The kernel cannot disambiguate when 2+ PEBS counters overflow at the
same time. This is what the comment for this code suggests. However,
I see the comparison is done with the unfiltered p->status which is a
copy of IA32_PERF_GLOBAL_STATUS at the time of the sample. This
register contains more than the PEBS counter overflow bits. It also
includes many other bits which could also be set.

The commit 3966c3feca ("x86/perf/amd: Remove need to check "running"
bit in NMI handler") introduced this. It seems x86_pmu_stop can be
called recursively (like when it losts some samples) like below:
x86_pmu_stop
intel_pmu_disable_event (x86_pmu_disable)
intel_pmu_pebs_disable
intel_pmu_drain_pebs_nhm (x86_pmu_drain_pebs_buffer)
x86_pmu_stop
While commit 35d1ce6bec ("perf/x86/intel/ds: Fix x86_pmu_stop
warning for large PEBS") fixed it for the normal cases, there's
another path to call x86_pmu_stop() recursively when a PEBS error was
detected (like two or more counters overflowed at the same time).
Like in the Kan's previous fix, we can skip the interrupt accounting
for large PEBS, so check the iregs which is set for PMI only.

Starting with Arch Perfmon v5, the anythread filter on generic counters may be
deprecated. The current kernel was exporting the any filter without checking.
On Icelake, it means you could do cpu/event=0x3c,any/ even though the filter
does not exist. This patch corrects the problem by relying on the CPUID 0xa leaf
function to determine if anythread is supported or not as described in the
Intel SDM Vol3b 18.2.5.1 AnyThread Deprecation section.

It might be possible that different CPUs have different CPU metrics on a
platform. In this case, writing the GLOBAL_CTRL_EN_PERF_METRICS bit to
the GLOBAL_CTRL register of a CPU, which doesn't support the TopDown
perf metrics feature, causes MSR access error.
Current TopDown perf metrics feature is enumerated using the boot CPU's
PERF_CAPABILITIES MSR. The MSR only indicates the boot CPU supports this
feature.
Check the PERF_CAPABILITIES MSR for each CPU. If any CPU doesn't support
the perf metrics feature, disable the feature globally.

The "MiB" result of the IMC free-running bandwidth events,
uncore_imc_free_running/read/ and uncore_imc_free_running/write/ are 16
times too small.
The "MiB" value equals the raw IMC free-running bandwidth counter value
times a "scale" which is inaccurate.
The IMC free-running bandwidth events should be incremented per 64B
cache line, not DWs (4 bytes). The "scale" should be 6.103515625e-5.
Fix the "scale" for both Snow Ridge and Ice Lake.

Introduced early attributes /sys/devices/uncore_iio_<pmu_idx>/die* are
initialized by skx_iio_set_mapping(), however, for example, for multiple
segment platforms skx_iio_get_topology() returns -EPERM before a list of
attributes in skx_iio_mapping_group will have been initialized.
As a result the list is being NULL. Thus the warning
"sysfs: (bin_)attrs not set by subsystem for group: uncore_iio_*/" appears
and uncore_iio pmus are not available in sysfs. Clear IIO attr_update
to properly handle the cases when topology information cannot be

The Snow Ridge integrated PCIe3 uncore unit can be used to collect
performance data, e.g. utilization, between PCIe devices, plugged into
the PCIe port, and the components (in M2IOSF) responsible for
translating and managing requests to/from the device. The performance
data is very useful for analyzing the performance of PCIe devices.
The device with the PCIe3 uncore PMON units is owned by the portdrv_pci
driver. Create a PCI sub driver for the PCIe3 uncore PMON units.
Here are some difference between PCIe3 uncore unit and other uncore
pci units.
- There may be several Root Ports on a system. But the uncore counters
only exist in the Root Port A. A user can configure the channel mask
to collect the data from other Root Ports.
- The event format of the PCIe3 uncore unit is the same as IIO unit of
SKX.
- The Control Register of PCIe3 uncore unit is 64 bits.
- The offset of each counters is 8, which is the same as M2M unit of
SNR.
- New MSR addresses for unit control, counter and counter config.

Some uncore counters may be located in the configuration space of a PCI
device, which already has a bonded driver. Currently, the uncore driver
cannot register a PCI uncore PMU for these counters, because, to
register a PCI uncore PMU, the uncore driver must be bond to the device.
However, one device can only have one bonded driver.
Add an uncore PCI sub driver to support such kind of devices.
The sub driver doesn't own the device. In initialization, the sub
driver searches the device via pci_get_device(), and register the
corresponding PMU for the device. In the meantime, the sub driver
registers a PCI bus notifier, which is used to notify the sub driver
once the device is removed. The sub driver can unregister the PMU
accordingly.
The sub driver only searches the devices defined in its id table. The
id table varies on different platforms, which will be implemented in the
following platform-specific patch.

Perf should only invoke the perf_event_overflow() in the overflow

Current drain_pebs() is called from:

- intel_pmu_pebs_sched_task() -- non-overflow context
- intel_pmu_pebs_disable() -- non-overflow context
- intel_pmu_auto_reload_read() -- possible overflow context
With PERF_SAMPLE_READ + PERF_FORMAT_GROUP, the function may be
invoked in the NMI handler. But, before calling the function, the
PEBS buffer has already been drained. The __intel_pmu_pebs_event()
will not be called in the possible overflow context.
To fix the issue, an indicator is required to distinguish between the
overflow context aka handle_pmi_common() and other cases.
The dummy regs pointer can be used as the indicator.
In the non-overflow context, perf should treat the last record the same
as other PEBS records, and doesn't invoke the generic overflow handler.

Intro
=====
The TopDown Microarchitecture Analysis (TMA) Method is a structured
analysis methodology to identify critical performance bottlenecks in
out-of-order processors. Current perf has supported the method.
The method works well, but there is one problem. To collect the TopDown
events, several GP counters have to be used. If a user wants to collect
other events at the same time, the multiplexing probably be triggered,
which impacts the accuracy.
To free up the scarce GP counters, the hardware TopDown metrics feature
is introduced from Ice Lake. The hardware implements an additional
"metrics" register and a new Fixed Counter 3 that measures pipeline
"slots". The TopDown events can be calculated from them instead.
Events
======
The level 1 TopDown has four metrics. There is no event-code assigned to
the TopDown metrics. Four metric events are exported as separate perf
events, which map to the internal "metrics" counter register. Those
events do not exist in hardware, but can be allocated by the scheduler.
For the event mapping, a special 0x00 event code is used, which is
reserved for fake events. The metric events start from umask 0x10.
When setting up the metric events, they point to the Fixed Counter 3.
They have to be specially handled.
- Add the update_topdown_event() callback to read the additional metrics
MSR and generate the metrics.
- Add the set_topdown_event_period() callback to initialize metrics MSR
and the fixed counter 3.
- Add a variable n_metric_event to track the number of the accepted
metrics events. The sharing between multiple users of the same metric
without multiplexing is not allowed.
- Only enable/disable the fixed counter 3 when there are no other active
TopDown events, which avoid the unnecessary writing of the fixed
control register.
- Disable the PMU when reading the metrics event. The metrics MSR and
the fixed counter 3 are read separately. The values may be modified by
an NMI.
All four metric events don't support sampling. Since they will be
handled specially for event update, a flag PERF_X86_EVENT_TOPDOWN is
introduced to indicate this case.
The slots event can support both sampling and counting.
For counting, the flag is also applied.
For sampling, it will be handled normally as other normal events.
Groups
======
The slots event is required in a Topdown group.
To avoid reading the METRICS register multiple times, the metrics and
slots value can only be updated by slots event in a group.
All active slots and metrics events will be updated one time.
Therefore, the slots event must be before any metric events in a Topdown
group.
NMI
======
The METRICS related register may be overflow. The bit 48 of the STATUS
register will be set. If so, PERF_METRICS and Fixed counter 3 are
required to be reset. The patch also update all active slots and
metrics events in the NMI handler.
The update_topdown_event() has to read two registers separately. The
values may be modified by an NMI. PMU has to be disabled before calling
the function.
RDPMC
======
RDPMC is temporarily disabled. A later patch will enable it.

Currently, the if-else is used in the intel_pmu_disable/enable_event to
check the type of an event. It works well, but with more and more types
added later, e.g., perf metrics, compared to the switch statement, the
if-else may impair the readability of the code.
There is no harm to use the switch statement to replace the if-else
here. Also, some optimizing compilers may compile a switch statement
into a jump-table which is more efficient than if-else for a large
number of cases. The performance gain may not be observed for now,
because the number of cases is only 5, but the benefits may be observed
with more and more types added in the future.
Use switch to replace the if-else in the intel_pmu_disable/enable_event.

Reading LBR registers in a perf NMI handler for a non-PEBS event
causes a high overhead because the number of LBR registers is huge.
To reduce the overhead, the XSAVES instruction should be used to replace
the LBR registers' reading method.
The XSAVES buffer used for LBR read has to be per-CPU because the NMI
handler invoked the lbr_read(). The existing task_ctx_data buffer
cannot be used which is per-task and only be allocated for the LBR call
stack mode. A new lbr_xsave pointer is introduced in the cpu_hw_events
as an XSAVES buffer for LBR read.
The XSAVES buffer should be allocated only when LBR is used by a
non-PEBS event on the CPU because the total size of the lbr_xsave is
not small (~1.4KB).
The XSAVES buffer is allocated when a non-PEBS event is added, but it
is lazily released in x86_release_hardware() when perf releases the
entire PMU hardware resource, because perf may frequently schedule the
event, e.g. high context switch. The lazy release method reduces the
overhead of frequently allocate/free the buffer.
If the lbr_xsave fails to be allocated, roll back to normal Arch LBR
lbr_read().

In the LBR call stack mode, LBR information is used to reconstruct a
call stack. To get the complete call stack, perf has to save/restore
all LBR registers during a context switch. Due to a large number of the
LBR registers, this process causes a high CPU overhead. To reduce the
CPU overhead during a context switch, use the XSAVES/XRSTORS
instructions.
Every XSAVE area must follow a canonical format: the legacy region, an
XSAVE header and the extended region. Although the LBR information is
only kept in the extended region, a space for the legacy region and
XSAVE header is still required. Add a new dedicated structure for LBR
XSAVES support.
Before enabling XSAVES support, the size of the LBR state has to be
sanity checked, because:
- the size of the software structure is calculated from the max number
of the LBR depth, which is enumerated by the CPUID leaf for Arch LBR.
The size of the LBR state is enumerated by the CPUID leaf for XSAVE
support of Arch LBR. If the values from the two CPUID leaves are not
consistent, it may trigger a buffer overflow. For example, a hypervisor
may unconsciously set inconsistent values for the two emulated CPUID.
- unlike other state components, the size of an LBR state depends on the
max number of LBRs, which may vary from generation to generation.
Expose the function xfeature_size() for the sanity check.
The LBR XSAVES support will be disabled if the size of the LBR state
enumerated by CPUID doesn't match with the size of the software
structure.
The XSAVE instruction requires 64-byte alignment for state buffers. A
new macro is added to reflect the alignment requirement. A 64-byte
aligned kmem_cache is created for architecture LBR.
Currently, the structure for each state component is maintained in
fpu/types.h. The structure for the new LBR state component should be
maintained in the same place. Move structure lbr_entry to fpu/types.h as
well for broader sharing.
Add dedicated lbr_save/lbr_restore functions for LBR XSAVES support,
which invokes the corresponding xstate helpers to XSAVES/XRSTORS LBR
information at the context switch when the call stack mode is enabled.
Since the XSAVES/XRSTORS instructions will be eventually invoked, the
dedicated functions is named with '_xsaves'/'_xrstors' postfix.

Currently, the task_ctx_data is only used by the Intel LBR call stack
feature, which is introduced since Haswell. The kmem_cache should be
only created for Haswell and later platforms. There is no alignment
requirement for the existing platforms.

Last Branch Records (LBR) enables recording of software path history by
logging taken branches and other control flows within architectural
registers now. Intel CPUs have had model-specific LBR for quite some
time, but this evolves them into an architectural feature now.
The main improvements of Architectural LBR implemented includes:
- Linux kernel can support the LBR features without knowing the model
number of the current CPU.
- Architectural LBR capabilities can be enumerated by CPUID. The
lbr_ctl_map is based on the CPUID Enumeration.
- The possible LBR depth can be retrieved from CPUID enumeration. The
max value is written to the new MSR_ARCH_LBR_DEPTH as the number of
LBR entries.
- A new IA32_LBR_CTL MSR is introduced to enable and configure LBRs,
which replaces the IA32_DEBUGCTL[bit 0] and the LBR_SELECT MSR.
- Each LBR record or entry is still comprised of three MSRs,
IA32_LBR_x_FROM_IP, IA32_LBR_x_TO_IP and IA32_LBR_x_TO_IP.
But they become the architectural MSRs.
- Architectural LBR is stack-like now. Entry 0 is always the youngest
branch, entry 1 the next youngest... The TOS MSR has been removed.
The way to enable/disable Architectural LBR is similar to the previous
model-specific LBR. __intel_pmu_lbr_enable/disable() can be reused, but
some modifications are required, which include:
- MSR_ARCH_LBR_CTL is used to enable and configure the Architectural
LBR.
- When checking the value of the IA32_DEBUGCTL MSR, ignoring the
DEBUGCTLMSR_LBR (bit 0) for Architectural LBR, which has no meaning
and always return 0.
- The FREEZE_LBRS_ON_PMI has to be explicitly set/clear, because
MSR_IA32_DEBUGCTLMSR is not touched in __intel_pmu_lbr_disable() for
Architectural LBR.
- Only MSR_ARCH_LBR_CTL is cleared in __intel_pmu_lbr_disable() for
Architectural LBR.
Some Architectural LBR dedicated functions are implemented to
reset/read/save/restore LBR.
- For reset, writing to the ARCH_LBR_DEPTH MSR clears all Arch LBR
entries, which is a lot faster and can improve the context switch
latency.
- For read, the branch type information can be retrieved from
the MSR_ARCH_LBR_INFO_*. But it's not fully compatible due to
OTHER_BRANCH type. The software decoding is still required for the
OTHER_BRANCH case.
LBR records are stored in the age order as well. Reuse
intel_pmu_store_lbr(). Check the CPUID enumeration before accessing
the corresponding bits in LBR_INFO.
- For save/restore, applying the fast reset (writing ARCH_LBR_DEPTH).
Reading 'lbr_from' of entry 0 instead of the TOS MSR to check if the
LBR registers are reset in the deep C-state. If 'the deep C-state
reset' bit is not set in CPUID enumeration, ignoring the check.
XSAVE support for Architectural LBR will be implemented later.
The number of LBR entries cannot be hardcoded anymore, which should be
retrieved from CPUID enumeration. A new structure
x86_perf_task_context_arch_lbr is introduced for Architectural LBR.

The way to store the LBR information from a PEBS LBR record can be
reused in Architecture LBR, because
- The LBR information is stored like a stack. Entry 0 is always the
youngest branch.
- The layout of the LBR INFO MSR is similar.
The LBR information may be retrieved from either the LBR registers
(non-PEBS event) or a buffer (PEBS event). Extend rdlbr_*() to support
both methods.
Explicitly check the invalid entry (0s), which can avoid unnecessary MSR
access if using a non-PEBS event. For a PEBS event, the check should
slightly improve the performance as well. The invalid entries are cut.
The intel_pmu_lbr_filter() doesn't need to check and filter them out.
Cannot share the function with current model-specific LBR read, because
the direction of the LBR growth is opposite.

The previous model-specific LBR and Architecture LBR (legacy way) use a
similar method to save/restore the LBR information, which directly
accesses the LBR registers. The codes which read/write a set of LBR
registers can be shared between them.
Factor out two functions which are used to read/write a set of LBR
registers.
Add lbr_info into structure x86_pmu, and use it to replace the hardcoded
LBR INFO MSR, because the LBR INFO MSR address of the previous
model-specific LBR is different from Architecture LBR. The MSR address
should be assigned at boot time. For now, only Sky Lake and later
platforms have the LBR INFO MSR.
