| * percpu: make percpu symbols in oprofile uniqueTejun Heo2009-10-293-14/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch updates percpu related symbols in oprofile such that percpu symbols are unique and don't clash with local symbols. This serves two purposes of decreasing the possibility of global percpu symbol collision and allowing dropping per_cpu__ prefix from percpu symbols. * drivers/oprofile/cpu_buffer.c: s/cpu_buffer/op_cpu_buffer/ Partly based on Rusty Russell's "alloc_percpu: rename percpu vars which cause name clashes" patch.

* | oprofile: warn on freeing event buffer too earlyRobert Richter2009-10-091-10/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A race shouldn't happen since all workqueues or handlers are canceled or flushed before the event buffer is freed. A warning is triggered now if the buffer is freed too early. Also, this patch adds some comments about event buffer protection, reworks some code and adds code to clear buffer_pos during alloc and free of the event buffer.

* | oprofile: fix race condition in event_buffer freeDavid Rientjes2009-10-091-1/+13
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Looking at the 2.6.31-rc9 code, it appears there is a race condition in the event_buffer cleanup code path (shutdown). This could lead to kernel panic as some CPUs may be operating on the event buffer AFTER it has been freed. The attached patch solves the problem and makes sure CPUs check if the buffer is not NULL before they access it as some may have been spinning on the mutex while the buffer was being freed. The race may happen if the buffer is freed during pending reads. But it is not clear why there are races in add_event_entry() since all workqueues or handlers are canceled or flushed before the event buffer is freed.

* oprofile: Adding switch counter to oprofile statistic variablesRobert Richter2009-07-203-9/+8
| | | | | | | | | This patch moves the multiplexing switch counter from x86 code to common oprofile statistic variables. Now the value will be available and usable for all architectures.

* oprofile: Implement performance counter multiplexingJason Yeh2009-07-204-0/+133
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The number of hardware counters is limited. The multiplexing feature enables OProfile to gather more events than counters are provided by the hardware. This is realized by switching between events at an user specified time interval. A new file (/dev/oprofile/time_slice) is added for the user to specify the timer interval in ms. If the number of events to profile is higher than the number of hardware counters available, the patch will schedule a work queue that switches the event counter and re-writes the different sets of values into it. The switching mechanism needs to be implemented for each architecture to support multiplexing. This patch only implements AMD CPU support, but multiplexing can be easily extended for other models and architectures. There are follow-on patches that rework parts of this patch.

| * oprofile: use new data sample format for ibsRobert Richter2009-01-073-59/+35
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The new ring buffer implementation allows the storage of samples with different size. This patch implements the usage of the new sample format to store ibs samples in the cpu buffer. Until now, writing to the cpu buffer could lead to incomplete sampling sequences since IBS samples were transfered in multiple samples. Due to a full buffer, data could be lost at any time. This can't happen any more since the complete data is reserved in advance and then stored in a single sample. Signed-off-by: Robert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com>

| * oprofile: rework implementation of cpu buffer eventsRobert Richter2009-01-073-91/+102
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Special events such as task or context switches are marked with an escape code in the cpu buffer followed by an event code or a task identifier. There is one escape code per event. To make escape sequences also available for data samples the internal cpu buffer format must be changed. The current implementation does not allow the extension of event codes since this would lead to collisions with the task identifiers. To avoid this, this patch introduces an event mask that allows the storage of multiple events with one escape code. Now, task identifiers are stored in the data section of the sample. The implementation also allows the usage of custom data in a sample. As a side effect the new code is much more readable and easier to understand.
