Add a trace point for tlbie(l) (Translation Lookaside Buffer Invalidate
Entry (Local)) instructions.
The tlbie instruction has changed over the years, so not all versions
accept the same operands. Use the ISA v3 field operands because they are
the most verbose, we may change them in future.
Example output:
qemu-system-ppc-5371 [016] 1412.369519: tlbie:
tlbie with lpid 0, local 1, rb=67bd8900174c11c1, rs=0, ric=0 prs=0 r=0

Some tracepoints have a registration function that gets enabled when the
tracepoint is enabled. There may be cases that the registraction function
must fail (for example, can't allocate enough memory). In this case, the
tracepoint should also fail to register, otherwise the user would not know
why the tracepoint is not working.

If a cpu is hotplugged while the hcall trace points are active, it's
possible to hit a warning from RCU due to the trace points calling into
RCU from an offline cpu, eg:
RCU used illegally from offline CPU!
rcu_scheduler_active = 1, debug_locks = 1
Make the hypervisor tracepoints conditional by using
TRACE_EVENT_FN_COND.

This enables us to understand how many hash fault we are taking
when running benchmarks.
For ex:
-bash-4.2# ./perf stat -e powerpc:hash_fault -e page-faults /tmp/ebizzy.ppc64 -S 30 -P -n 1000
...
Performance counter stats for '/tmp/ebizzy.ppc64 -S 30 -P -n 1000':
1,10,04,075 powerpc:hash_fault
1,10,03,429 page-faults
30.865978991 seconds time elapsed
NOTE:
The impact of the tracepoint was not noticeable when running test. It was
within the run-time variance of the test. For ex:
without-patch:
--------------
Performance counter stats for './a.out 3000 300':
643 page-faults # 0.089 M/sec
7.236562 task-clock (msec) # 0.928 CPUs utilized
2,179,213 stalled-cycles-frontend # 0.00% frontend cycles idle
17,174,367 stalled-cycles-backend # 0.00% backend cycles idle

Knowing how long we spend in firmware calls is an important part of
minimising OS jitter.
This patch adds tracepoints to each OPAL call. If tracepoints are
enabled we branch out to a common routine that calls an entry and exit
tracepoint.
This allows us to write tools that monitor the frequency and duration
of OPAL calls, eg:
name count total(ms) min(ms) max(ms) avg(ms) period(ms)
OPAL_HANDLE_INTERRUPT 5 0.199 0.037 0.042 0.040 12547.545
OPAL_POLL_EVENTS 204 2.590 0.012 0.036 0.013 2264.899
OPAL_PCI_MSI_EOI 2830 3.066 0.001 0.005 0.001 81.166
We use jump labels if configured, which means we only add a single
nop instruction to every OPAL call when the tracepoints are disabled.

irq_entry, irq_exit, timer_interrupt_entry and timer_interrupt_exit
all do the same thing so use DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS to avoid duplicating
everything 4 times.
This saves quite a lot of space in both instruction text and data:

9265 19622 16 28903 70e7 arch/powerpc/kernel/irq.o

While most users of the hcall tracepoints will only want the opcode
and return code, some will want all the arguments. To avoid the
complexity of using varargs we pass a pointer to the register save
area, which contains all the arguments.

Add hcall_entry and hcall_exit tracepoints. This replaces the inline
assembly HCALL_STATS code and converts it to use the new tracepoints.
To keep the disabled case as quick as possible, we embed a status word
in the TOC so we can get at it with a single load. By doing so we
keep the overhead at a minimum. Time taken for a null hcall:
No tracepoint code: 135.79 cycles
Disabled tracepoints: 137.95 cycles
For reference, before this patch enabling HCALL_STATS resulted in a null
hcall of 201.44 cycles!

We can monitor the effectiveness of our power management of both the
kernel and hypervisor by probing the timer interrupt. For example, on
this box we see 10.37s timer interrupts on an idle core:
<idle>-0 [010] 3900.671297: timer_interrupt_entry: pt_regs=c0000000ce1e7b10
<idle>-0 [010] 3900.671302: timer_interrupt_exit: pt_regs=c0000000ce1e7b10
<idle>-0 [010] 3911.042963: timer_interrupt_entry: pt_regs=c0000000ce1e7b10
<idle>-0 [010] 3911.042968: timer_interrupt_exit: pt_regs=c0000000ce1e7b10
<idle>-0 [010] 3921.414630: timer_interrupt_entry: pt_regs=c0000000ce1e7b10
<idle>-0 [010] 3921.414635: timer_interrupt_exit: pt_regs=c0000000ce1e7b10
Since we have a 207MHz decrementer it will go negative and fire every 10.37s
even if Linux is completely idle.

This adds powerpc-specific tracepoints for interrupt entry and exit.
While we already have generic irq_handler_entry and irq_handler_exit
tracepoints there are cases on our virtualised powerpc machines where an
interrupt is presented to the OS, but subsequently handled by the hypervisor.
This means no OS interrupt handler is invoked.
Here is an example on a POWER6 machine with the patch below applied:
<idle>-0 [006] 3243.949840744: irq_entry: pt_regs=c0000000ce31fb10
<idle>-0 [006] 3243.949850520: irq_exit: pt_regs=c0000000ce31fb10
<idle>-0 [007] 3243.950218208: irq_entry: pt_regs=c0000000ce323b10
<idle>-0 [007] 3243.950224080: irq_exit: pt_regs=c0000000ce323b10
<idle>-0 [000] 3244.021879320: irq_entry: pt_regs=c000000000a63aa0
<idle>-0 [000] 3244.021883616: irq_handler_entry: irq=87 handler=eth0
<idle>-0 [000] 3244.021887328: irq_handler_exit: irq=87 return=handled
<idle>-0 [000] 3244.021897408: irq_exit: pt_regs=c000000000a63aa0
Here we see two phantom interrupts (no handler was invoked), followed
by a real interrupt for eth0. Without the tracepoints in this patch we
would have missed the phantom interrupts.
