Add support for Intel Processor Trace (PT) to kernel's perf events.
PT is an extension of Intel Architecture that collects information about
software execuction such as control flow, execution modes and timings and
formats it into highly compressed binary packets. Even being compressed,
these packets are generated at hundreds of megabytes per second per core,
which makes it impractical to decode them on the fly in the kernel.
This driver exports trace data by through AUX space in the perf ring
buffer, which is zero-copy mapped into userspace for faster data retrieval.

Intel PT cannot be used at the same time as LBR or BTS and will cause a
general protection fault if they are used together. In order to avoid
fixing up GPs in the fast path, instead we disallow creating LBR/BTS
events when PT events are present and vice versa.

For supporting Intel LBR branches filtering, Intel LBR sharing logic
mechanism is introduced from commit b36817e886 ("perf/x86: Add Intel
LBR sharing logic"). It modifies __intel_shared_reg_get_constraints() to
config lbr_sel, which is finally used to set LBR_SELECT.
However, the intel_shared_regs_constraints() function is called after
intel_pebs_constraints(). The PEBS event will return immediately after
intel_pebs_constraints(). So it's impossible to filter branches for PEBS
events.
This patch moves intel_shared_regs_constraints() ahead of
intel_pebs_constraints().
We can safely do that because the intel_shared_regs_constraints() function
only returns empty constraint if its rejecting the event, otherwise it
returns NULL such that we continue calling intel_pebs_constraints() and
x86_get_event_constraint().

On Broadwell INST_RETIRED.ALL cannot be used with any period
that doesn't have the lowest 6 bits cleared. And the period
should not be smaller than 128.
This is erratum BDM11 and BDM55:
http://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/specification-updates/5th-gen-core-family-spec-update.pdf
BDM11: When using a period < 100; we may get incorrect PEBS/PMI
interrupts and/or an invalid counter state.
BDM55: When bit0-5 of the period are !0 we may get redundant PEBS
records on overflow.
Add a new callback to enforce this, and set it for Broadwell.
How does this handle the case when an app requests a specific
period with some of the bottom bits set?
Short answer:
Any useful instruction sampling period needs to be 4-6 orders
of magnitude larger than 128, as an PMI every 128 instructions
would instantly overwhelm the system and be throttled.
So the +-64 error from this is really small compared to the
period, much smaller than normal system jitter.
Long answer (by Peterz):
IFF we guarantee perf_event_attr::sample_period >= 128.
Suppose we start out with sample_period=192; then we'll set period_left
to 192, we'll end up with left = 128 (we truncate the lower bits). We
get an interrupt, find that period_left = 64 (>0 so we return 0 and
don't get an overflow handler), up that to 128. Then we trigger again,
at n=256. Then we find period_left = -64 (<=0 so we return 1 and do get
an overflow). We increment with sample_period so we get left = 128. We
fire again, at n=384, period_left = 0 (<=0 so we return 1 and get an
overflow). And on and on.
So while the individual interrupts are 'wrong' we get then with
interval=256,128 in exactly the right ratio to average out at 192. And
this works for everything >=128.
So the num_samples*fixed_period thing is still entirely correct +- 127,
which is good enough I'd say, as you already have that error anyhow.
So no need to 'fix' the tools, al we need to do is refuse to create
INST_RETIRED:ALL events with sample_period < 128.

Add Broadwell support for Broadwell to perf.
The basic support is very similar to Haswell. We use the new cache
event list added for Haswell earlier. The only differences
are a few bits related to remote nodes. To avoid an extra,
mostly identical, table these are patched up in the initialization code.
The constraint list has one new event that needs to be handled over Haswell.
Includes code and testing from Kan Liang.

Haswell offcore events are quite different from Sandy Bridge.
Add a new table to handle Haswell properly.
Note that the offcore bits listed in the SDM are not quite correct
(this is currently being fixed). An uptodate list of bits is
in the patch.
The basic setup is similar to Sandy Bridge. The prefetch columns
have been removed, as prefetch counting is not very reliable
on Haswell. One L1 event that is not in the event list anymore
has been also removed.
- data reads do not include code reads (comparable to earlier Sandy Bridge tables)
- data counts include speculative execution (except L1 write, dtlb, bpu)
- remote node access includes both remote memory, remote cache, remote mmio.
- prefetches are not included in the counts for consistency
(different from Sandy Bridge, which includes prefetches in the remote node)

Haswell has a new feature that utilizes the existing LBR facility to
record call chains. To enable this feature, bits (JCC, NEAR_IND_JMP,
NEAR_REL_JMP, FAR_BRANCH, EN_CALLSTACK) in LBR_SELECT must be set to 1,
bits (NEAR_REL_CALL, NEAR-IND_CALL, NEAR_RET) must be cleared. Due to
a hardware bug of Haswell, this feature doesn't work well with
FREEZE_LBRS_ON_PMI.
When the call stack feature is enabled, the LBR stack will capture
unfiltered call data normally, but as return instructions are executed,
the last captured branch record is flushed from the on-chip registers
in a last-in first-out (LIFO) manner. Thus, branch information relative
to leaf functions will not be captured, while preserving the call stack
information of the main line execution path.
This patch defines a separate lbr_sel map for Haswell. The map contains
a new entry for the call stack feature.

Previous commit introduces context switch callback, its function
overlaps with the flush branch stack callback. So we can use the
context switch callback to flush LBR stack.
This patch adds code that uses the flush branch callback to
flush the LBR stack when task is being scheduled in. The callback
is enabled only when there are events use the LBR hardware. This
patch also removes all old flush branch stack code.

Peter Zijlstra has attempted to help out, to clean up the mess:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/10/28/543
But has not received helpful and constructive replies which makes
me doubt wether it can all be finished in time until v3.18 is
released.
Despite various review feedback the author (Andi Kleen) has answered
only few of the review questions and has generally been uncooperative,
only giving replies when prompted repeatedly, and only giving minimal
answers instead of constructively explaining and helping along the effort.
That kind of behavior is not acceptable.
There's also a boot crash on Intel E5-1630 v3 CPUs reported for another
commit from Andi Kleen:
e735b9db12 ("perf/x86/intel/uncore: Add Haswell-EP uncore support")
https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/10/22/730
Which is not yet resolved. The uncore driver is independent in theory,
but the crash makes me worry about how well all these patches were
tested and makes me uneasy about the level of interminging that the
Broadwell and Haswell code has received by the commits above.
As a first step to resolve the mess revert the Broadwell client commits
back to the v3.17 version, before we run out of time and problematic
code hits a stable upstream kernel.
( If the Haswell-EP crash is not resolved via a simple fix then we'll have
to revert the Haswell-EP uncore driver as well. )
The Broadwell client series has to be submitted in a clean fashion, with
single, well documented changes per patch. If they are submitted in time
and are accepted during review then they can possibly go into v3.19 but
will need additional scrutiny due to the rocky history of this patch set.

Pull percpu consistent-ops changes from Tejun Heo:
"Way back, before the current percpu allocator was implemented, static
and dynamic percpu memory areas were allocated and handled separately
and had their own accessors. The distinction has been gone for many
years now; however, the now duplicate two sets of accessors remained
with the pointer based ones - this_cpu_*() - evolving various other
operations over time. During the process, we also accumulated other
inconsistent operations.
This pull request contains Christoph's patches to clean up the
duplicate accessor situation. __get_cpu_var() uses are replaced with
with this_cpu_ptr() and __this_cpu_ptr() with raw_cpu_ptr().
Unfortunately, the former sometimes is tricky thanks to C being a bit
messy with the distinction between lvalues and pointers, which led to
a rather ugly solution for cpumask_var_t involving the introduction of
this_cpu_cpumask_var_ptr().
This converts most of the uses but not all. Christoph will follow up
with the remaining conversions in this merge window and hopefully
remove the obsolete accessors"

Use the newly added Broadwell cache event list for Haswell too.
All Haswell and Broadwell events and offcore masks used in these lists
are identical.
However Haswell is very different from the Sandy Bridge
list that was used previously. That fixes a wide range of mis-counting
cache events.
The node events are now only for retired memory events, so prefetching
and speculative memory accesses are not included. They are PEBS
capable now, which makes it much easier to sample for them, plus it's
possible to create address maps with -d.
The prefetch events are gone now. They way the hardware counts
them is very misleading (some prefetches included, others not), so
it seemed best to leave them out.

__get_cpu_var() is used for multiple purposes in the kernel source. One of
them is address calculation via the form &__get_cpu_var(x). This calculates
the address for the instance of the percpu variable of the current processor
based on an offset.
Other use cases are for storing and retrieving data from the current
processors percpu area. __get_cpu_var() can be used as an lvalue when
writing data or on the right side of an assignment.
__get_cpu_var() is defined as :
#define __get_cpu_var(var) (*this_cpu_ptr(&(var)))
__get_cpu_var() always only does an address determination. However, store
and retrieve operations could use a segment prefix (or global register on
other platforms) to avoid the address calculation.
this_cpu_write() and this_cpu_read() can directly take an offset into a
percpu area and use optimized assembly code to read and write per cpu
variables.
This patch converts __get_cpu_var into either an explicit address
calculation using this_cpu_ptr() or into a use of this_cpu operations that
use the offset. Thereby address calculations are avoided and less registers
are used when code is generated.
Transformations done to __get_cpu_var()
1. Determine the address of the percpu instance of the current processor.
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
int *x = &__get_cpu_var(y);
Converts to
int *x = this_cpu_ptr(&y);
2. Same as #1 but this time an array structure is involved.
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y[20]);
int *x = __get_cpu_var(y);
Converts to
int *x = this_cpu_ptr(y);
3. Retrieve the content of the current processors instance of a per cpu
variable.
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
int x = __get_cpu_var(y)
Converts to
int x = __this_cpu_read(y);
4. Retrieve the content of a percpu struct
DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct mystruct, y);
struct mystruct x = __get_cpu_var(y);
Converts to
memcpy(&x, this_cpu_ptr(&y), sizeof(x));
5. Assignment to a per cpu variable
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y)
__get_cpu_var(y) = x;
Converts to
__this_cpu_write(y, x);
6. Increment/Decrement etc of a per cpu variable
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
__get_cpu_var(y)++
Converts to
__this_cpu_inc(y)

HSW-EP has a larger offcore mask than the client Haswell CPUs.
It is the same mask as on Sandy/IvyBridge-EP. All of
Haswell was using the client mask, so some bits were missing.
On the client parts some bits were also missing compared
to Sandy/IvyBridge, in particular the bits to match on a L4
cache hit.
The Haswell core in both client and server incarnations
accepts the same bits (but some are nops), so we can use
the same mask.
So use the snbep extended mask, which is a superset of the
client and the server, for all of Haswell.
This allows specifying a number of extra offcore events, like
for example for HSW-EP.
% perf stat -e cpu/event=0xb7,umask=0x1,offcore_rsp=0x3fffc00100,name=offcore_response_pf_l3_rfo_l3_miss_any_response/ true

With -cpu host, KVM reports LBR and extra_regs support, if the host has

When the guest perf driver tries to access LBR or extra_regs MSR,

Currently, any NMI is falsely handled by a NMI handler of NMI watchdog
if CondChgd bit in MSR_CORE_PERF_GLOBAL_STATUS MSR is set.
For example, we use external NMI to make system panic to get crash
dump, but in this case, the external NMI is falsely handled do to the
issue.
This commit deals with the issue simply by ignoring CondChgd bit.
Here is explanation in detail.
On x86 NMI watchdog uses performance monitoring feature to
periodically signal NMI each time performance counter gets overflowed.
intel_pmu_handle_irq() is called as a NMI_LOCAL handler from a NMI
handler of NMI watchdog, perf_event_nmi_handler(). It identifies an
owner of a given NMI by looking at overflow status bits in
MSR_CORE_PERF_GLOBAL_STATUS MSR. If some of the bits are set, then it
handles the given NMI as its own NMI.
The problem is that the intel_pmu_handle_irq() doesn't distinguish
CondChgd bit from other bits. Unlike the other status bits, CondChgd
bit doesn't represent overflow status for performance counters. Thus,
CondChgd bit cannot be thought of as a mark indicating a given NMI is
NMI watchdog's.
As a result, if CondChgd bit is set, any NMI is falsely handled by the
NMI handler of NMI watchdog. Also, if type of the falsely handled NMI
is either NMI_UNKNOWN, NMI_SERR or NMI_IO_CHECK, the corresponding
action is never performed until CondChgd bit is cleared.
I noticed this behavior on systems with Ivy Bridge processors: Intel
Xeon CPU E5-2630 v2 and Intel Xeon CPU E7-8890 v2. On both systems,
CondChgd bit in MSR_CORE_PERF_GLOBAL_STATUS MSR has already been set
in the beginning at boot. Then the CondChgd bit is immediately cleared
by next wrmsr to MSR_CORE_PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL MSR and appears to remain
0.
On the other hand, on older processors such as Nehalem, Xeon E7540,
CondChgd bit is not set in the beginning at boot.
I'm not sure about exact behavior of CondChgd bit, in particular when
this bit is set. Although I read Intel System Programmer's Manual to
figure out that, the descriptions I found are:
In 18.9.1:
"The MSR_PERF_GLOBAL_STATUS MSR also provides a ¡sticky bit¢ to
indicate changes to the state of performancmonitoring hardware"
In Table 35-2 IA-32 Architectural MSRs
63 CondChg: status bits of this register has changed.
These are different from the bahviour I see on the actual system as I
explained above.
At least, I think ignoring CondChgd bit should be enough for NMI
watchdog perspective.

Add TSX event aliases, and export them from the kernel to perf.
These are used by perf stat -T and to allow
more user friendly access to events. The events are designed to
be fairly generic and may also apply to other architectures
implementing HTM. They all cover common situations that
happens during tuning of transactional code.
For Haswell we have to separate the HLE and RTM events,
as they are separate in the PMU.
This adds the following events:
tx-start Count start transaction (used by perf stat -T)
tx-commit Count commit of transaction
tx-abort Count all aborts
tx-conflict Count aborts due to conflict with another CPU.
tx-capacity Count capacity aborts (transaction too large)
Then matching el-* events for HLE
cycles-t Transactional cycles (used by perf stat -T)
* also exists on POWER8
cycles-ct Transactional cycles commited (used by perf stat -T)
* according to Michael Ellerman POWER8 has a cycles-transactional-committed,
* perf stat -T handles both cases
Note for useful abort profiling often precise has to be set,
as Haswell can only report the point inside the transaction
with precise=2.
For some classes of aborts, like conflicts, this is not needed,
as it makes more sense to look at the complete critical section.
This gives a clean set of generalized events to examine transaction
success and aborts. Haswell has additional events for TSX, but those
are more specialized for very specific situations.

With checkpointed counters there can be a situation where the counter
is overflowing, aborts the transaction, is set back to a non overflowing
checkpoint, causes interupt. The interrupt doesn't see the overflow
because it has been checkpointed. This is then a spurious PMI, typically with
a ugly NMI message. It can also lead to excessive aborts.
Avoid this problem by:
- Using the full counter width for counting counters (earlier patch)
- Forbid sampling for checkpointed counters. It's not too useful anyways,
checkpointing is mainly for counting. The check is approximate
(to still handle KVM), but should catch the majority of cases.
- On a PMI always set back checkpointed counters to zero.

This patch fixes a problem with the shared registers mutual
exclusion code and incremental event scheduling by the
generic perf_event code.
There was a bug whereby the mutual exclusion on the shared
registers was not enforced because of incremental scheduling
abort due to event constraints. As an example on Intel
Nehalem, consider the following events:
group1= L1D_CACHE_LD:E_STATE,OFFCORE_RESPONSE_0:PF_RFO,L1D_CACHE_LD:I_STATE
group2= L1D_CACHE_LD:I_STATE
The L1D_CACHE_LD event can only be measured by 2 counters. Yet, there
are 3 instances here. The first group can be scheduled and is committed.
Then, the generic code tries to schedule group2 and this fails (because
there is no more counter to support the 3rd instance of L1D_CACHE_LD).
But in x86_schedule_events() error path, put_event_contraints() is invoked
on ALL the events and not just the ones that just failed. That causes the
"lock" on the shared offcore_response MSR to be released. Yet the first group
is actually scheduled and is exposed to reprogramming of that shared msr by
the sibling HT thread. In other words, there is no guarantee on what is
measured.
This patch fixes the problem by tagging committed events with the
PERF_X86_EVENT_COMMITTED tag. In the error path of x86_schedule_events(),
only the events NOT tagged have their constraint released. The tag
is eventually removed when the event in descheduled.

Recent Intel CPUs like Haswell and IvyBridge have a new
alternative MSR range for perfctrs that allows writing the full
counter width. Enable this range if the hardware reports it
using a new capability bit.
Currently the perf code queries CPUID to get the counter width,
and sign extends the counter values as needed. The traditional
PERFCTR MSRs always limit to 32bit, even though the counter
internally is larger (usually 48 bits on recent CPUs)
When the new capability is set use the alternative range which
do not have these restrictions.
This lowers the overhead of perf stat slightly because it has to
do less interrupts to accumulate the counter value. On Haswell
it also avoids some problems with TSX aborting when the end of
the counter range is reached.
( See the patch "perf/x86/intel: Avoid checkpointed counters
causing excessive TSX aborts" for more details. )

mem-loads is basically the same as Sandy Bridge,
but we use a separate string for changes later.
Haswell doesn't support the full precise store mode,
so we emulate it using the "DataLA" facility.
This allows to do everything, but for data sources we
can only detect L1 hit or not.
There is no explicit enable bit anymore, so we have
to tie it to a perf internal only flag.
The address is supported for all memory related PEBS
events with DataLA. Instead of only logging for the
load and store events we allow logging it for all
(it will be simply 0 if the current event does not
support it)

intel_pmu_handle_irq() has a warning in it if it does too many
loops. It is a WARN_ONCE(), but the perf_event_print_debug()
call beneath it is unconditional. For the first warning, you get
a nice backtrace and message, but subsequent ones just dump the
PMU state with no leading messages. I doubt this is what was
intended.
This patch will only print the PMU state when paired with the
WARN_ON() text. It effectively open-codes WARN_ONCE()'s
one-time-only logic.
My suspicion is that the code really just wants to make sure we
do not sit in the loop and spit out a warning for every loop
iteration after the 100th. From what I've seen, this is very
unlikely to happen since we also clear the PMU state.
After this patch, instead of seeing the PMU state dumped each
time, you will just see:

The valid mask for both offcore_response_0 and

This patch fixes the problem by correctly marking the

A distinction between desktop and server parts is introduced
because bits 24-30 are only available on the server parts.

This patch adds support for memory profiling using the
PEBS Load Latency facility.
Load accesses are sampled by HW and the instruction
address, data address, load latency, data source, tlb,
locked information can be saved in the sampling buffer
if using the PERF_SAMPLE_COST (for latency),
PERF_SAMPLE_ADDR, PERF_SAMPLE_DATA_SRC types.
To enable PEBS Load Latency, users have to use the
model specific event:
- on NHM/WSM: MEM_INST_RETIRED:LATENCY_ABOVE_THRESHOLD
- on SNB/IVB: MEM_TRANS_RETIRED:LATENCY_ABOVE_THRESHOLD
To make things easier, this patch also exports a generic
alias via sysfs: mem-loads. It export the right event
encoding based on the host CPU and can be used directly
by the perf tool.

then later be used by scheduling code or low-level x86 code.
The flags are propagated into event->hw.flags during the

put_event_constraint() call.
This mechanism is going to be used by the PEBS-LL patches.

The following patch adds perf_event support for the Xeon-Phi
PMU, as documented in the "Intel Xeon Phi Coprocessor (codename:
Knights Corner) Performance Monitoring Units" manual.
Even though it is a co-processor, a Phi runs a full Linux
environment and can support performance counters.
This is just barebones support, it does not add support for
interesting new features such as the SPFLT intruction that
allows starting/stopping events without entering the kernel.
The PMU internally is just like that of an original Pentium, but
a "P6-like" MSR interface is provided. The interface is
different enough from a real P6 that it's not easy (or
practical) to re-use the code in perf_event_p6.c

support with proper PEBS event constraints. It cannot reuse
the same as SandyBridge because some events (0xd3) are

We always need to pass the last sample period to
perf_sample_data_init(), otherwise the event distribution will be
wrong. Thus, modifiyng the function interface with the required period
as argument. So basically a pattern like this:
perf_sample_data_init(&data, ~0ULL);
data.period = event->hw.last_period;
will now be like that:
perf_sample_data_init(&data, ~0ULL, event->hw.last_period);
Avoids unininitialized data.period and simplifies code.

Adding sysfs group 'format' attribute for pmu device that

The event configuration is described in following
struct pefr_event_attr attributes:
config
config1
config2
Each sysfs attribute within the format attribute group,
describes mapping of name and bitfield definition within
one of above attributes.
eg:
"/sys/...<dev>/format/event" contains "config:0-7"
"/sys/...<dev>/format/umask" contains "config:8-15"
"/sys/...<dev>/format/usr" contains "config:16"
the attribute value syntax is:
line: config ':' bits
config: 'config' | 'config1' | 'config2"
bits: bits ',' bit_term | bit_term
bit_term: VALUE '-' VALUE | VALUE

With branch stack sampling, it is possible to filter by priv levels.
In system-wide mode, that means it is possible to capture only user
level branches. The builtin SW LBR filter needs to disassemble code
based on LBR captured addresses. For that, it needs to know the task
the addresses are associated with. Because of context switches, the
content of the branch stack buffer may contain addresses from
different tasks.
We need a callback on context switch to either flush the branch stack
or save it. This patch adds a new callback in struct pmu which is called
during context switches. The callback is called only when necessary.
That is when a system-wide context has, at least, one event which
uses PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK. The callback is never called for
per-thread context.
In this version, the Intel x86 code simply flushes (resets) the LBR
on context switches (fills it with zeroes). Those zeroed branches are
then filtered out by the SW filter.

The Intel LBR on some recent processor is capable
of filtering branches by type. The filter is configurable
via the LBR_SELECT MSR register.
There are limitation on how this register can be used.
On Nehalem/Westmere, the LBR_SELECT is shared by the two HT threads
when HT is on. It is private to each core when HT is off.
On SandyBridge, the LBR_SELECT register is private to each thread
when HT is on. It is private to each core when HT is off.
The kernel must manage the sharing of LBR_SELECT. It allows
multiple users on the same logical CPU to use LBR_SELECT as
long as they program it with the same value. Across sibling
CPUs (HT threads), the same restriction applies on NHM/WSM.
This patch implements this sharing logic by leveraging the
mechanism put in place for managing the offcore_response
shared MSR.
We modify __intel_shared_reg_get_constraints() to cause
x86_get_event_constraint() to be called because LBR may
be associated with events that may be counter constrained.
