Subject: [PATCH v2 0/4] Add perf interface to expose nvdimm

Patchset adds performance stats reporting support for nvdimm.
Added interface includes support for pmu register/unregister
functions. A structure is added called nvdimm_pmu to be used for
adding arch/platform specific data such as supported events, cpumask
pmu event functions like event_init/add/read/del.
User could use the standard perf tool to access perf
events exposed via pmu.

Added implementation to expose IBM pseries platform nmem*
device performance stats using this interface.

Result from power9 pseries lpar with 2 nvdimm device:
command:# perf list nmem

nmem0/cchwhcnt/ [Kernel PMU event]

...
nmem1/noopstat/ [Kernel PMU event]
nmem1/ponsecs/ [Kernel PMU event]

Patch1:
Introduces the nvdimm_pmu structure
Patch2:
Adds common interface to add arch/platform specific data
includes supported events, pmu event functions. It also
adds code for cpu hotplug support.
Patch3:
Add code in arch/powerpc/platform/pseries/papr_scm.c to expose
nmem* pmu. It fills in the nvdimm_pmu structure with event attrs
cpumask andevent functions and then registers the pmu by adding
callbacks to register_nvdimm_pmu.
Patch4:
Sysfs documentation patch

Changelog
---
PATCH v1 -> PATCH v2
- Fix hotplug code by adding pmu migration call
incase current designated cpu got offline. As
pointed by Peter Zijlstra.

- Removed the retun -1 part from cpu hotplug offline
function.

- Link to the previous patchset : https://lkml.org/lkml/2021/6/8/500

Subject: [PATCH v2 3/4] powerpc/papr_scm: Add perf interface support

Performance monitoring support for papr-scm nvdimm devices
via perf interface is added which includes addition of pmu
functions like add/del/read/event_init for nvdimm_pmu struture.

A new parameter 'priv' in added to the pdev_archdata structure to save
nvdimm_pmu device pointer, to handle the unregistering of pmu device.

papr_scm_pmu_register function populates the nvdimm_pmu structure
with events, cpumask, attribute groups along with event handling
functions. Finally the populated nvdimm_pmu structure is passed to
register the pmu device.
Event handling functions internally uses hcall to get events and
counter data.

Result in power9 machine with 2 nvdimm device:

Ex: List all event by perf list

Tested with the following scenarios:
1. Check dmesg for nmem PMU registered messages.
2. Listed nmem events using 'perf list and perf list nmem'
3. Ran 'perf stat' with single event, grouping events, events from same pmu,
different pmu and invalid events
4. Read from sysfs files, Writing in to sysfs files
5. While running nmem events with perf stat, offline cpu from the nmem?/cpumask

While running the above functionality worked as expected, no error messages seen
in dmesg.

Hi Nageswara,
Thanks for testing the patch-set.
There is a nit change which need to be done in patch 4(Documentation patch).
We need to update nvdimm mailing list from [email protected] to
[email protected].
I will make this change and send a new patch-set with your tested-by tag.

Thanks,
Kajol Jain
