Subject: [PATCH V7 1/4] perf/core: Add PERF_SAMPLE_DATA_PAGE_SIZE
From: Kan Liang <kan.liang@...ux.intel.com>
Current perf can report both virtual addresses and physical addresses,
but not the MMU page size. Without the MMU page size information of the
utilized page, users cannot decide whether to promote/demote large pages
to optimize memory usage.
Add a new sample type for the data MMU page size.
Current perf already has a facility to collect data virtual addresses.
A page walker is required to walk the pages tables and calculate the
MMU page size from a given virtual address.
On some platforms, e.g., X86, the page walker is invoked in an NMI
handler. So the page walker must be NMI-safe and low overhead. Besides,
the page walker should work for both user and kernel virtual address.
The existing generic page walker, e.g., walk_page_range_novma(), is a
little bit complex and doesn't guarantee the NMI-safe. The follow_page()
is only for user-virtual address.
Add a new function perf_get_page_size() to walk the page tables and
calculate the MMU page size. In the function:
- Interrupts have to be disabled to prevent any teardown of the page
tables.
- The MMU page size is calculated from the page table level.
The method should work for all architectures, but it has only been
verified on X86. Should there be some architectures, which support perf,
where the method doesn't work, it can be fixed later separately.
Reporting the wrong page size would not be fatal for the architecture.
