v9 cover arch-PEBS enabling for Intel platforms

Changes:
v8 -> v9:
* Move cpuc->events[] clearing from x86_pmu_stop() to x86_pmu_del() to fix the NULL event access issue as events throttling (Patch 02/12)
* Add macro counter_mask() to simplify the counter mask generation

    code (Patch 05/12)

* Use "__always_inline" to replace "inline" attribute to ensure the setup_fn callback won't be called as indirect call (Patch 06/12)
* Code style refine (Patch 06/12)

v7 -> v8:
* Fix the warning reported by Kernel test robot (Patch 02/12)
* Rebase code to 6.18-rc1.

v6 -> v7:
* Rebase code to last tip perf/core tree.
* Opportunistically remove the redundant is_x86_event() prototype.

    (Patch 01/12)
  * Fix PEBS handler NULL event access and record loss issue.
    (Patch 02/12)

* Reset MSR_IA32_PEBS_INDEX at the head of_drain_arch_pebs() instead of end. It avoids the processed PEBS records are processed again in some corner cases like event throttling. (Patch 08/12)

v5 -> v6:
* Rebase code to last tip perf/core tree + "x86 perf bug fixes and optimization" patchset

v4 -> v5:
* Rebase code to 6.16-rc3
* Allocate/free arch-PEBS buffer in callbacks *prepare_cpu/*dead_cpu

    (patch 07/10, Peter)

* Code and comments refine (patch 09/10, Peter)

This patchset introduces architectural PEBS support for Intel platforms like Clearwater Forest (CWF) and Panther Lake (PTL). The detailed information about arch-PEBS can be found in chapter 11 "architectural PEBS" of "Intel Architecture Instruction Set Extensions and Future Features".

This patch set doesn't include the SSP and SIMD regs (OPMASK/YMM/ZMM) sampling support for arch-PEBS to avoid the dependency for the basic SIMD regs sampling support patch series[1]. Once the basic SIMD regs sampling is supported, the arch-PEBS based SSP and SIMD regs (OPMASK/YMM/ZMM) sampling would be supported in a later patch set.

Tests:
Run below tests on Clearwater Forest and Pantherlake, no issue is found.

1. Basic perf counting case.
perf stat -e '{branches,branches,branches,branches,branches,branches,branches,branches,cycles,instructions,ref-cycles}' sleep 1

2. Basic PMI based perf sampling case.
perf record -e '{branches,branches,branches,branches,branches,branches,branches,branches,cycles,instructions,ref-cycles}' sleep 1

3. Basic PEBS based perf sampling case.
perf record -e '{branches,branches,branches,branches,branches,branches,branches,branches,cycles,instructions,ref-cycles}:p' sleep 1

4. PEBS sampling case with basic, GPRs, vector-registers and LBR groups perf record -e branches:p -Iax,bx,ip,xmm0 -b -c 10000 sleep 1

5. User space PEBS sampling case with basic, GPRs and LBR groups

    perf record -e branches:p --user-regs=ax,bx,ip -b -c 10000 sleep 1

6. PEBS sampling case with auxiliary (memory info) group perf mem record sleep 1

7. PEBS sampling case with counter group
perf record -e '{branches:p,branches,cycles}:S' -c 10000 sleep 1

8. Perf stat and record test
perf test 100; perf test 131

PATCH v9 2/12 perf/x86: Fix NULL event access and potential PEBS record loss

In reply to Dapeng Mi

When intel_pmu_drain_pebs_icl() is called to drain PEBS records, the perf_event_overflow() could be called to process the last PEBS record.

While perf_event_overflow() could trigger the interrupt throttle and stop all events of the group, like what the below call-chain shows.

perf_event_overflow()
-> __perf_event_overflow()

    ->__perf_event_account_interrupt()
      -> perf_event_throttle_group()
        -> perf_event_throttle()
          -> event->pmu->stop()
            -> x86_pmu_stop()

The side effect of stopping the events is that all corresponding event pointers in cpuc->events[] array are cleared to NULL.

Assume there are two PEBS events (event a and event b) in a group. When intel_pmu_drain_pebs_icl() calls perf_event_overflow() to process the last PEBS record of PEBS event a, interrupt throttle is triggered and all pointers of event a and event b are cleared to NULL. Then intel_pmu_drain_pebs_icl() tries to process the last PEBS record of event b and encounters NULL pointer access.

To avoid this issue, move cpuc->events[] clearing from x86_pmu_stop() to x86_pmu_del(). It's safe since cpuc->active_mask or cpuc->pebs_enabled is always checked before access the event pointer from cpuc->events[].

Re: [Patch v9 02/12] perf/x86: Fix NULL event access and potential PEBS record loss

George, it just occurred to me that the below might also fix the root cause of your 866cf36bfee4 ("perf/x86/amd: Check event before enable to avoid GPF") and thus we can revert that again.

Specifically, this moves the clearing of cpuc->events[] out to x86_pmu_del() time.

PATCH v9 4/12 perf/x86/intel: Correct large PEBS flag check

In reply to Dapeng Mi

current large PEBS flag check only checks if sample_regs_user contains unsupported GPRs but doesn't check if sample_regs_intr contains unsupported GPRs.

Of course, currently PEBS HW supports to sample all perf supported GPRs, the missed check doesn't cause real issue. But it won't be true any more after the subsequent patches support to sample SSP register. SSP sampling is not supported by adaptive PEBS HW and it would be supported until arch-PEBS HW. So correct this issue.

Fixes a47ba4d77e12 ("perf/x86: Enable free running PEBS for REGS_USER/INTR")

current large PEBS flag check only checks if sample_regs_user contains unsupported GPRs but doesn't check if sample_regs_intr contains unsupported GPRs.

Of course, currently PEBS HW supports to sample all perf supported GPRs, the missed check doesn't cause real issue. But it won't be true any more after the subsequent patches support to sample SSP register. SSP sampling is not supported by adaptive PEBS HW and it would be supported until arch-PEBS HW. So correct this issue.

Fixes a47ba4d77e12 ("perf/x86: Enable free running PEBS for REGS_USER/INTR")

PATCH v9 5/12 perf/x86/intel: Initialize architectural PEBS

In reply to Dapeng Mi

arch-PEBS leverages CPUID.23H.4/5 sub-leaves enumerate arch-PEBS supported capabilities and counters bitmap. This patch parses these 2 sub-leaves and initializes arch-PEBS capabilities and corresponding structures.

Since IA32_PEBS_ENABLE and MSR_PEBS_DATA_CFG MSRs are no longer existed for arch-PEBS, arch-PEBS doesn't need to manipulate these MSRs. Thus add a simple pair of __intel_pmu_pebs_enable/disable() callbacks for arch-PEBS.

nit: It seems strange to use a u64 for caps but only use the top 32 bits. Did you intend to use the low 32-bits for eax?

Thanks,
Ian

Re: [Patch v9 05/12] perf/x86/intel: Initialize architectural PEBS

Quoted 134 lines · Ian Rogers
Quoted 133 lines · Dapeng Mi

arch-PEBS leverages CPUID.23H.4/5 sub-leaves enumerate arch-PEBS supported capabilities and counters bitmap. This patch parses these 2 sub-leaves and initializes arch-PEBS capabilities and corresponding structures.

Since IA32_PEBS_ENABLE and MSR_PEBS_DATA_CFG MSRs are no longer existed for arch-PEBS, arch-PEBS doesn't need to manipulate these MSRs. Thus add a simple pair of __intel_pmu_pebs_enable/disable() callbacks for arch-PEBS.

+               hybrid(pmu, arch_pebs_cap).caps = (u64)ebx << 32;

nit: It seems strange to use a u64 for caps but only use the top 32 bits. Did you intend to use the low 32-bits for eax?

The intent of right shifting the caps 32 bits is to ensure there are same layout for the caps with XXX_CFG_C MSR and PEBS record format which put the caps field on the higher 32 bits. Then it would be easy and unified to manipulate the caps filed in these 3 places. Thanks.

PATCH v9 6/12 perf/x86/intel/ds: Factor out PEBS record processing code to functions

In reply to Dapeng Mi

Beside some PEBS record layout difference, arch-PEBS can share most of PEBS record processing code with adaptive PEBS. Thus, factor out these common processing code to independent inline functions, so they can be reused by subsequent arch-PEBS handler.

PATCH v9 7/12 perf/x86/intel/ds: Factor out PEBS group processing code to functions

In reply to Dapeng Mi

Adaptive PEBS and arch-PEBS share lots of same code to process these PEBS groups, like basic, GPR and meminfo groups. Extract these shared code to generic functions to avoid duplicated code.

PATCH v9 8/12 perf/x86/intel: Process arch-PEBS records or record fragments

In reply to Dapeng Mi

A significant difference with adaptive PEBS is that arch-PEBS record supports fragments which means an arch-PEBS record could be split into several independent fragments which have its own arch-PEBS header in each fragment.

This patch defines architectural PEBS record layout structures and add helpers to process arch-PEBS records or fragments. Only legacy PEBS groups like basic, GPR, XMM and LBR groups are supported in this patch, the new added YMM/ZMM/OPMASK vector registers capturing would be supported in the future.

perf/x86/intel: Process arch-PEBS records or record fragments

A significant difference with adaptive PEBS is that arch-PEBS record supports fragments which means an arch-PEBS record could be split into several independent fragments which have its own arch-PEBS header in each fragment.

This patch defines architectural PEBS record layout structures and add helpers to process arch-PEBS records or fragments. Only legacy PEBS groups like basic, GPR, XMM and LBR groups are supported in this patch, the new added YMM/ZMM/OPMASK vector registers capturing would be supported in the future.

If the header->size is 0, will it cause infinite loop? I can see a 0 check below but not here.

Re: [Patch v9 08/12] perf/x86/intel: Process arch-PEBS records or record fragments

Quoted 153 lines · Chun-Tse Shao
Quoted 152 lines · Dapeng Mi

A significant difference with adaptive PEBS is that arch-PEBS record supports fragments which means an arch-PEBS record could be split into several independent fragments which have its own arch-PEBS header in each fragment.

This patch defines architectural PEBS record layout structures and add helpers to process arch-PEBS records or fragments. Only legacy PEBS groups like basic, GPR, XMM and LBR groups are supported in this patch, the new added YMM/ZMM/OPMASK vector registers capturing would be supported in the future.

If the header->size is 0, will it cause infinite loop? I can see a 0 check below but not here.

No, there are 2 places to check the header size in intel_pmu_drain_arch_pebs(). They would break the while loop if there is any 0 size record or fragment. Thanks.

...

arch/x86/events/intel/ds.c:2983:24: error: cast from pointer to integer of different size [-Werror=pointer-to-int-cast]

The forced type conversion to 'u64' and 'void *' are not 32-bit clean, but they are also entirely unnecessary: ->pebs_vaddr is 'void *' already, and integer-compatible pointer arithmetics will work just fine on it.

Fix & simplify the code.

PATCH v9 10/12 perf/x86/intel: Update dyn_constranit base on PEBS event precise level

In reply to Dapeng Mi

arch-PEBS provides CPUIDs to enumerate which counters support PEBS sampling and precise distribution PEBS sampling. Thus PEBS constraints should be dynamically configured base on these counter and precise distribution bitmap instead of defining them statically.

Update event dyn_constraint base on PEBS event precise level.

Clearly it became a victim of some scatter brained maintainer or something.

Hi Peter,

I tested the queue/perf/core code with a slight code refine on SPR/CWF/PTL. In summary, all things look good. The constraints validation passes on all these 3 platforms, no overlapped constraints are reported. Besides, perf counting/sampling (both legacy PEBS and arch-PEBS) works well, no issue is found.

I did a slight change for the intel_pmu_check_dyn_constr() helper. It should be good enough to only validate the GP counters for the PEBS counter and PDIST constraint check. Beside the code style is refined opportunistically. Thanks.

PATCH v9 11/12 perf/x86/intel: Setup PEBS data configuration and enable legacy groups

In reply to Dapeng Mi

Different with legacy PEBS, arch-PEBS provides per-counter PEBS data configuration by programing MSR IA32_PMC_GPx/FXx_CFG_C MSRs.

This patch obtains PEBS data configuration from event attribute and then writes the PEBS data configuration to MSR IA32_PMC_GPx/FXx_CFG_C and enable corresponding PEBS groups.

Please notice this patch only enables XMM SIMD regs sampling for arch-PEBS, the other SIMD regs (OPMASK/YMM/ZMM) sampling on arch-PEBS would be supported after PMI based SIMD regs (OPMASK/YMM/ZMM) sampling is supported.

perf/x86/intel: Setup PEBS data configuration and enable legacy groups

Different with legacy PEBS, arch-PEBS provides per-counter PEBS data configuration by programing MSR IA32_PMC_GPx/FXx_CFG_C MSRs.

This patch obtains PEBS data configuration from event attribute and then writes the PEBS data configuration to MSR IA32_PMC_GPx/FXx_CFG_C and enable corresponding PEBS groups.

Please notice this patch only enables XMM SIMD regs sampling for arch-PEBS, the other SIMD regs (OPMASK/YMM/ZMM) sampling on arch-PEBS would be supported after PMI based SIMD regs (OPMASK/YMM/ZMM) sampling is supported.

Re: [Patch v9 11/12] perf/x86/intel: Setup PEBS data configuration and enable legacy groups

In reply to Dapeng Mi
Quoted 100 lines · Dapeng Mi

Different with legacy PEBS, arch-PEBS provides per-counter PEBS data configuration by programing MSR IA32_PMC_GPx/FXx_CFG_C MSRs.

This patch obtains PEBS data configuration from event attribute and then writes the PEBS data configuration to MSR IA32_PMC_GPx/FXx_CFG_C and enable corresponding PEBS groups.

Please notice this patch only enables XMM SIMD regs sampling for arch-PEBS, the other SIMD regs (OPMASK/YMM/ZMM) sampling on arch-PEBS would be supported after PMI based SIMD regs (OPMASK/YMM/ZMM) sampling is supported.

Nit: Perhaps there should be a warning if "hwc->sample_period > ARCH_PEBS_RELOAD"?

Nit: Perhaps there should be a warning if "hwc->sample_period > ARCH_PEBS_RELOAD"?

Hmm, strictly speaking, we should not check if hwc->sample_period is larger than ARCH_PEBS_RELOAD since it's allowed even hwc->sample_period is larger than ARCH_PEBS_RELOAD as long as hwc->sample_period is not larger than x86_pmu.max_period (which is "x86_pmu.cntval_mask >> 1" for modern Intel platforms). But we indeed need a sample_period check for arch-PEBS, just like what the below ACR does.

```

        /* The reload value cannot exceeds the max period */
        if (event->attr.sample_period > x86_pmu.max_period)
            return -EINVAL;

```

I would add a patch to do this check. Thanks.

PATCH v9 12/12 perf/x86/intel: Add counter group support for arch-PEBS

In reply to Dapeng Mi

Base on previous adaptive PEBS counter snapshot support, add counter group support for architectural PEBS. Since arch-PEBS shares same counter group layout with adaptive PEBS, directly reuse __setup_pebs_counter_group() helper to process arch-PEBS counter group.

perf/x86/intel: Add counter group support for arch-PEBS

Base on previous adaptive PEBS counter snapshot support, add counter group support for architectural PEBS. Since arch-PEBS shares same counter group layout with adaptive PEBS, directly reuse __setup_pebs_counter_group() helper to process arch-PEBS counter group.

Hi Dapeng,

I'm trying to understand why the late_setup initialization was changed here and its connection with counter group support. I couldn't find a mention in the commit message.

Thanks,

Hi Dapeng,

I'm trying to understand why the late_setup initialization was changed here and its connection with counter group support. I couldn't find a mention in the commit message.

It's because arch-PEBS also supports counters group sampling, not just the legacy PEBS with PEBS format 6. Currently ACR (auto counter reload) and PEBS both needs the late_setup, ACR and counters group sampling (regardless of legacy PEBS or arch-PEBS) are introduced since Perfmon v6, so the late_setup initialization is moved to the unified place of perfmon v6 initialization. Thanks.

Hi Dapeng,

I'm trying to understand why the late_setup initialization was changed here and its connection with counter group support. I couldn't find a mention in the commit message.

Quoted 6 lines

It's because arch-PEBS also supports counters group sampling, not just the legacy PEBS with PEBS format 6. Currently ACR (auto counter reload) and PEBS both needs the late_setup, ACR and counters group sampling (regardless of legacy PEBS or arch-PEBS) are introduced since Perfmon v6, so the late_setup initialization is moved to the unified place of perfmon v6 initialization. Thanks.

Ah, okay. I think it would have been clearer if those changes and the counter group changes were kept in separate patches. Anyway, this code has landed and nothing broke with this change.

Thanks,
Ian
