* powerpc/perf_event: Fix for power_pmu_disable()Matt Evans2010-07-081-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When power_pmu_disable() removes the given event from a particular index into cpuhw->event[], it shuffles down higher event[] entries. But, this array is paired with cpuhw->events[] and cpuhw->flags[] so should shuffle them similarly. If these arrays get out of sync, code such as power_check_constraints() will fail. This caused a bug where events were temporarily disabled and then failed to be re-enabled; subsequent code tried to write_pmc() with its (disabled) idx of 0, causing a message "oops trying to write PMC0". This triggers this bug on POWER7, running a miss-heavy test: perf record -e L1-dcache-load-misses -e L1-dcache-store-misses ./misstest Signed-off-by: Matt Evans <matt@ozlabs.org> Acked-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

* perf: Rework and fix the arch CPU-hotplug hooksPeter Zijlstra2010-03-101-1/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Remove the hw_perf_event_*() hotplug hooks in favour of per PMU hotplug notifiers. This has the advantage of reducing the static weak interface as well as exposing all hotplug actions to the PMU. Use this to fix x86 hotplug usage where we did things in ONLINE which should have been done in UP_PREPARE or STARTING.

* perf: Provide generic perf_sample_data initializationPeter Zijlstra2010-03-101-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This makes it easier to extend perf_sample_data and fixes a bug on arm and sparc, which failed to set ->raw to NULL, which can cause crashes when combined with PERF_SAMPLE_RAW. It also optimizes PowerPC and tracepoint, because the struct initialization is forced to zero out the whole structure.

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | The architecture defines that if MSR PR is set we are in problem state irrespective of the HV bit. This fixes perf events to reflect this.

* perf_event, powerpc: Fix compilation after big perf_counter renamePaul Mackerras2009-09-221-19/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes two places in the powerpc perf_event (perf_counter) code where 'list_entry' needs to be changed to 'group_entry', but were missed in commit 65abc865 ("perf_counter: Rename list_entry -> group_entry, counter_list -> group_list"). This also changes 'event' back to 'counter' in a couple of contexts: * Field and function names that deal with the limited-function counters: it's really the hardware counters whose function is limited, not the events that they count. Hence: MAX_LIMITED_HWEVENTS -> MAX_LIMITED_HWCOUNTERS limited_event -> limited_counter freeze/thaw_limited_events -> freeze/thaw_limited_counters * The machine-specific PMU description struct (struct power_pmu): this renames 'n_event' back to 'n_counter' since it really describes how many hardware counters the machine has. (Renaming this back avoids a compile error in each of the machine-specific PMU back-ends where they initialize their power_pmu struct.)

* perf: Do the big rename: Performance Counters -> Performance EventsIngo Molnar2009-09-211-0/+1315
Bye-bye Performance Counters, welcome Performance Events! In the past few months the perfcounters subsystem has grown out its initial role of counting hardware events, and has become (and is becoming) a much broader generic event enumeration, reporting, logging, monitoring, analysis facility. Naming its core object 'perf_counter' and naming the subsystem 'perfcounters' has become more and more of a misnomer. With pending code like hw-breakpoints support the 'counter' name is less and less appropriate. All in one, we've decided to rename the subsystem to 'performance events' and to propagate this rename through all fields, variables and API names. (in an ABI compatible fashion) The word 'event' is also a bit shorter than 'counter' - which makes it slightly more convenient to write/handle as well. Thanks goes to Stephane Eranian who first observed this misnomer and suggested a rename. User-space tooling and ABI compatibility is not affected - this patch should be function-invariant. (Also, defconfigs were not touched to keep the size down.) This patch has been generated via the following script: FILES=$(find * -type f | grep -vE 'oprofile|[^K]config') sed -i \ -e 's/PERF_EVENT_/PERF_RECORD_/g' \ -e 's/PERF_COUNTER/PERF_EVENT/g' \ -e 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g' \ -e 's/nb_counters/nb_events/g' \ -e 's/swcounter/swevent/g' \ -e 's/tpcounter_event/tp_event/g' \ $FILES for N in $(find . -name perf_counter.[ch]); do M=$(echo $N | sed 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g') mv $N $M done FILES=$(find . -name perf_event.*) sed -i \ -e 's/COUNTER_MASK/REG_MASK/g' \ -e 's/COUNTER/EVENT/g' \ -e 's/\<event\>/event_id/g' \ -e 's/counter/event/g' \ -e 's/Counter/Event/g' \ $FILES ... to keep it as correct as possible. This script can also be used by anyone who has pending perfcounters patches - it converts a Linux kernel tree over to the new naming. We tried to time this change to the point in time where the amount of pending patches is the smallest: the end of the merge window. Namespace clashes were fixed up in a preparatory patch - and some stylistic fallout will be fixed up in a subsequent patch. ( NOTE: 'counters' are still the proper terminology when we deal with hardware registers - and these sed scripts are a bit over-eager in renaming them. I've undone some of that, but in case there's something left where 'counter' would be better than 'event' we can undo that on an individual basis instead of touching an otherwise nicely automated patch. ) Suggested-by: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Acked-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Reviewed-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Cc: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Cc: Kyle McMartin <kyle@mcmartin.ca> Cc: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Cc: "David S.
