Subject: [PATCH V5 00/25] Add Alder Lake support for perf (kernel)
Date:   Mon,  5 Apr 2021 08:10:42 -0700
Message-Id: <1617635467-181510-1-git-send-email-kan.liang@linux.intel.com>
Precedence: bulk

From: Kan Liang <kan.liang@linux.intel.com>

Changes since V4:
- Put the X86_HYBRID_CPU_TYPE_ID_SHIFT over the function where it is
  used (Boris) (Patch 2)
- Add Acked-by from Boris for Patch 1 & 2
- Fix a smatch warning, "allocate_fake_cpuc() warn: possible memory
  leak of 'cpuc'" (0-DAY test) (Patch 16)

Changes since V3:
- Check whether the supported_cpus is empty in allocate_fake_cpuc().
  A user may offline all the CPUs of a certain type. Perf should not
  create an event for that PMU. (Patch 16)
- Don't clear a cpuc->pmu when the cpu is offlined in intel_pmu_cpu_dead().
  We never unregister a PMU, even all the CPUs of a certain type are
  offlined. A cpuc->pmu should be always valid and unchanged. There is no
  harm to keep the pointer of the PMU. Also, some functions, e.g.,
  release_lbr_buffers(), require a valid cpuc->pmu for each possible CPU.
  (Patch 16)
- ADL may have an alternative configuration. With that configuration
  X86_FEATURE_HYBRID_CPU is not set. Perf cannot retrieve the core type
  from the CPUID leaf 0x1a either.
  Use the number of hybrid PMUs, which implies a hybrid system, to replace
  the check of the X86_FEATURE_HYBRID_CPU. (Patch 4)
  Introduce a platform specific get_hybrid_cpu_type to retrieve the core
  type if the generic one doesn't return a valid core type. (Patch 16 & 20)

Changes since V2:
- Don't show "hybrid_cpu" in /proc/cpuinfo (Boris) (Patch 1)
- Use get_this_hybrid_cpu_type() to replace get_hybrid_cpu_type() to
  avoid the trouble of IPIs. The new function retrieves the type of the
  current hybrid CPU. It's good enough for perf. (Dave) (Patch 2)
- Remove definitions for Atom and Core CPU types. Perf will define a
  enum for the hybrid CPU type in the perf_event.h (Peter) (Patch 2 & 16)
- Remove X86_HYBRID_CPU_NATIVE_MODEL_ID_MASK. Not used in the patch set
  (Kan)(Patch 2)
- Update the description of the patch 2 accordingly. (Boris) (Patch 2)
- All the hybrid PMUs are registered at boot time. (Peter) (Patch 16)
- Align all ATTR things. (Peter) (Patch 20)
- The patchset doesn't change the caps/pmu_name. The perf tool doesn't
  rely on it to distinguish the event list. The caps/pmu_name is only to
  indicate the microarchitecture, which is the hybrid Alder Lake for
  both PMUs.

Changes since V1:
- Drop all user space patches, which will be reviewed later separately.
- Don't save the CPU type in struct cpuinfo_x86. Instead, provide helper
  functions to get parameters of hybrid CPUs. (Boris)
- Rework the perf kernel patches according to Peter's suggestion. The
  key changes include,
  - Code style changes. Drop all the macro which names in capital
    letters.
  - Drop the hybrid PMU index, track the pointer of the hybrid PMU in
    the per-CPU struct cpu_hw_events.
  - Fix the x86_get_pmu() support
  - Fix the allocate_fake_cpuc() support
  - Fix validate_group() support
  - Dynamically allocate the *hybrid_pmu for each hybrid PMU

Alder Lake uses a hybrid architecture utilizing Golden Cove cores
and Gracemont cores. On such architectures, all CPUs support the same,
homogeneous and symmetric, instruction set. Also, CPUID enumerate
the same features for all CPUs. There may be model-specific differences,
such as those addressed in this patchset.

The first two patches enumerate the hybrid CPU feature bit and provide
a helper function to get the CPU type of hybrid CPUs. (The initial idea
[1] was to save the CPU type in a new field x86_cpu_type in struct
cpuinfo_x86. Since the only user of the new field is perf, querying the
X86_FEATURE_HYBRID_CPU at the call site is a simpler alternative.[2])
Compared with the initial submission, the below two concerns[3][4] are
also addressed,
- Provide a good use case, PMU.
- Clarify what Intel Hybrid Technology is and is not.

The PMU capabilities for Golden Cove core and Gracemont core are not the
same. The key differences include the number of counters, events, perf
metrics feature, and PEBS-via-PT feature. A dedicated hybrid PMU has to
be registered for each of them. However, the current perf X86 assumes
that there is only one CPU PMU. To handle the hybrid PMUs, the patchset
- Introduce a new struct x86_hybrid_pmu to save the unique capabilities
  from different PMUs. It's part of the global x86_pmu. The architecture
  capabilities, which are available for all PMUs, are still saved in
  the global x86_pmu. To save the space, the x86_hybrid_pmu is
  dynamically allocated.
- The hybrid PMU registration has been moved to the cpu_starting(),
  because only boot CPU is available when invoking the
  init_hw_perf_events().
- Hybrid PMUs have different events and formats. Add new structures and
  helpers for events attribute and format attribute which take the PMU
  type into account.
- Add a PMU aware version PERF_TYPE_HARDWARE_PMU and
  PERF_TYPE_HW_CACHE_PMU to facilitate user space tools

The uncore, MSR and cstate are the same between hybrid CPUs.
Don't need to register hybrid PMUs for them.

The generic code kernel/events/core.c is not hybrid friendly either,
especially for the per-task monitoring. Peter once proposed a
patchset[5], but it hasn't been merged. This patchset doesn't intend to
improve the generic code (which can be improved later separately). It
still uses the capability PERF_PMU_CAP_HETEROGENEOUS_CPUS for each
hybrid PMUs. For per-task and system-wide monitoring, user space tools
have to create events on all available hybrid PMUs. The events which are
from different hybrid PMUs cannot be included in the same group.
