Subject: [PATCH v3 0/4] Add mem_hops field in perf_mem_data_src structure
Date: Wed,  6 Oct 2021 19:36:50 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211006140654.298352-1-kjain@linux.ibm.com> (raw)

Patch set adds a new field called 'mem_hops' in the perf_mem_data_src structure
which can be used to represent intra-node/package or inter-node/off-package
details. This field is of size 3 bits where PERF_MEM_HOPS_{NA, 0..6} value
can be used to present different hop levels data.

Patch 1 of the patch-set adds a comment about current state of
PERF_MEM_LVL_* namespace and remove an extra line present in
perf_mem__lvl_scnprintf function.

Patch 2 & 3 adds tool and kernel side changes to add mem_hops field.

Patch 4 of the patch-set fix the data source encodings to represent
L2.1/L3.1 cache access data for powerpc platform.

Changelog:
v2 -> v3
- Since added field HOPS related to NUMA, update the data presented
  by HOPS_0 to denotes accesses from 'remote core, same node' as
  suggested by Peter Zijlstra.

- Link to the patchset v2: https://lkml.org/lkml/2021/10/5/271

v1 -> v2:
- Rather then adding new macros for L2.1/L3.1 (same chip, different
  core) entries as part of field lvlnum, we are introducing new field
  called 'mem_hops' which can be used to get hops
  level data(intra-chip/package or inter-chip/off-package details).
  As suggested by Peter Zijlstra.

- Using OnChip to denote data accesses from 'another core of same chip'
  is not too clear. Update it to 'remote core, same chip' as pointed by
  Michael Ellerman.

- Update the fix patch of correcting data source encodings to use new
  added field 'mem_hops'

- Link to the patchset v1: https://lkml.org/lkml/2021/9/4/37
