Subject: [PATCH V2 2/2] perf/x86/intel/ds: Use the size from each PEBS record
From: Kan Liang <kan.liang@...ux.intel.com>
The kernel warning for the unexpected PEBS record can also be observed
during a context switch, when the below commands are running in parallel
for a while on SPR.
while true; do perf record --no-buildid -a --intr-regs=AX -e
cpu/event=0xd0,umask=0x81/pp -c 10003 -o /dev/null ./triad; done &
while true; do perf record -o /tmp/out -W -d -e
'{ld_blocks.store_forward:period=1000000,
MEM_TRANS_RETIRED.LOAD_LATENCY:u:precise=2:ldlat=4}'
-c 1037 ./triad; done
*The triad program is just the generation of loads/stores.
The current PEBS code assumes that all the PEBS records in the DS buffer
have the same size, aka cpuc->pebs_record_size. It's true for the most
cases, since the DS buffer is always flushed in every context switch.
However, there is a corner case that breaks the assumption.
A system-wide PEBS event with the large PEBS config may be enabled
during a context switch. Some PEBS records for the system-wide PEBS may
be generated while the old task is sched out but the new one hasn't been
sched in yet. When the new task is sched in, the cpuc->pebs_record_size
may be updated for the per-task PEBS events. So the existing system-wide
PEBS records have a different size from the later PEBS records.
Two methods were considered to fix the issue.
One is to flush the DS buffer for the system-wide PEBS right before the
new task sched in. It has to be done in the generic code via the
sched_task() call back. However, the sched_task() is shared among
different ARCHs. The movement may impact other ARCHs, e.g., AMD BRS
requires the sched_task() is called after the PMU has started on a
ctxswin. The method is dropped.
The other method is implemented here. It doesn't assume that all the
PEBS records have the same size any more. The size from each PEBS record
is used to parse the record. For the previous platform (PEBS format < 4),
which doesn't support adaptive PEBS, there is nothing changed.
