The Alder Lake N only has e-cores. The X86_FEATURE_HYBRID_CPU flag is
not set. The perf cannot retrieve the correct CPU type via
get_this_hybrid_cpu_type(). The model specific get_hybrid_cpu_type() is
hardcode to p-core. The wrong CPU type is given to the PMU of the
Alder Lake N.
Since Alder Lake N isn't in fact a hybrid CPU, remove ALDERLAKE_N from
the rest of {ALDER,RAPTOP}LAKE and create a non-hybrid PMU setup.
The differences between Gracemont and the previous Tremont are,
- Number of GP counters
- Load and store latency Events
- PEBS event_constraints
- Instruction Latency support
- Data source encoding
- Memory access latency encoding

With branch fusion and other optimizations, branch sampling hardware in
some processors can report a branch from address that points to an
instruction preceding the actual branch by several bytes.
In such cases, the classifier cannot determine the branch type which leads
to failures such as with the recently added test from commit b55878c90a
("perf test: Add test for branch stack sampling"). Branch information is
also easier to consume and annotate if branch from addresses always point
to branch instructions.
Add a new variant of the branch classifier that can account for instruction
fusion. If fusion is expected and the current branch from address does not
point to a branch instruction, it attempts to find the first branch within
the next (MAX_INSN_SIZE - 1) bytes and if found, additionally provides the
offset between the reported branch from address and the address of the
expected branch instruction.

If AMD Last Branch Record Extension Version 2 (LbrExtV2) is detected,
enable it alongside LBR Freeze on PMI when an event requests branch stack
i.e. PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK.
Each branch record is represented by a pair of registers, LBR From and LBR
To. The freeze feature prevents any updates to these registers once a PMC
overflows. The contents remain unchanged until the freeze bit is cleared by
the PMI handler.
The branch records are read and copied to sample data before unfreezing.
However, only valid entries are copied. There is no additional register to
denote which of the register pairs represent the top of the stack (TOS)
since internal register renaming always ensures that the first pair (i.e.
index 0) is the one representing the most recent branch and so on.
The LBR registers are per-thread resources and are cleared explicitly
whenever a new task is scheduled in. There are no special implications on
the contents of these registers when transitioning to deep C-states.

Splitting the logic for determining the guest values is unnecessarily
confusing, and potentially fragile. Perf should have full knowledge and
control of what values are loaded for the guest.
If we change .guest_get_msrs() to take a struct kvm_pmu pointer, then it
can generate the full set of guest values by grabbing guest ds_area and
pebs_data_cfg. Alternatively, .guest_get_msrs() could take the desired
guest MSR values directly (ds_area and pebs_data_cfg), but kvm_pmu is
vendor agnostic, so we don't see any reason to not just pass the pointer.

Add support for EPT-Friendly PEBS, a new CPU feature that enlightens PEBS
to translate guest linear address through EPT, and facilitates handling
VM-Exits that occur when accessing PEBS records. More information can
be found in the December 2021 release of Intel's SDM, Volume 3,
18.9.5 "EPT-Friendly PEBS". This new hardware facility makes sure the
guest PEBS records will not be lost, which is available on Intel Ice Lake
Server platforms (and later).
KVM will check this field through perf_get_x86_pmu_capability() instead
of hard coding the CPU models in the KVM code. If it is supported, the
guest PEBS capability will be exposed to the guest. Guest PEBS can be
enabled when and only when "EPT-Friendly PEBS" is supported and
EPT is enabled.

There's two problems with the current amd_brs_adjust_period() code:
- it isn't in fact AMD specific and wil always adjust the period;
- it adjusts the period, while it should only adjust the event count,
resulting in repoting a short period.
Fix this by using x86_pmu.limit_period, this makes it specific to the
AMD BRS case and ensures only the event count is adjusted while the
reported period is unmodified.

On AMD Fam19h Zen3, the branch sampling (BRS) feature must be disabled before
entering low power and re-enabled (if was active) when returning from low
power. Otherwise, the NMI interrupt may be held up for too long and cause
problems. Stopping BRS will cause the NMI to be delivered if it was held up.
Define a perf_amd_brs_lopwr_cb() callback to stop/restart BRS. The callback
is protected by a jump label which is enabled only when AMD BRS is detected.
In all other cases, the callback is never called.

Add code to adjust the sampling event period when used with the Branch
Sampling feature (BRS). Given the depth of the BRS (16), the period is
reduced by that depth such that in the best case scenario, BRS saturates at
the desired sampling period. In practice, though, the processor may execute
more branches. Given a desired period P and a depth D, the kernel programs
the actual period at P - D. After P occurrences of the sampling event, the
counter overflows. It then may take X branches (skid) before the NMI is
caught and held by the hardware and BRS activates. Then, after D branches,
BRS saturates and the NMI is delivered. With no skid, the effective period
would be (P - D) + D = P. In practice, however, it will likely be (P - D) +
X + D. There is no way to eliminate X or predict X.

Add support for the AMD Fam19h 16-deep branch sampling feature as
described in the AMD PPR Fam19h Model 01h Revision B1. This is a model
specific extension. It is not an architected AMD feature.
The Branch Sampling (BRS) operates with a 16-deep saturating buffer in MSR
registers. There is no branch type filtering. All control flow changes are
captured. BRS relies on specific programming of the core PMU of Fam19h. In
particular, the following requirements must be met:
- the sampling period be greater than 16 (BRS depth)
- the sampling period must use a fixed and not frequency mode
BRS interacts with the NMI interrupt as well. Because enabling BRS is
expensive, it is only activated after P event occurrences, where P is the
desired sampling period. At P occurrences of the event, the counter
overflows, the CPU catches the interrupt, activates BRS for 16 branches until
it saturates, and then delivers the NMI to the kernel. Between the overflow
and the time BRS activates more branches may be executed skewing the period.
All along, the sampling event keeps counting. The skid may be attenuated by
reducing the sampling period by 16 (subsequent patch).
BRS is integrated into perf_events seamlessly via the same
PERF_RECORD_BRANCH_STACK sample format. BRS generates perf_branch_entry
records in the sampling buffer. No prediction information is supported. The
branches are stored in reverse order of execution. The most recent branch is
the first entry in each record.
No modification to the perf tool is necessary.
BRS can be used with any sampling event. However, it is recommended to use
the RETIRED_BRANCH_INSTRUCTIONS event because it matches what the BRS
captures.

The Goldmont plus and Tremont have LBR format V7. The V7 has LBR_INFO,
which is the same as LBR format V5. But V7 doesn't support TSX.
Without the patch, the associated misprediction and cycles information
in the LBR_INFO may be lost on a Goldmont plus platform.
For Tremont, the patch only impacts the non-PEBS events. Because of the
adaptive PEBS, the LBR_INFO is always processed for a PEBS event.
Currently, two different ways are used to check the LBR capabilities,
which make the codes complex and confusing.
For the LBR format V4 and earlier, the global static lbr_desc array is
used to store the flags for the LBR capabilities in each LBR format.
For LBR format V5 and V6, the current code checks the version number
for the LBR capabilities.
There are common LBR capabilities among LBR format versions. Several
flags for the LBR capabilities are introduced into the struct x86_pmu.
The flags, which can be shared among LBR formats, are used to check
the LBR capabilities. Add intel_pmu_lbr_init() to set the flags
accordingly at boot time.

In preparation to enable user counter access on arm64 and to move some
of the user access handling to perf core, create a common event flag for
user counter access and convert x86 to use it.
Since the architecture specific flags start at the LSB, starting at the
MSB for common flags.

- Cleanup of extable fixup handling to be more robust, which in turn
allows to make the FPU exception fixups more robust as well.
- Change the return code for signal frame related failures from explicit
error codes to a boolean fail/success as that's all what the calling
code evaluates.
- A large refactoring of the FPU code to prepare for adding AMX support:
- Distangle the public header maze and remove especially the misnomed
kitchen sink internal.h which is despite it's name included all over
the place.
- Add a proper abstraction for the register buffer storage (struct
fpstate) which allows to dynamically size the buffer at runtime by
flipping the pointer to the buffer container from the default
container which is embedded in task_struct::tread::fpu to a
dynamically allocated container with a larger register buffer.
- Convert the code over to the new fpstate mechanism.
- Consolidate the KVM FPU handling by moving the FPU related code into
the FPU core which removes the number of exports and avoids adding
even more export when AMX has to be supported in KVM. This also
removes duplicated code which was of course unnecessary different and
incomplete in the KVM copy.
- Simplify the KVM FPU buffer handling by utilizing the new fpstate
container and just switching the buffer pointer from the user space
buffer to the KVM guest buffer when entering vcpu_run() and flipping
it back when leaving the function. This cuts the memory requirements
of a vCPU for FPU buffers in half and avoids pointless memory copy
operations.
This also solves the so far unresolved problem of adding AMX support
because the current FPU buffer handling of KVM inflicted a circular
dependency between adding AMX support to the core and to KVM. With
the new scheme of switching fpstate AMX support can be added to the
core code without affecting KVM.
- Replace various variables with proper data structures so the extra
information required for adding dynamically enabled FPU features (AMX)
can be added in one place
- Add AMX (Advanved Matrix eXtensions) support (finally):
AMX is a large XSTATE component which is going to be available with
Saphire Rapids XEON CPUs. The feature comes with an extra MSR (MSR_XFD)
which allows to trap the (first) use of an AMX related instruction,
which has two benefits:
1) It allows the kernel to control access to the feature
2) It allows the kernel to dynamically allocate the large register
state buffer instead of burdening every task with the the extra 8K
or larger state storage.
It would have been great to gain this kind of control already with
AVX512.
The support comes with the following infrastructure components:
1) arch_prctl() to
- read the supported features (equivalent to XGETBV(0))
- read the permitted features for a task
- request permission for a dynamically enabled feature
Permission is granted per process, inherited on fork() and cleared
on exec(). The permission policy of the kernel is restricted to
sigaltstack size validation, but the syscall obviously allows
further restrictions via seccomp etc.
2) A stronger sigaltstack size validation for sys_sigaltstack(2) which
takes granted permissions and the potentially resulting larger
signal frame into account. This mechanism can also be used to
enforce factual sigaltstack validation independent of dynamic
features to help with finding potential victims of the 2K
sigaltstack size constant which is broken since AVX512 support was
added.
3) Exception handling for #NM traps to catch first use of a extended
feature via a new cause MSR. If the exception was caused by the use
of such a feature, the handler checks permission for that
feature. If permission has not been granted, the handler sends a
SIGILL like the #UD handler would do if the feature would have been
disabled in XCR0. If permission has been granted, then a new fpstate
which fits the larger buffer requirement is allocated.
In the unlikely case that this allocation fails, the handler sends
SIGSEGV to the task. That's not elegant, but unavoidable as the
other discussed options of preallocation or full per task
permissions come with their own set of horrors for kernel and/or
userspace. So this is the lesser of the evils and SIGSEGV caused by
unexpected memory allocation failures is not a fundamentally new
concept either.
When allocation succeeds, the fpstate properties are filled in to
reflect the extended feature set and the resulting sizes, the
fpu::fpstate pointer is updated accordingly and the trap is disarmed
for this task permanently.
4) Enumeration and size calculations
5) Trap switching via MSR_XFD
The XFD (eXtended Feature Disable) MSR is context switched with the
same life time rules as the FPU register state itself. The mechanism
is keyed off with a static key which is default disabled so !AMX
equipped CPUs have zero overhead. On AMX enabled CPUs the overhead
is limited by comparing the tasks XFD value with a per CPU shadow
variable to avoid redundant MSR writes. In case of switching from a
AMX using task to a non AMX using task or vice versa, the extra MSR
write is obviously inevitable.
All other places which need to be aware of the variable feature sets
and resulting variable sizes are not affected at all because they
retrieve the information (feature set, sizes) unconditonally from
the fpstate properties.
6) Enable the new AMX states
Note, this is relatively new code despite the fact that AMX support is in
the works for more than a year now.
The big refactoring of the FPU code, which allowed to do a proper
integration has been started exactly 3 weeks ago. Refactoring of the
existing FPU code and of the original AMX patches took a week and has
been subject to extensive review and testing. The only fallout which has
not been caught in review and testing right away was restricted to AMX
enabled systems, which is completely irrelevant for anyone outside Intel
and their early access program. There might be dragons lurking as usual,
but so far the fine grained refactoring has held up and eventual yet
undetected fallout is bisectable and should be easily addressable before
the 5.16 release. Famous last words...
Many thanks to Chang Bae and Dave Hansen for working hard on this and
also to the various test teams at Intel who reserved extra capacity to
follow the rapid development of this closely which provides the
confidence level required to offer this rather large update for inclusion
into 5.16-rc1.

integration has been started exactly 3 weeks ago. Refactoring of the
existing FPU code and of the original AMX patches took a week and has
been subject to extensive review and testing. The only fallout which
has not been caught in review and testing right away was restricted
to AMX enabled systems, which is completely irrelevant for anyone
outside Intel and their early access program. There might be dragons
lurking as usual, but so far the fine grained refactoring has held up
and eventual yet undetected fallout is bisectable and should be
easily addressable before the 5.16 release. Famous last words...
Many thanks to Chang Bae and Dave Hansen for working hard on this and
also to the various test teams at Intel who reserved extra capacity
to follow the rapid development of this closely which provides the
confidence level required to offer this rather large update for
inclusion into 5.16-rc1

PEBS-via-PT records contain a mask of applicable counters. To identify
which event belongs to which counter, a side-band event is needed. Until
now, there has been no side-band event, and consequently users were limited
to using a single event.
Add such a side-band event. Note the event is optimised to output only
when the counter index changes for an event. That works only so long as
all PEBS-via-PT events are scheduled together, which they are for a
recording session because they are in a single group.
Also no attribute bit is used to select the new event, so a new
kernel is not compatible with older perf tools. The assumption
being that PEBS-via-PT is sufficiently esoteric that users will not
be troubled by this.

The typical way to access branch record (e.g. Intel LBR) is via hardware
perf_event. For CPUs with FREEZE_LBRS_ON_PMI support, PMI could capture
reliable LBR. On the other hand, LBR could also be useful in non-PMI
scenario. For example, in kretprobe or bpf fexit program, LBR could
provide a lot of information on what happened with the function. Add API
to use branch record for software use.
Note that, when the software event triggers, it is necessary to stop the
branch record hardware asap. Therefore, static_call is used to remove some
branch instructions in this process.

A warning as below may be occasionally triggered in an ADL machine when

- Both runs on small cores.
- They have different adaptive PEBS configuration (PEBS_DATA_CFG).

Different from the big core, the small core requires the ACK right
before re-enabling counters in the NMI handler, otherwise a stale PEBS
record may be dumped into the later NMI handler, which trigger the
warning.
Add a new mid_ack flag to track the case. Add all PMI handler bits in
the struct x86_hybrid_pmu to track the bits for different types of
PMUs. Apply mid ACK for the small cores on an Alder Lake machine.
The existing hybrid() macro has a compile error when taking address of
a bit-field variable. Add a new macro hybrid_bit() to get the
bit-field value of a given PMU.

The counter value of a perf task may leak to another RDPMC task.
For example, a perf stat task as below is running on CPU 0.
perf stat -e 'branches,cycles' -- taskset -c 0 ./workload
In the meantime, an RDPMC task, which is also running on CPU 0, may read
the GP counters periodically. (The RDPMC task creates a fixed event,
but read four GP counters.)
$./rdpmc_read_all_counters
index 0x0 value 0x8001e5970f99
index 0x1 value 0x8005d750edb6
index 0x2 value 0x0
index 0x3 value 0x0
index 0x0 value 0x8002358e48a5
index 0x1 value 0x8006bd1e3bc9
index 0x2 value 0x0
index 0x3 value 0x0
It is a potential security issue. Once the attacker knows what the other
thread is counting. The PerfMon counter can be used as a side-channel to
attack cryptosystems.
The counter value of the perf stat task leaks to the RDPMC task because
perf never clears the counter when it's stopped.
Three methods were considered to address the issue.
- Unconditionally reset the counter in x86_pmu_del(). It can bring extra
overhead even when there is no RDPMC task running.
- Only reset the un-assigned dirty counters when the RDPMC task is
scheduled in via sched_task(). It fails for the below case.
Thread A Thread B
clone(CLONE_THREAD) --->
set_affine(0)
set_affine(1)
while (!event-enabled)
;
event = perf_event_open()
mmap(event)
ioctl(event, IOC_ENABLE); --->
RDPMC
Counters are still leaked to the thread B.
- Only reset the un-assigned dirty counters before updating the CR4.PCE
bit. The method is implemented here.
The dirty counter is a counter, on which the assigned event has been
deleted, but the counter is not reset. To track the dirty counters,
add a 'dirty' variable in the struct cpu_hw_events.
The security issue can only be found with an RDPMC task. To enable the
RDMPC, the CR4.PCE bit has to be updated. Add a
perf_clear_dirty_counters() right before updating the CR4.PCE bit to
clear the existing dirty counters. Only the current un-assigned dirty
counters are reset, because the RDPMC assigned dirty counters will be
updated soon.
After applying the patch,
$ ./rdpmc_read_all_counters
index 0x0 value 0x0
index 0x1 value 0x0
index 0x2 value 0x0
index 0x3 value 0x0
index 0x0 value 0x0
index 0x1 value 0x0
index 0x2 value 0x0
index 0x3 value 0x0
Performance
The performance of a context switch only be impacted when there are two
or more perf users and one of the users must be an RDPMC user. In other
cases, there is no performance impact.
The worst-case occurs when there are two users: the RDPMC user only
uses one counter; while the other user uses all available counters.
When the RDPMC task is scheduled in, all the counters, other than the
RDPMC assigned one, have to be reset.
Test results for the worst-case, using a modified lat_ctx as measured
on an Ice Lake platform, which has 8 GP and 3 FP counters (ignoring
SLOTS).
lat_ctx -s 128K -N 1000 processes 2
Without the patch:
The context switch time is 4.97 us
With the patch:
The context switch time is 5.16 us
There is ~4% performance drop for the context switching time in the
worst-case.

Alder Lake Hybrid system has two different types of core, Golden Cove
core and Gracemont core. The Golden Cove core is registered to
"cpu_core" PMU. The Gracemont core is registered to "cpu_atom" PMU.
The difference between the two PMUs include:
- Number of GP and fixed counters
- Events
- The "cpu_core" PMU supports Topdown metrics.
The "cpu_atom" PMU supports PEBS-via-PT.
The "cpu_core" PMU is similar to the Sapphire Rapids PMU, but without
PMEM.
The "cpu_atom" PMU is similar to Tremont, but with different events,
event_constraints, extra_regs and number of counters.
The mem-loads AUX event workaround only applies to the Golden Cove core.
Users may disable all CPUs of the same CPU type on the command line or
in the BIOS. For this case, perf still register a PMU for the CPU type
but the CPU mask is 0.
Current caps/pmu_name is usually the microarch codename. Assign the
"alderlake_hybrid" to the caps/pmu_name of both PMUs to indicate the
hybrid Alder Lake microarchitecture.

Hybrid PMUs have different events and formats. In theory, Hybrid PMU
specific attributes should be maintained in the dedicated struct
x86_hybrid_pmu, but it wastes space because the events and formats are
similar among Hybrid PMUs.
To reduce duplication, all hybrid PMUs will share a group of attributes
in the following patch. To distinguish an attribute from different
Hybrid PMUs, a PMU aware attribute structure is introduced. A PMU type
is required for the attribute structure. The type is internal usage. It
is not visible in the sysfs API.
Hybrid PMUs may support the same event name, but with different event
encoding, e.g., the mem-loads event on an Atom PMU has different event
encoding from a Core PMU. It brings issue if two attributes are
created for them. Current sysfs_update_group finds an attribute by
searching the attr name (aka event name). If two attributes have the
same event name, the first attribute will be replaced.
To address the issue, only one attribute is created for the event. The
event_str is extended and stores event encodings from all Hybrid PMUs.
Each event encoding is divided by ";". The order of the event encodings
must follow the order of the hybrid PMU index. The event_str is internal
usage as well. When a user wants to show the attribute of a Hybrid PMU,
only the corresponding part of the string is displayed.

Different hybrid PMUs have different PMU capabilities and events. Perf
should registers a dedicated PMU for each of them.
To check the X86 event, perf has to go through all possible hybrid pmus.
All the hybrid PMUs are registered at boot time. Before the
registration, add intel_pmu_check_hybrid_pmus() to check and update the
counters information, the event constraints, the extra registers and the
unique capabilities for each hybrid PMUs.
Postpone the display of the PMU information and HW check to
CPU_STARTING, because the boot CPU is the only online CPU in the
init_hw_perf_events(). Perf doesn't know the availability of the other
PMUs. Perf should display the PMU information only if the counters of
the PMU are available.
One type of CPUs may be all offline. For this case, users can still
observe the PMU in /sys/devices, but its CPU mask is 0.
All hybrid PMUs have capability PERF_PMU_CAP_HETEROGENEOUS_CPUS.
The PMU name for hybrid PMUs will be "cpu_XXX", which will be assigned
later in a separated patch.
The PMU type id for the core PMU is still PERF_TYPE_RAW. For the other
hybrid PMUs, the PMU type id is not hard code.
The event->cpu must be compatitable with the supported CPUs of the PMU.
Add a check in the x86_pmu_event_init().
The events in a group must be from the same type of hybrid PMU.
The fake cpuc used in the validation must be from the supported CPU of
the event->pmu.
Perf may not retrieve a valid core type from get_this_hybrid_cpu_type().
For example, ADL may have an alternative configuration. With that
configuration, Perf cannot retrieve the core type from the CPUID leaf
0x1a. Add a platform specific get_hybrid_cpu_type(). If the generic way
fails, invoke the platform specific get_hybrid_cpu_type().

capabilities for different hybrid PMUs. Perf should register a dedicated
pmu for each hybrid PMU.
Add a new struct x86_hybrid_pmu, which saves the dedicated pmu and
capabilities for each hybrid PMU.
The architecture MSR, MSR_IA32_PERF_CAPABILITIES, only indicates the
architecture features which are available on all hybrid PMUs. The
architecture features are stored in the global x86_pmu.intel_cap.
For Alder Lake, the model-specific features are perf metrics and
PEBS-via-PT. The corresponding bits of the global x86_pmu.intel_cap
should be 0 for these two features. Perf should not use the global
intel_cap to check the features on a hybrid system.
Add a dedicated intel_cap in the x86_hybrid_pmu to store the
model-specific capabilities. Use the dedicated intel_cap to replace
the global intel_cap for thse two features. The dedicated intel_cap
will be set in the following "Add Alder Lake Hybrid support" patch.
Add is_hybrid() to distinguish a hybrid system. ADL may have an
alternative configuration. With that configuration, the
X86_FEATURE_HYBRID_CPU is not set. Perf cannot rely on the feature bit.
Add a new static_key_false, perf_is_hybrid, to indicate a hybrid system.
It will be assigned in the following "Add Alder Lake Hybrid support"
patch as well.

Some platforms, e.g. Alder Lake, have hybrid architecture. In the same

Add perf core PMU support for the Intel Sapphire Rapids server, which is
the successor of the Intel Ice Lake server. The enabling code is based
on Ice Lake, but there are several new features introduced.
The event encoding is changed and simplified, e.g., the event codes
which are below 0x90 are restricted to counters 0-3. The event codes
which above 0x90 are likely to have no restrictions. The event
constraints, extra_regs(), and hardware cache events table are changed
accordingly.
A new Precise Distribution (PDist) facility is introduced, which
further minimizes the skid when a precise event is programmed on the GP
counter 0. Enable the Precise Distribution (PDist) facility with :ppp
event. For this facility to work, the period must be initialized with a
value larger than 127. Add spr_limit_period() to apply the limit for
:ppp event.
Two new data source fields, data block & address block, are added in the
PEBS Memory Info Record for the load latency event. To enable the
feature,
- An auxiliary event has to be enabled together with the load latency
event on Sapphire Rapids. A new flag PMU_FL_MEM_LOADS_AUX is
introduced to indicate the case. A new event, mem-loads-aux, is
exposed to sysfs for the user tool.
Add a check in hw_config(). If the auxiliary event is not detected,
return an unique error -ENODATA.
- The union perf_mem_data_src is extended to support the new fields.
- Ice Lake and earlier models do not support block information, but the
fields may be set by HW on some machines. Add pebs_no_block to
explicitly indicate the previous platforms which don't support the new
block fields. Accessing the new block fields are ignored on those
platforms.
A new store Latency facility is introduced, which leverages the PEBS
facility where it can provide additional information about sampled
stores. The additional information includes the data address, memory
auxiliary info (e.g. Data Source, STLB miss) and the latency of the
store access. To enable the facility, the new event (0x02cd) has to be
programed on the GP counter 0. A new flag PERF_X86_EVENT_PEBS_STLAT is
introduced to indicate the event. The store_latency_data() is introduced
to parse the memory auxiliary info.
The layout of access latency field of PEBS Memory Info Record has been
changed. Two latency, instruction latency (bit 15:0) and cache access
latency (bit 47:32) are recorded.
- The cache access latency is similar to previous memory access latency.
For loads, the latency starts by the actual cache access until the
data is returned by the memory subsystem.
For stores, the latency starts when the demand write accesses the L1
data cache and lasts until the cacheline write is completed in the
memory subsystem.
The cache access latency is stored in low 32bits of the sample type
PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_STRUCT.
- The instruction latency starts by the dispatch of the load operation
for execution and lasts until completion of the instruction it belongs
to.
Add a new flag PMU_FL_INSTR_LATENCY to indicate the instruction
latency support. The instruction latency is stored in the bit 47:32
of the sample type PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT_STRUCT.
Extends the PERF_METRICS MSR to feature TMA method level 2 metrics. The
lower half of the register is the TMA level 1 metrics (legacy). The
upper half is also divided into four 8-bit fields for the new level 2
metrics. Expose all eight Topdown metrics events to user space.

Intel Sapphire Rapids server will introduce 8 metrics events. Intel
Ice Lake only supports 4 metrics events. A perf tool user may mistakenly
use the unsupported events via RAW format on Ice Lake. The user can
still get a value from the unsupported Topdown metrics event once the
following Sapphire Rapids enabling patch is applied.
To enable the 8 metrics events on Intel Sapphire Rapids, the
INTEL_TD_METRIC_MAX has to be updated, which impacts the
is_metric_event(). The is_metric_event() is a generic function.
On Ice Lake, the newly added SPR metrics events will be mistakenly
accepted as metric events on creation. At runtime, the unsupported
Topdown metrics events will be updated.
Add a variable num_topdown_events in x86_pmu to indicate the available
number of the Topdown metrics event on the platform. Apply the number
into is_metric_event(). Only the supported Topdown metrics events
should be created as metrics events.
Apply the num_topdown_events in icl_update_topdown_event() as well. The

Perfmon-v4 counter freezing is fundamentally broken; remove this default
disabled code to make sure nobody uses it.
The feature is called Freeze-on-PMI in the SDM, and if it would do that,
there wouldn't actually be a problem, *however* it does something subtly
different. It globally disables the whole PMU when it raises the PMI,
not when the PMI hits.
This means there's a window between the PMI getting raised and the PMI
actually getting served where we loose events and this violates the
perf counter independence. That is, a counting event should not result
in a different event count when there is a sampling event co-scheduled.
This is known to break existing software (RR).

The new sample type requires collecting the ip. The code page size can

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.

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.

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 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

Add lbr_info into structure x86_pmu, and use it to replace the hardcoded

model-specific LBR is different from Architecture LBR. The MSR address
should be assigned at boot time. For now, only Sky Lake and later

Current LBR information in the structure x86_perf_task_context is stored
in a different format from the PEBS LBR record and Architecture LBR,
which prevents the sharing of the common codes.
Use the format of the PEBS LBR record as a unified format. Use a generic
name lbr_entry to replace pebs_lbr_entry.

An IA32_LBR_CTL is introduced for Architecture LBR to enable and config
LBR registers to replace the previous LBR_SELECT.
All the related members in struct cpu_hw_events and struct x86_pmu
have to be renamed.
Some new macros are added to reflect the layout of LBR_CTL.
The mapping from PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_* to the corresponding bits in
LBR_CTL MSR is saved in lbr_ctl_map now, which is not a const value.
The value relies on the CPUID enumeration.
For the previous model-specific LBR, most of the bits in LBR_SELECT
operate in the suppressed mode. For the bits in LBR_CTL, the polarity is
inverted.
For the previous model-specific LBR format 5 (LBR_FORMAT_INFO), if the
NO_CYCLES and NO_FLAGS type are set, the flag LBR_NO_INFO will be set to
avoid the unnecessary LBR_INFO MSR read. Although Architecture LBR also
has a dedicated LBR_INFO MSR, perf doesn't need to check and set the
flag LBR_NO_INFO. For Architecture LBR, XSAVES instruction will be used
as the default way to read the LBR MSRs all together. The overhead which
the flag tries to avoid doesn't exist anymore. Dropping the flag can
save the extra check for the flag in the lbr_read() later, and make the
code cleaner.

The LBR capabilities of Architecture LBR are retrieved from the CPUID

The type of task_ctx is hardcoded as struct x86_perf_task_context,
which doesn't apply for Architecture LBR. For example, Architecture LBR
doesn't have the TOS MSR. The number of LBR entries is variable. A new
struct will be introduced for Architecture LBR. Perf has to determine
the type of task_ctx at run time.
The type of task_ctx pointer is changed to 'void *', which will be
determined at run time.
The generic LBR optimization can be shared between Architecture LBR and
model-specific LBR. Both need to access the structure for the generic
LBR optimization. A helper task_context_opt() is introduced to retrieve
the pointer of the structure at run time.

To reduce the overhead of a context switch with LBR enabled, some
generic optimizations were introduced, e.g. avoiding restore LBR if no
one else touched them. The generic optimizations can also be used by
Architecture LBR later. Currently, the fields for the generic
optimizations are part of structure x86_perf_task_context, which will be
deprecated by Architecture LBR. A new structure should be introduced
for the common fields of generic optimization, which can be shared
between Architecture LBR and model-specific LBR.
Both 'valid_lbrs' and 'tos' are also used by the generic optimizations,
but they are not moved into the new structure, because Architecture LBR
is stack-like. The 'valid_lbrs' which records the index of the valid LBR
is not required anymore. The TOS MSR will be removed.
LBR registers may be cleared in the deep Cstate. If so, the generic
optimizations should not be applied. Perf has to unconditionally
restore the LBR registers. A generic function is required to detect the
reset due to the deep Cstate. lbr_is_reset_in_cstate() is introduced.
Currently, for the model-specific LBR, the TOS MSR is used to detect the
reset. There will be another method introduced for Architecture LBR
later.

When a guest wants to use the LBR registers, its hypervisor creates a guest
LBR event and let host perf schedules it. The LBR records msrs are
accessible to the guest when its guest LBR event is scheduled on
by the perf subsystem.
Before scheduling this event out, we should avoid host changes on
IA32_DEBUGCTLMSR or LBR_SELECT. Otherwise, some unexpected branch
operations may interfere with guest behavior, pollute LBR records, and even
cause host branches leakage. In addition, the read operation
on host is also avoidable.
To ensure that guest LBR records are not lost during the context switch,
the guest LBR event would enable the callstack mode which could
save/restore guest unread LBR records with the help of
intel_pmu_lbr_sched_task() naturally.
However, the guest LBR_SELECT may changes for its own use and the host
LBR event doesn't save/restore it. To ensure that we doesn't lost the guest
LBR_SELECT value when the guest LBR event is running, the vlbr_constraint
is bound up with a new constraint flag PERF_X86_EVENT_LBR_SELECT.

The hypervisor may request the perf subsystem to schedule a time window
to directly access the LBR records msrs for its own use. Normally, it would
create a guest LBR event with callstack mode enabled, which is scheduled
along with other ordinary LBR events on the host but in an exclusive way.
To avoid wasting a counter for the guest LBR event, the perf tracks its
hw->idx via INTEL_PMC_IDX_FIXED_VLBR and assigns it with a fake VLBR
counter with the help of new vlbr_constraint. As with the BTS event,
there is actually no hardware counter assigned for the guest LBR event.

Description of hardware operation
---------------------------------
The core AMD PMU has a 4-bit wide per-cycle increment for each
performance monitor counter. That works for most events, but
now with AMD Family 17h and above processors, some events can
occur more than 15 times in a cycle. Those events are called
"Large Increment per Cycle" events. In order to count these
events, two adjacent h/w PMCs get their count signals merged
to form 8 bits per cycle total. In addition, the PERF_CTR count
registers are merged to be able to count up to 64 bits.
Normally, events like instructions retired, get programmed on a single
counter like so:
PERF_CTL0 (MSR 0xc0010200) 0x000000000053ff0c # event 0x0c, umask 0xff
PERF_CTR0 (MSR 0xc0010201) 0x0000800000000001 # r/w 48-bit count
The next counter at MSRs 0xc0010202-3 remains unused, or can be used
independently to count something else.
When counting Large Increment per Cycle events, such as FLOPs,
however, we now have to reserve the next counter and program the
PERF_CTL (config) register with the Merge event (0xFFF), like so:
PERF_CTL0 (msr 0xc0010200) 0x000000000053ff03 # FLOPs event, umask 0xff
PERF_CTR0 (msr 0xc0010201) 0x0000800000000001 # rd 64-bit cnt, wr lo 48b
PERF_CTL1 (msr 0xc0010202) 0x0000000f004000ff # Merge event, enable bit
PERF_CTR1 (msr 0xc0010203) 0x0000000000000000 # wr hi 16-bits count
The count is widened from the normal 48-bits to 64 bits by having the
second counter carry the higher 16 bits of the count in its lower 16
bits of its counter register.
The odd counter, e.g., PERF_CTL1, is programmed with the enabled Merge
event before the even counter, PERF_CTL0.
The Large Increment feature is available starting with Family 17h.
For more details, search any Family 17h PPR for the "Large Increment
per Cycle Events" section, e.g., section 2.1.15.3 on p. 173 in this
version:
https://www.amd.com/system/files/TechDocs/56176_ppr_Family_17h_Model_71h_B0_pub_Rev_3.06.zip
Description of software operation
---------------------------------
The following steps are taken in order to support reserving and
enabling the extra counter for Large Increment per Cycle events:
1. In the main x86 scheduler, we reduce the number of available
counters by the number of Large Increment per Cycle events being
scheduled, tracked by a new cpuc variable 'n_pair' and a new
amd_put_event_constraints_f17h(). This improves the counter
scheduler success rate.
2. In perf_assign_events(), if a counter is assigned to a Large
Increment event, we increment the current counter variable, so the
counter used for the Merge event is removed from assignment
consideration by upcoming event assignments.
3. In find_counter(), if a counter has been found for the Large
Increment event, we set the next counter as used, to prevent other
events from using it.
4. We perform steps 2 & 3 also in the x86 scheduler fastpath, i.e.,
we add Merge event accounting to the existing used_mask logic.
5. Finally, we add on the programming of Merge event to the
neighbouring PMC counters in the counter enable/disable{_all}
code paths.
Currently, software does not support a single PMU with mixed 48- and
64-bit counting, so Large increment event counts are limited to 48
bits. In set_period, we zero-out the upper 16 bits of the count, so
the hardware doesn't copy them to the even counter's higher bits.
Simple invocation example showing counting 8 FLOPs per 256-bit/%ymm
vaddps instruction executed in a loop 100 million times:
perf stat -e cpu/fp_ret_sse_avx_ops.all/,cpu/instructions/ <workload>
Performance counter stats for '<workload>':
800,000,000 cpu/fp_ret_sse_avx_ops.all/u
300,042,101 cpu/instructions/u
Prior to this patch, the reported SSE/AVX FLOPs retired count would
be wrong.

AMD Family 17h processors and above gain support for Large Increment
per Cycle events. Unfortunately there is no CPUID or equivalent bit
that indicates whether the feature exists or not, so we continue to
determine eligibility based on a CPU family number comparison.
For Large Increment per Cycle events, we add a f17h-and-compatibles
get_event_constraints_f17h() that returns an even counter bitmask:
Large Increment per Cycle events can only be placed on PMCs 0, 2,
and 4 out of the currently available 0-5. The only currently
public event that requires this feature to report valid counts
is PMCx003 "Retired SSE/AVX Operations".
Note that the CPU family logic in amd_core_pmu_init() is changed
so as to be able to selectively add initialization for features
available in ranges of backward-compatible CPU families. This
Large Increment per Cycle feature is expected to be retained
in future families.
A side-effect of assigning a new get_constraints function for f17h
disables calling the old (prior to f15h) amd_get_event_constraints
implementation left enabled by commit e40ed1542d ("perf/x86: Add perf
support for AMD family-17h processors"), which is no longer
necessary since those North Bridge event codes are obsoleted.
Also fix a spelling mistake whilst in the area (calulating ->
calculating).

Implement intel_pmu_lbr_swap_task_ctx() method updating counters
of the events that requested LBR callstack data on a sample.
The counter can be zero for the case when task context belongs to
a thread that has just come from a block on a futex and the context
contains saved (lbr_stack_state == LBR_VALID) LBR register values.
For the values to be restored at LBR registers on the next thread's
switch-in event it swaps the counter value with the one that is
expected to be non zero at the previous equivalent task perf event
context.
Swap operation type ensures the previous task perf event context
stays consistent with the amount of events that requested LBR
callstack data on a sample.

If PEBS declares ability to output its data to Intel PT stream, use the
aux_output attribute bit to enable PEBS data output to PT. This requires
a PT event to be present and scheduled in the same context. Unlike the
DS area, the kernel does not extract PEBS records from the PT stream to
generate corresponding records in the perf stream, because that would
require real time in-kernel PT decoding, which is not feasible. The PMI,
however, can still be used.
The output setting is per-CPU, so all PEBS events must be either writing
to PT or to the DS area, therefore, in case of conflict, the conflicting
event will fail to schedule, allowing the rotation logic to alternate
between the PEBS->PT and PEBS->DS events.

westmere. All forms of BR_INST_RETIRED.* support PEBS. Therefore the constraint
mask should ignore the umask. The name of the macro INTEL_FLAGS_EVENT_CONSTRAINT()
hint that this is the case but it was not. That macros was checking both the
event code and event umask. Therefore, it was only matching on 0x00c4.
There are code+umask macros, they all have *UEVENT*.
This bug fixes the issue by checking only the event code in the mask.
Both single and range version are modified.

Add Icelake core PMU perf code, including constraint tables and the main
enable code.
Icelake expanded the generic counters to always 8 even with HT on, but a
range of events cannot be scheduled on the extra 4 counters.
Add new constraint ranges to describe this to the scheduler.
The number of constraints that need to be checked is larger now than
with earlier CPUs.
At some point we may need a new data structure to look them up more
efficiently than with linear search. So far it still seems to be
acceptable however.
Icelake added a new fixed counter SLOTS. Full support for it is added
later in the patch series.
The cache events table is identical to Skylake.
Compare to PEBS instruction event on generic counter, fixed counter 0
has less skid. Force instruction:ppp always in fixed counter 0.

Icelake extended the general counters to 8, even when SMT is enabled.
However only a (large) subset of the events can be used on all 8
counters.
The events that can or cannot be used on all counters are organized
in ranges.
A lot of scheduler constraints are required to handle all this.
To avoid blowing up the tables add event code ranges to the constraint
tables, and a new inline function to match them.

With adaptive PEBS the CPU can directly supply the LBR information,
so we don't need to read it again. But the LBRs still need to be
enabled. Add a special count to the cpuc that distinguishes these
two cases, and avoid reading the LBRs unnecessarily when PEBS is
active.

Adaptive PEBS is a new way to report PEBS sampling information. Instead
of a fixed size record for all PEBS events it allows to configure the
PEBS record to only include the information needed. Events can then opt
in to use such an extended record, or stay with a basic record which
only contains the IP.
The major new feature is to support LBRs in PEBS record.
Besides normal LBR, this allows (much faster) large PEBS, while still
supporting callstacks through callstack LBR. So essentially a lot of
profiling can now be done without frequent interrupts, dropping the
overhead significantly.
The main requirement still is to use a period, and not use frequency
mode, because frequency mode requires reevaluating the frequency on each
overflow.
The floating point state (XMM) is also supported, which allows efficient
profiling of FP function arguments.
Introduce specific drain function to handle variable length records.
Use a new callback to parse the new record format, and also handle the
STATUS field now being at a different offset.
Add code to set up the configuration register. Since there is only a
single register, all events either get the full super set of all events,
or only the basic record.

Starting from Icelake, XMM registers can be collected in PEBS record.
But current code only output the pt_regs.
Add a new struct x86_perf_regs for both pt_regs and xmm_regs. The
xmm_regs will be used later to keep a pointer to PEBS record which has
XMM information.
XMM registers are 128 bit. To simplify the code, they are handled like
two different registers, which means setting two bits in the register
bitmap. This also allows only sampling the lower 64bit bits in XMM.
The index of XMM registers starts from 32. There are 16 XMM registers.
So all reserved space for regs are used. Remove REG_RESERVED.
Add PERF_REG_X86_XMM_MAX, which stands for the max number of all x86
regs including both GPRs and XMM.
Add REG_NOSUPPORT for 32bit to exclude unsupported registers.
Previous platforms can not collect XMM information in PEBS record.
Adding pebs_no_xmm_regs to indicate the unsupported platforms.
The common code still validates the supported registers. However, it
cannot check model specific registers, e.g. XMM. Add extra check in
x86_pmu_hw_config() to reject invalid config of regs_user and regs_intr.
The regs_user never supports XMM collection.
The regs_intr only supports XMM collection when sampling PEBS event on
icelake and later platforms.

PEBS_REGS used as mask for the supported registers for large PEBS.
However, the mask cannot filter the sample_regs_user/sample_regs_intr
correctly.
(1ULL << PERF_REG_X86_*) should be used to replace PERF_REG_X86_*, which
is only the index.
Rename PEBS_REGS to PEBS_GP_REGS, because the mask is only for general

The flag PERF_X86_EVENT_COMMITTED is used to find uncommitted events
for which to call put_event_constraint() when scheduling fails.
These are the newly added events to the list, and must form, per
definition, the tail of cpuc->event_list[]. By computing the list
index of the last successfull schedule, then iteration can start there
and the flag is redundant.
There are only 3 callers of x86_schedule_events(), notably:
- x86_pmu_add()
- x86_pmu_commit_txn()
- validate_group()
For x86_pmu_add(), cpuc->n_events isn't updated until after
schedule_events() succeeds, therefore cpuc->n_events points to the
desired index.
For x86_pmu_commit_txn(), cpuc->n_events is updated, but we can
trivially compute the desired value with cpuc->n_txn -- the number of
events added in this transaction.
For validate_group(), we can make the rule for x86_pmu_add() work by
simply setting cpuc->n_events to 0 before calling schedule_events().

Pull x86 tsx fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"This update provides kernel side handling for the TSX erratum of Intel
Skylake (and later) CPUs.
On these CPUs Intel Transactional Synchronization Extensions (TSX)
functions can result in unpredictable system behavior under certain
circumstances.
The issue is mitigated with an microcode update which utilizes
Performance Monitoring Counter (PMC) 3 when TSX functions are in use.
This mitigation is enabled unconditionally by the updated microcode.
As a consequence the usage of TSX functions can cause corrupted
performance monitoring results for events which utilize PMC3. The
corruption is silent on kernels which have no update for this issue.
This update makes the kernel aware of the PMC3 utilization by the
microcode:
The microcode offers a possibility to enforce TSX abort which prevents
the malfunction and frees up PMC3. The enforced TSX abort requires the
TSX using application to have a software fallback path implemented;
abort handlers which solely retry the transaction will fail over and
over.
The enforced TSX abort request is issued by the kernel when:
- enforced TSX abort is enabled (PMU attribute)
- A performance monitoring request needs PMC3
When PMC3 is not longer used by the kernel the TSX force abort request
is cleared.
The enforced TSX abort mechanism is enabled by default and can be
controlled by the administrator via the new PMU attribute
'allow_tsx_force_abort'. This attribute is only visible when updated
microcode is detected on affected systems. Writing '0' disables the
enforced TSX abort mechanism, '1' enables it.
As a result of disabling the enforced TSX abort mechanism, PMC3 is
permanentely unavailable for performance monitoring which can cause
performance monitoring requests to fail or switch to multiplexing
mode"
* branch 'x86-tsx-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
perf/x86/intel: Implement support for TSX Force Abort
x86: Add TSX Force Abort CPUID/MSR
perf/x86/intel: Generalize dynamic constraint creation
perf/x86/intel: Make cpuc allocations consistent
Skylake (and later) will receive a microcode update to address a TSX
errata. This microcode will, on execution of a TSX instruction
(speculative or not) use (clobber) PMC3. This update will also provide
a new MSR to change this behaviour along with a CPUID bit to enumerate
the presence of this new MSR.
When the MSR gets set; the microcode will no longer use PMC3 but will
Force Abort every TSX transaction (upon executing COMMIT).
When TSX Force Abort (TFA) is allowed (default); the MSR gets set when
PMC3 gets scheduled and cleared when, after scheduling, PMC3 is
unused.
When TFA is not allowed; clear PMC3 from all constraints such that it
will not get used.
