the iSeries hypervisor requires that the lppaca structs be present in the data section of the kernel image, but legacy iSeries supports at most 64 cpus. With CONFIG_NR_CPUS, the kernel image size for a typical pSeries config went from: text data bss dec hex filename 9524478 4734564 8469944 22728986 15ad11a ../test-1024/vmlinux to: text data bss dec hex filename 9524482 3751508 8469944 21745934 14bd10e ../test-1024/vmlinux a reduction of 983052 bytes overall.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently we have the lppaca structs as a simple array of NR_CPUS entries, taking up space in the data section of the kernel image. In future we would like to allocate them dynamically, so this abstracts out the accesses to the array, making it easier to change how we locate the lppaca for a given cpu in future. Specifically, lppaca[cpu] changes to lppaca_of(cpu). Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

This means it is possible for an an exception handler to execute a larx, get a reservation, decide not to do the stcx and then return back with an active reservation. If the interrupted code was in the middle of a larx/stcx sequence the stcx could incorrectly succeed. All recent POWER CPUs check the address before letting the stcx succeed so we can create a CPU feature and nop it out. As Ben suggested, we can only do this in our syscall path because there is a remote possibility some kernel code gets interrupted by an exception that ends up operating on the same cacheline. Thanks to Paul Mackerras and Derek Williams for the idea. To test this I used a very simple null syscall (actually getppid) testcase at http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/null_syscall.c I tested against 2.6.35-git10 with the following changes against the pseries_defconfig: CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING=n CONFIG_AUDIT=n CONFIG_PPC_4K_PAGES=n CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES=y CONFIG_FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER=9 CONFIG_PPC_SUBPAGE_PROT=n CONFIG_FUNCTION_TRACER=n CONFIG_FUNCTION_GRAPH_TRACER=n CONFIG_IRQSOFF_TRACER=n CONFIG_STACK_TRACER=n to remove the overhead of virtual CPU accounting, syscall auditing and the ftrace mcount tracers. 64kB pages were enabled to minimise TLB misses. POWER6: +8.2% POWER7: +7.0% Another suggestion was to use a larx to something in the L1 instead of a stcx. This was almost as fast as removing the larx on POWER6, but only 3.5% faster on POWER7. We can use this to speed up the reservation clear in our exception exit code. Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

| * | | | | memblock: Introduce default allocation limit and use it to replace explicit onesBenjamin Herrenschmidt2010-08-052-2/+20

The old MEMBLOCK_ALLOC_ANYWHERE changes value from 0 to ~(u64)0 and can still be used with memblock_alloc_base() to allocate really anywhere. It is -no-longer- cropped to MEMBLOCK_REAL_LIMIT which disappears. Note to archs: I'm leaving the default limit to MEMBLOCK_ALLOC_ANYWHERE. I strongly recommend that you ensure that you set an appropriate limit during boot in order to guarantee that an memblock_alloc() at any time results in something that is accessible with a simple __va(). The reason is that a subsequent patch will introduce the ability for the array to resize itself by reallocating itself. The MEMBLOCK core will honor the current limit when performing those allocations. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

This is quite confusing. There should be one set of names expected of the arch, and this should be wrapped to give another set of names that are expected by users of this facility.

* | | | | | perf, powerpc: Fix power_pmu_event_init to not use event->ctxPaul Mackerras2010-10-191-1/+1

Unfortunately, power_pmu_event_init uses event->ctx->task to see whether the new event is a per-task event or a system-wide event, and thus crashes since event->ctx is NULL at the point where power_pmu_event_init gets called. (The reason it needs to know whether it is a per-task event is because there are some hardware events on Power systems which only count when the processor is not idle, and there are some fixed-function counters which count such events. For example, the "run cycles" event counts cycles when the processor is not idle. If the user asks to count cycles, we can use "run cycles" if this is a per-task event, since the processor is running when the task is running, by definition. We can't use "run cycles" if the user asks for "cycles" on a system-wide counter.) Fortunately the information we need is in the event->attach_state field, so we just use that instead.

It is most useful for NMI code that needs to interact with the rest of the system -- like wakeup a task to drain buffers. Perf currently has such a mechanism, so extract that and provide it as a generic feature, independent of perf so that others may also benefit. The IRQ context callback is generated through self-IPIs where possible, or on architectures like powerpc the decrementer (the built-in timer facility) is set to generate an interrupt immediately. Architectures that don't have anything like this get to do with a callback from the timer tick. These architectures can call irq_work_run() at the tail of any IRQ handlers that might enqueue such work (like the perf IRQ handler) to avoid undue latencies in processing the work.

However, that whole conversion totally missed the rather obscure code that adds a new module to the list for BUG() handling. That code was doubly obscure because (a) the code itself lives in lib/bugs.c (for dubious reasons) and (b) it gets called from the architecture-specific "module_finalize()" rather than from generic code. Calling it from arch-specific code makes no sense what-so-ever to begin with, and is now actively wrong since that code isn't protected by the module loading lock any more. So this commit moves the "module_bug_{finalize,cleanup}()" calls away from the arch-specific code, and into the generic code - and in the process protects it with the module_mutex so that the list operations are now safe. Future fixups: - move the module list handling code into kernel/module.c where it belongs. - get rid of 'module_bug_list' and just use the regular list of modules (called 'modules' - imagine that) that we already create and maintain for other reasons.

Unfortunately, this stack pointer can't be used when translation is off on PHYP as this stack pointer might be outside the RMO. This results in the following on all non zero cpus: cpu 0x1: Vector: 300 (Data Access) at [c00000001639fd10] pc: 000000000001c50c lr: 000000000000821c sp: c00000001639ff90 msr: 8000000000001000 dar: c00000001639ffa0 dsisr: 42000000 current = 0xc000000016393540 paca = 0xc000000006e00200 pid = 0, comm = swapper The original patch was only tested on bare metal system, so it never caught this problem.

Unfortunately this moved it after the code that checks whether it is time for the next decrementer clock event. The result is that the call to perf_event_do_pending() won't happen until the next decrementer clock event is due. This was pointed out by Milton Miller. This fixes it by moving the check for whether it's time for the next decrementer clock event down to the point where we're about to call the event handler, after we've called perf_event_do_pending. This has the side effect that on old pre-Core99 Powermacs where we use the ppc_n_lost_interrupts mechanism to replay interrupts, a replayed interrupt will incur a little more latency since it will now do the code from the irq_enter down to the irq_exit, that it used to skip. However, these machines are now old and rare enough that this doesn't matter. To make it clear that ppc_n_lost_interrupts is only used on Powermacs, and to speed up the code slightly on non-Powermac ppc32 machines, the code that tests ppc_n_lost_interrupts is now conditional on CONFIG_PMAC as well as CONFIG_PPC32.

The new interface extends the capability to stop a counter while keeping it scheduled on the PMU. We replace the throttled state with the generic stopped state. This also allows us to efficiently stop/start counters over certain code paths (like IRQ handlers). It also allows scheduling a counter without it starting, allowing for a generic frozen state (useful for rotating stopped counters). The stopped state is implemented in two different ways, depending on how the architecture implemented the throttled state: 1) We disable the counter: a) the pmu has per-counter enable bits, we flip that b) we program a NOP event, preserving the counter state 2) We store the counter state and ignore all read/overflow events Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: paulus <paulus@samba.org> Cc: stephane eranian <eranian@googlemail.com> Cc: Robert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com> Cc: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com> Cc: Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Cyrill Gorcunov <gorcunov@gmail.com> Cc: Lin Ming <ming.m.lin@intel.com> Cc: Yanmin <yanmin_zhang@linux.intel.com> Cc: Deng-Cheng Zhu <dengcheng.zhu@gmail.com> Cc: David Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Cc: Michael Cree <mcree@orcon.net.nz> LKML-Reference: <new-submission> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

Failing to do so means stack access requires an SLB miss exception to refill an entry dynamically, if the stack isn't accessible via SLB(0) (kernel text & static data). It's not always allowable to take such a miss, and intermittent crashes will result. Primary CPUs don't have this issue; an SLB entry is not bolted for their stack anyway (as that lives within SLB(0)). This patch therefore only affects the init of secondaries.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | list_for_each_entry binds its first argument to a non-null value, and thus any null test on the value of that argument is superfluous. The semantic patch that makes this change is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @@ iterator I; expression x,E,E1,E2; statement S,S1,S2; @@ I(x,...) { <... - if (x != NULL || ...) S ...> } // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
| * | powerpc/kdump: Stop all other CPUs before running crash handlersAnton Blanchard2010-08-241-11/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | During kdump we run the crash handlers first then stop all other CPUs. We really want to stop all CPUs as close to the fail as possible and also have a very controlled environment for running the crash handlers, so it makes sense to reverse the order.
