2013-01-16ARM: perf: don't pretend to support counting of L1I writesWill Deacon
ARM has a harvard cache architecture and cannot write directly to the I-side. This patch removes the L1I write events from the cache map (which previously returned *read* events in many cases). Reported-by: Mike Williams <michael.williams@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com>
2013-01-03ARM: drivers: remove __dev* attributes.Greg Kroah-Hartman
CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option. As a result, the __dev* markings need to be removed. This change removes the use of __devinit, __devexit_p, __devinitdata, and __devexit from these drivers. Based on patches originally written by Bill Pemberton, but redone by me in order to handle some of the coding style issues better, by hand.

2012-11-09ARM: perf: consistently use struct perf_event in arm_pmu functionsSudeep KarkadaNagesha
The arm_pmu functions have wildly varied parameters which can often be derived from struct perf_event. This patch changes the arm_pmu function prototypes so that struct perf_event pointers are passed in preference to fields that can be derived from the event.

2012-11-09ARM: perf: allocate CPU PMU dynamically at probe timeSudeep KarkadaNagesha
Supporting multiple, heterogeneous CPU PMUs requires us to allocate the arm_pmu structures dynamically as the devices are probed. This patch removes the static structure definitions for each CPU PMU type and instead passes pointers to the PMU-specific init functions.

2012-08-23ARM: perf: prepare for moving CPU PMU code into separate fileWill Deacon
The CPU PMU code is tightly coupled with generic ARM PMU handling code. This makes it cumbersome when trying to add support for other ARM PMUs (e.g. interconnect, L2 cache controller, bus) as the generic parts of the code are not readily reusable. This patch cleans up perf_event.c so that reusable code is exposed via header files to other potential PMU drivers. The CPU code is consistently named to identify it as such and also to prepare for moving it into a separate file. Signed-off-by: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com>
2012-08-23ARM: perf: probe devicetree in preference to current CPUWill Deacon
The CPU PMU is probed using the current cpuid information as part of the early_initcall initialising the architecture perf backend. For architectures without NMI (such as ARM), this does not need to be performed early and can be deferred to the driver probe callback. This also allows us to probe the devicetree in preference to parsing the current cpuid, which may be invalid on a big.LITTLE multi-cluster system. This patch defers the PMU probing and uses the devicetree information when available. Signed-off-by: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com>
2012-07-09ARM: 7448/1: perf: remove arm_perf_pmu_ids global enumerationWill Deacon
In order to provide PMU name strings compatible with the OProfile user ABI, an enumeration of all PMUs is currently used by perf to identify each PMU uniquely. Unfortunately, this does not scale well in the presence of multiple PMUs and creates a single, global namespace across all PMUs in the system. This patch removes the enumeration and instead uses the name string for the PMU to map onto the OProfile variant. perf_pmu_name is implemented for CPU PMUs, which is all that OProfile cares about anyway.

2012-05-09perf: Pass last sampling period to perf_sample_data_init()Robert Richter
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.

2012-03-07ARM: 7356/1: perf: check that we have an event in the PMU IRQ handlersWill Deacon
The PMU IRQ handlers in perf assume that if a counter has overflowed then perf must be responsible. In the paranoid world of crazy hardware, this could be false, so check that we do have a valid event before attempting to dereference NULL in the interrupt path.

2012-03-07ARM: 7354/1: perf: limit sample_period to half max_period in non-sampling modeWill Deacon
On ARM, the PMU does not stop counting after an overflow and therefore IRQ latency affects the new counter value read by the kernel. This is significant for non-sampling runs where it is possible for the new value to overtake the previous one, causing the delta to be out by up to max_period events. Commit a737823d ("ARM: 6835/1: perf: ensure overflows aren't missed due to IRQ latency") attempted to fix this problem by allowing interrupt handlers to pass an overflow flag to the event update function, causing the overflow calculation to assume that the counter passed through zero when going from prev to new. Unfortunately, this doesn't work when overflow occurs on the perf_task_tick path because we have the flag cleared and end up computing a large negative delta. This patch removes the overflow flag from armpmu_event_update and instead limits the sample_period to half of the max_period for non-sampling profiling runs.

2011-08-31ARM: perf: remove cpu-related misnomersMark Rutland
Currently struct cpu_hw_events stores data on events running on a PMU associated with a CPU. As this data is general enough to be used for system PMUs, this name is a misnomer, and may cause confusion when it is used for system PMUs. Additionally, 'armpmu' is commonly used as a parameter name for an instance of struct arm_pmu. The name is also used for a global instance which represents the CPU's PMU. As cpu_hw_events is now not tied to CPU PMUs, it is renamed to pmu_hw_events, with instances of it renamed similarly. As the global 'armpmu' is CPU-specfic, it is renamed to cpu_pmu. This should make it clearer which code is generic, and which is coupled with the CPU.

2011-08-31ARM: perf: refactor event mappingMark Rutland
Currently mapping an event type to a hardware configuration value depends on the data being pointed to from struct arm_pmu. These fields (cache_map, event_map, raw_event_mask) are currently specific to CPU PMUs, and do not serve the general case well. This patch replaces the event map pointers on struct arm_pmu with a new 'map_event' function pointer. Small shim functions are used to reuse the existing common code.

2011-08-31ARM: perf: lock PMU registers per-CPUMark Rutland
Currently, a single lock serialises access to CPU PMU registers. This global locking is unnecessary as PMU registers are local to the CPU they monitor. This patch replaces the global lock with a per-CPU lock. As the lock is in struct cpu_hw_events, PMUs providing a single cpu_hw_events instance can be locked globally.

2011-07-01perf, arch: Add generic NODE cache eventsPeter Zijlstra
Add a NODE level to the generic cache events which is used to measure local vs remote memory accesses. Like all other cache events, an ACCESS is HIT+MISS, if there is no way to distinguish between reads and writes do reads only etc.. The below needs filling out for !x86 (which I filled out with unsupported events). I'm fairly sure ARM can leave it like that since it doesn't strike me as an architecture that even has NUMA support. SH might have something since it does appear to have some NUMA bits. Sparc64, PowerPC and MIPS certainly want a good look there since they clearly are NUMA capable.

2011-07-01perf: Remove the nmi parameter from the swevent and overflow interfacePeter Zijlstra
The nmi parameter indicated if we could do wakeups from the current context, if not, we would set some state and self-IPI and let the resulting interrupt do the wakeup. For the various event classes: - hardware: nmi=0; PMI is in fact an NMI or we run irq_work_run from the PMI-tail (ARM etc.) - tracepoint: nmi=0; since tracepoint could be from NMI context. - software: nmi=[0,1]; some, like the schedule thing cannot perform wakeups, and hence need 0. As one can see, there is very little nmi=1 usage, and the down-side of not using it is that on some platforms some software events can have a jiffy delay in wakeup (when arch_irq_work_raise isn't implemented). The up-side however is that we can remove the nmi parameter and save a bunch of conditionals in fast paths.

2011-03-26ARM: 6835/1: perf: ensure overflows aren't missed due to IRQ latencyWill Deacon
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.

Introduce a CPU_V6K configuration option for platforms to select if they have a V6K CPU core.
