2011-08-31ARM: perf: move platform device to struct arm_pmuMark Rutland
Currently the ARM perf code supports having a single struct platform_device to supply IRQ numbers, limiting it to supporting a single PMU. This patch makes a platform_device instance variable on struct arm_pmu. This should allow for multiple PMUs to be supported in future.

2011-08-31ARM: perf: clean up event group validationMark Rutland
Currently, event group validation compares each event's 'pmu' pointer against the static 'pmu' pointer. This limits the code to supporting only 1 PMU. This patch changes the behaviour to consider an event's group leader's 'pmu' pointer as canonical for validation. This should ease later generalisation of the code to support multiple PMUs at once.

2011-08-31ARM: perf: only register a CPU PMU when presentMark Rutland
Currently, an "empty" struct pmu is registered as the CPU PMU, regardless of whether there is a physical PMU. This burdens the accessor functions with checks to see whether a PMU is actually present. This patch changes initialisation to register a PMU only if there is a supported PMU present, and removes the checks that this change makes redundant.

2011-08-31ARM: perf: use cpumask_t to record active IRQsWill Deacon
Commit 5dfc54e0 ("ARM: GIC: avoid routing interrupts to offline CPUs") prevents the GIC from setting the affinity of an IRQ to a CPU with id >= nr_cpu_ids. This was previously abused by perf on some platforms where more IRQs were registered than possible CPUs. This patch fixes the problem by using a cpumask_t to keep track of the active (requested) interrupts in perf. The same effect could be achieved by limiting the number of IRQs to the number of CPUs, but using a mask instead will be useful for adding extended CPU hotplug support in the future.

2011-08-31ARM: PMU: move CPU PMU platform device handling and init into perfWill Deacon
Once upon a time, OProfile and Perf fought hard over who could play with the PMU. To stop all hell from breaking loose, pmu.c offered an internal reserve/release API and took care of parsing PMU platform data passed in from board support code. Now that Perf has ingested OProfile, let's move the platform device handling into the Perf driver and out of the PMU locking code. Unfortunately, the lock has to remain to prevent Perf being bitten by out-of-tree modules such as LTTng, which still claim a right to the PMU when Perf isn't looking.

2011-06-29ARM: 6974/1: pmu: refactor reservationMark Rutland
Currently, PMU platform_device reservation relies on some minor abuse of the platform_device::id field for determining the type of PMU. This is problematic for device tree based probing, where the ID cannot be controlled. This patch removes reliance on the id field, and depends on each PMU's platform driver to figure out which type it is. As all PMUs handled by the current platform_driver name "arm-pmu" are CPU PMUs, this convention is hardcoded. New PMU types can be supported through the use of {of,platform}_device_id tables Signed-off-by: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> Acked-by: Jamie Iles <jamie@jamieiles.com> Acked-by: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com> Cc: Rob Herring <rob.herring@calxeda.com> Cc: Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

When initialising a PMU, there is a check to protect against races with other CPUs filling all of the available event slots. Since armpmu_add checks that an event can be scheduled, we do not need to do this at initialisation time. Furthermore the current code is broken because it assumes that atomic_inc_not_zero will unconditionally increment active_counts and then tries to decrement it again on failure.

If a counter overflows during a perf stat profiling run it may overtake the last known value of the counter: 0 prev new 0xffffffff |----------|-------|----------------------| In this case, the number of events that have occurred is (0xffffffff - prev) + new. Unfortunately, the event update code will not realise an overflow has occurred and will instead report the event delta as (new - prev) which may be considerably smaller than the real count. This patch adds an extra argument to armpmu_event_update which indicates whether or not an overflow has occurred. If an overflow has occurred then we use the maximum period of the counter to calculate the elapsed events.

2010-10-18irq_work: Add generic hardirq context callbacksPeter Zijlstra
Provide a mechanism that allows running code in IRQ context. 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.

Replace pmu::{enable,disable,start,stop,unthrottle} with pmu::{add,del,start,stop}, all of which take a flags argument. 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>

2010-09-09perf: Reduce perf_disable() usagePeter Zijlstra
Since the current perf_disable() usage is only an optimization, remove it for now. This eases the removal of the __weak hw_perf_enable() interface.

2010-09-02ARM: 6352/1: perf: fix event validationWill Deacon
The validate_event function in the ARM perf events backend has the following problems: 1.) Events that are disabled count towards the cost. 2.) Events associated with other PMUs [for example, software events or breakpoints] do not count towards the cost, but do fail validation, causing the group to fail. This patch changes validate_event so that it ignores events in the PERF_EVENT_STATE_OFF state or that are scheduled for other PMUs.

2010-09-01ARM: 6330/1: perf: reword comments relating to perf_event_do_pendingWill Deacon
This is purely a cosmetic change to the ARM perf backend because the current comments about the relationship between NMIs, interrupt context and perf_event_do_pending are misleading. This patch updates the comments so that they reflect what the code actually does (which is in line with other architectures).
