powerpc/perf/hv-24x7: Update domain value check

2023-10-10T19:43:38+00:00

[ Upstream commit 4ff3ba4db5943cac1045e3e4a3c0463ea10f6930 ] Valid domain value is in range 1 to HV_PERF_DOMAIN_MAX. Current code has check for domain value greater than or equal to HV_PERF_DOMAIN_MAX. But the check for domain value 0 is missing. Fix this issue by adding check for domain value 0.

powerpc/hv-gpci: Fix hv_gpci event list

2023-01-18T08:26:28+00:00

[ Upstream commit 03f7c1d2a49acd30e38789cd809d3300721e9b0e ] Based on getPerfCountInfo v1.018 documentation, some of the hv_gpci events were deprecated for platform firmware that supports counter_info_version 0x8 or above. Fix the hv_gpci event list by adding a new attribute group called "hv_gpci_event_attrs_v6" and a "ENABLE_EVENTS_COUNTERINFO_V6" macro to enable these events for platform firmware that supports counter_info_version 0x6 or below. And assigning the hv_gpci event list based on output counter info version of underlying plaform.

powerpc/perf: callchain validate kernel stack pointer bounds

2023-01-18T08:26:27+00:00

[ Upstream commit 32c5209214bd8d4f8c4e9d9b630ef4c671f58e79 ] The interrupt frame detection and loads from the hypothetical pt_regs are not bounds-checked. The next-frame validation only bounds-checks STACK_FRAME_OVERHEAD, which does not include the pt_regs. Add another test for this. The user could set r1 to be equal to the address matching the first interrupt frame - STACK_INT_FRAME_SIZE, which is in the previous page due to the kernel redzone, and induce the kernel to load the marker from there. Possibly this could cause a crash at least. If the user could induce the previous page to contain a valid marker, then it might be able to direct perf to read specific memory addresses in a way that could be transmitted back to the user in the perf data.

powerpc/perf: Fix the threshold compare group constraint for power9

2022-06-14T14:53:51+00:00

[ Upstream commit ab0cc6bbf0c812731c703ec757fcc3fc3a457a34 ] Thresh compare bits for a event is used to program thresh compare field in Monitor Mode Control Register A (MMCRA: 9-18 bits for power9). When scheduling events as a group, all events in that group should match value in threshold bits (like thresh compare, thresh control, thresh select). Otherwise event open for the sibling events should fail. But in the current code, incase thresh compare bits are not valid, we are not failing in group_constraint function which can result in invalid group schduling. Fix the issue by returning -1 incase event is threshold and threshold compare value is not valid. Thresh control bits in the event code is used to program thresh_ctl field in Monitor Mode Control Register A (MMCRA: 48-55). In below example, the scheduling of group events PM_MRK_INST_CMPL (873534401e0) and PM_THRESH_MET (8734340101ec) is expected to fail as both event request different thresh control bits and invalid thresh compare value.

powerpc/perf: Fix power9 event alternatives

2022-04-27T11:15:30+00:00

[ Upstream commit 0dcad700bb2776e3886fe0a645a4bf13b1e747cd ] When scheduling a group of events, there are constraint checks done to make sure all events can go in a group. Example, one of the criteria is that events in a group cannot use the same PMC. But platform specific PMU supports alternative event for some of the event codes. During perf_event_open(), if any event group doesn't match constraint check criteria, further lookup is done to find alternative event. By current design, the array of alternatives events in PMU code is expected to be sorted by column 0. This is because in find_alternative() the return criteria is based on event code comparison. ie. "event < ev_alt[i][0])". This optimisation is there since find_alternative() can be called multiple times. In power9 PMU code, the alternative event array is not sorted properly and hence there is breakage in finding alternative events. To work with existing logic, fix the alternative event array to be sorted by column 0 for power9-pmu.c Results: With alternative events, multiplexing can be avoided. That is, for example, in power9 PM_LD_MISS_L1 (0x3e054) has alternative event, PM_LD_MISS_L1_ALT (0x400f0). This is an identical event which can be programmed in a different PMC.

powerpc/perf/hv-gpci: Fix counter value parsing

2021-09-22T09:45:24+00:00

commit f9addd85fbfacf0d155e83dbee8696d6df5ed0c7 upstream. H_GetPerformanceCounterInfo (0xF080) hcall returns the counter data in the result buffer. Result buffer has specific format defined in the PAPR specification. One of the fields is counter offset and width of the counter data returned. Counter data are returned in a unsigned char array in big endian byte order. To get the final counter data, the values must be left shifted byte at a time. But commit 220a0c609ad17 ("powerpc/perf: Add support for the hv gpci (get performance counter info) interface") made the shifting bitwise and also assumed little endian order. Because of that, hcall counters values are reported incorrectly. In particular this can lead to counters go backwards which messes up the counter prev vs now calculation and leads to huge counter value reporting: #: perf stat -e hv_gpci/system_tlbie_count_and_time_tlbie_instructions_issued/ -C 0 -I 1000 time counts unit events 1.000078854 18,446,744,073,709,535,232 hv_gpci/system_tlbie_count_and_time_tlbie_instructions_issued/ 2.000213293 0 hv_gpci/system_tlbie_count_and_time_tlbie_instructions_issued/ 3.000320107 0 hv_gpci/system_tlbie_count_and_time_tlbie_instructions_issued/ 4.000428392 0 hv_gpci/system_tlbie_count_and_time_tlbie_instructions_issued/ 5.000537864 0 hv_gpci/system_tlbie_count_and_time_tlbie_instructions_issued/ 6.000649087 0 hv_gpci/system_tlbie_count_and_time_tlbie_instructions_issued/ 7.000760312 0 hv_gpci/system_tlbie_count_and_time_tlbie_instructions_issued/ 8.000865218 16,448 hv_gpci/system_tlbie_count_and_time_tlbie_instructions_issued/ 9.000978985 18,446,744,073,709,535,232 hv_gpci/system_tlbie_count_and_time_tlbie_instructions_issued/ 10.001088891 16,384 hv_gpci/system_tlbie_count_and_time_tlbie_instructions_issued/ 11.001201435 0 hv_gpci/system_tlbie_count_and_time_tlbie_instructions_issued/ 12.001307937 18,446,744,073,709,535,232 hv_gpci/system_tlbie_count_and_time_tlbie_instructions_issued/ Fix the shifting logic to correct match the format, ie. read bytes in big endian order.

powerpc/perf: Fix PMU constraint check for EBB events

2021-05-22T08:57:32+00:00

[ Upstream commit 10f8f96179ecc7f69c927f6d231f6d02736cea83 ] The power PMU group constraints includes check for EBB events to make sure all events in a group must agree on EBB. This will prevent scheduling EBB and non-EBB events together. But in the existing check, settings for constraint mask and value is interchanged. Patch fixes the same. Before the patch, PMU selftest "cpu_event_pinned_vs_ebb_test" fails with below in dmesg logs. This happens because EBB event gets enabled along with a non-EBB cpu event.

powerpc/perf: Record counter overflow always if SAMPLE_IP is unset

2021-03-17T15:34:30+00:00

[ Upstream commit d137845c973147a22622cc76c7b0bc16f6206323 ] While sampling for marked events, currently we record the sample only if the SIAR valid bit of Sampled Instruction Event Register (SIER) is set. SIAR_VALID bit is used for fetching the instruction address from Sampled Instruction Address Register(SIAR). But there are some usecases, where the user is interested only in the PMU stats at each counter overflow and the exact IP of the overflow event is not required. Dropping SIAR invalid samples will fail to record some of the counter overflows in such cases. Example of such usecase is dumping the PMU stats (event counts) after some regular amount of instructions/events from the userspace (ex: via ptrace). Here counter overflow is indicated to userspace via signal handler, and captured by monitoring and enabling I/O signaling on the event file descriptor. In these cases, we expect to get sample/overflow indication after each specified sample_period. Perf event attribute will not have PERF_SAMPLE_IP set in the sample_type if exact IP of the overflow event is not requested. So while profiling if SAMPLE_IP is not set, just record the counter overflow irrespective of SIAR_VALID check.

powerpc/perf: Exclude kernel samples while counting events in user space.

commit aa8e21c053d72b6639ea5a7f1d3a1d0209534c94 upstream. Perf event attritube supports exclude_kernel flag to avoid sampling/profiling in supervisor state (kernel). Based on this event attr flag, Monitor Mode Control Register bit is set to freeze on supervisor state. But sometimes (due to hardware limitation), Sampled Instruction Address Register (SIAR) locks on to kernel address even when freeze on supervisor is set.
