Subject: [PATCH v8 0/9] Add metrics for neoverse-n2-v2
Changes since v7:
- Change pmu_core__find_same to pmu__find_core_pmu as suggested by Ian.
- Returned NAN when can't find a pmu or the value from */caps/slots is
zero, in perf_pmu__cpu_slots_per_cycle, as suggested by John.
- Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/1673601740-122788-1-git-send-email-renyu.zj@linux.alibaba.com/
Changes since v6:
- Split patch 1 into 3 smaller patches as suggested by Ian.
- Change perf_pmu__get_slots to perf_pmu__cpu_slots_per_cycle,
per John's suggestion;
- Return NAN instead of 0 in perf_pmu__cpu_slots_per_cycle weak
function, per John's suggestion;
- Factor out pmu_core__find_same function, per John's suggestion.
- Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/1673017529-1429208-1-git-send-email-renyu.zj@linux.alibaba.com/
Changes since v5:
- Add common topdownL1 metrics in sbsa.json as suggested by John;
- Correct PKI/MPKI ScaleUnit to 1PKI/1MPKI;
- Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/1672745976-2800146-1-git-send-email-renyu.zj@linux.alibaba.com/
Changes since v4:
- Add MPKI/PKI “ScaleUnit”;
- Add acked-by from Ian Rogers;
- Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/1671799045-1108027-1-git-send-email-renyu.zj@linux.alibaba.com/
Changes since v3:
- Add ipc_rate metric;
- Drop the PublicDescription;
- Describe PEutilization metrics in more detail;
- Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/1669310088-13482-1-git-send-email-renyu.zj@linux.alibaba.com/
Changes since v2:
- Correct the furmula of Branch metrics;
- Add more PE utilization metrics;
- Add more TLB metrics;
- Add “ScaleUnit” for some metrics;
- Add a newline at the end of the file;
- Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/1668411720-3581-1-git-send-email-renyu.zj@linux.alibaba.com/
Changes since v1:
- Corrected formula for topdown L1 due to wrong counts for stall_slot
and stall_slot_frontend;
- Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/1667214694-89839-1-git-send-email-renyu.zj@linux.alibaba.com/
This series does the following things:
The slots in each architecture may be different, so add #slots literal
to obtain the slots of different architectures, and the #slots can be
applied in the topdown metric. Currently, The #slots just support for
arm64, and other architectures will return NAN.
The metrics of topdown L1 are from ARM sbsa7.0 platform design doc[0],
D37-38, which are standard. So put them in the common file sbsa.json of
arm64 and add general metric support, so that other cores besides n2/v2
can also be reused.
Then add topdownL1 metric for neoverse-n2-v2, and due to the wrong count
of stall_slot and stall_slot_frontend on neoverse-n2, the real stall_slot
and real stall_slot_frontend need to subtract cpu_cycles, so overwrite
the "MetricExpr" for neoverse-n2.
Reference from ARM neoverse-n2 errata notice [1], D117.
Since neoverse-n2/neoverse-v2 does not yet support topdown L2, metricgroups
such as Cache, TLB, Branch, InstructionsMix, and PEutilization will be added
to further analysis of performance bottlenecks in the following patches.
Reference from ARM PMU guide [2][3].
