Subject: [RFC PATCH v3 0/2] perf stat: Add option to aggregate data based on the cache topology
Motivation behind this feature is to aggregate the data at the LLC level
for chiplet based processors which currently do not expose the chiplet
details in sysfs cpu topology information.
For the completeness of the feature, the series adds ability to
aggregate data at any cache level. Following is the example of the
output on a dual socket Zen3 processor with 2 x 64C/128T containing 8
chiplet per socket.
$ sudo perf stat --per-cache -a -e ls_dmnd_fills_from_sys.ext_cache_remote --\
taskset -c 0-15,64-79,128-143,192-207\
perf bench sched messaging -p -t -l 100000 -g 8
# Running 'sched/messaging' benchmark:
# 20 sender and receiver threads per group
# 8 groups == 320 threads run
Total time: 7.648 [sec]

The series also adds support for perf stat record and perf stat report
to aggregate data at various cache levels. Following is an example of
recording with aggregation at L2 level and reporting the same data with
aggregation at L3 level.
$ sudo perf stat record --per-cache=L2 -a -e ls_dmnd_fills_from_sys.ext_cache_remote --\
taskset -c 0-15,64-79,128-143,192-207\

The aggregate at S0-D0-L3-ID0 is the sum of S0-D0-L2-ID0 to S0-D0-L3-ID7
as L3 containing CPU0 contains the L2 instance of CPU0 to CPU7.
[New in v3 - Handling IDs differently compared to v2]
Cache IDs are now derived from the shared_cpus_list file in the cache
topology. This allows for --per-cache aggregation of data on a kernel
which does not expose the cache instance ID in the sysfs. Running perf
stat will give the following output on the same system with cache
instance ID hidden:
$ ls /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cache/index0/
coherency_line_size level number_of_sets physical_line_partition
shared_cpu_list shared_cpu_map size type uevent

This series makes breaking change when saving the aggregation details as
the cache level needs to be saved along with the aggregation method.
This RFC assumes that caches at same level will be shared by same set of
threads. The implementation will run into an issue if, say L1i is thread
local, but L1d is shared by the SMT siblings on the core. I'm seeking
clarification from the community about the same and potential solutions
if processors where such a scenario exist.
This series cleanly applies on top perf-tool branch from Arnaldo's tree
(https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux.git/log/?h=perf-tools)
at:
commit e8d018dd0257 ("Linux 6.3-rc3")
--
Changelog:
o v2->v3:
- Dropped patches 1 and 2 that saved and retrieved the cache instance
ID when saving the cache data.
- The above is unnecessary as the IDs are being derived from the first
online CPU in the cache domain for a given cache instance.
- Improvements to handling cases where a cache level is not present
but the level is allowed by MAX_CACHE_LVL.
- Updated details in cover letter.
o v1->v2
- Set cache instance ID to 0 if the file cannot be read.
- Fix cache level parsing function.
- Updated details in cover letter.
