First and foremost, we can't currently generate PMU interrupts on OMAP4 in
mainline. There are some additional patches required for these to work:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-arm-kernel&m=131946761428296&w=2
However, as Stephane has pointed out here:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-omap&m=132585784125352&w=2
the interrupts still don't seem to work, even with the patches above
applied.
Ming Lei doesn't seem to be replying to email anymore, so maybe somebody
else on linux-omap could please help us? I'm hoping that we're just missing
some patches from somewhere, but it would be great if somebody could verify
this (and indeed, verify that the interrupts we're registering in the thread
above look sane).

If with the latest OProfile, `timer mode' is still reported then you should
check that you have CONFIG_HW_PERF_EVENTS enabled in your kernel. It still
won't work though, because of the problems I mentioned above.

Sorry, I am on a trip now and no pandboard at my hand, so I may have
time to verify
the latest mainline next week after I return home.
I remembered that last time I verified these patches on 3.2-rc2 and
3.2-rc2 next tree,
and perf did work well on my pandaboard.
Also seems there were reports that omap4 perf may not work on some specific
uboot version even with these patches.

If debug message from 'dmesg' can be provided, maybe we can find clue
about the problem.

Looks no obvious failure can be found from your 'dmesg'.
I have run upstream 3.2 kernel plus 6 omap4 pmu patches below and
found perf can work well on my panda board.
0001-arm-introduce-cross-trigger-interface-helpers.patch
0002-arm-pmu-allow-platform-specific-irq-enable-disable-h.patch
0003-arm-omap4-hwmod-introduce-emu-hwmod.patch or Benoit's debugss patch[2]

0005-arm-omap4-support-pmu.patch[4]
0006-arm-omap4-pmu-support-runtime-pm.patch[5]
Could you verify the above patches on 3.2 to see if perf can work well?
If it doesn't, I may share my u-boot and mlo for your test if you'd like to do.
BTW: #1 and #2 have been in Will's -next tree.
thanks,

But if you test omap4 perf against -next kernel, pmu won't work because
the commit[1] may put 'emu_sys_clkdm' clock domain into HW_AUTO mode,
so writing pmu register may not take effect.
I have found the similar problem on cam clock domain before[2].
CD_EMU is very simliar with CD_CAM in the point below:
CD_EMU has no static or module wake-up dependency with any other clock
domain of the device.[3]
So the patch[4] can make omap4 pmu work on -next tree.
Shilimkar, care to comment on the patch[4]?
thanks,

But if you test omap4 perf against -next kernel, pmu won't work because
the commit[1] may put 'emu_sys_clkdm' clock domain into HW_AUTO mode,
so writing pmu register may not take effect.
I have found the similar problem on cam clock domain before[2].
CD_EMU is very simliar with CD_CAM in the point below:
CD_EMU has no static or module wake-up dependency with any other clock
domain of the device.[3]
So the patch[4] can make omap4 pmu work on -next tree.
Shilimkar, care to comment on the patch[4]?
thanks,

Given that MARC is shutdown today, would you mind packing those patches
into a tarball and sending them to me directly?
When you mention Will's -next tree, are you talking about:

Either one is OK. If you use linus tree as base, you need to apply the #1 and
#2 patch manually.

It is perf/omap4 brach, you can pick up the two patches[1][2] directly from
the branch.

NAK.
You don't need this patch. What you saw on CAMERA was indeed
a known bug but emulation domain has no such issues.
So the accesses to emulation register should continue to work
with the clock-domain being kept under hardware supervision.

But why can this patch make omap4 pmu work? Without the patch,
there are no CTI interrupts generated for pmu irq.

Interesting. For me debugger works which also relies on Emulation domain.
Need to see why CTI is behaving like this.

Ming,
Ok, so I used Linus' tree @
It already includes patches #1 and #2. I applied 4-6.
Recompiled but my kernel does not boot, I don't see
anything on the serial console. Could be a broken
.config file. Could you send me your .config for Panda?
Thanks.

I don't think that the patches can cause your non boot, you
can try the linus tree kernel first, then try the patches.

Hi,
Ok some update on this.
With your .config file + 3.2.0 (Linus) + patch 3, 4, 5, 6, I get a kernel that
boots. It does recognize the PMU. However, it still does not count correctly
and I believe for the same reason.: no interrupts are delivered.
I run a cycle burner program on CPU0, I watch /proc/interrupts.
and then I run libpfm4 program that does per-cpu monitoring on CPU0 and
print the counts every second:
$ sudo ./syst_count -d 10 -p -c 0 -e cpu_cycles
<press CTRL-C to quit before 10s time limit>

You clearly see that after 4s you've reached the 32-bit limit of the
counter and then you wrap around.
It should show 5 billions or so cycles. Over the entire run, no
arm-pmu interrupt was delivered according
to /proc/interrupts.
I guess you can test the same condition using perf directly, use a
program that burns cycles
for a know duration. Try < 4s and then > 4s. I use 1s vs. 10s and I
expect the count to be
10x larger in the latter test case. If it's not then, interrupts are
not coming in,

Hi,
Ok some update on this.
With your .config file + 3.2.0 (Linus) + patch 3, 4, 5, 6, I get a kernel that
boots. It does recognize the PMU. However, it still does not count correctly
and I believe for the same reason.: no interrupts are delivered.
I run a cycle burner program on CPU0, I watch /proc/interrupts.
and then I run libpfm4 program that does per-cpu monitoring on CPU0 and
print the counts every second:
$ sudo ./syst_count -d 10 -p -c 0 -e cpu_cycles
<press CTRL-C to quit before 10s time limit>

They are already in 3.2.0. Unless I am mistaken.

After a double check, the two patches are not merged to 3.2, but have
been merged to the latest linus tree and can be seen in 3.3-rc1.
Also the commit 3c50729b(ARM: OMAP4: PM: Initialise all the clockdomains
to supported states) has been merged to linus tree too.
So if you just tested the latest linus tree simply, you need to apply
the patch[1]
(I have mentioned the problem in the thread.)

Changing LMO, u-boot.bin did not help. Even with perf top I get no
interrupts.
My Linus tree is at commit fa1952b:
[6] 11891e1 arm: omap4: pmu: support runtime pm
[5] 25fab8a arm: omap4: support pmu
[4] fddef77 arm: omap4: create pmu device via hwmod
fa1952b ARM: OMAP4: hwmod data: Add support for the debug modules
ccb19d2 Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net
c3b5003 tg3: Fix single-vector MSI-X code
I think [1] had conflicts when applying it to the tree.

Just did a fresh clone of Linus' tree:
$ git log --oneline | fgrep 'allow platform specific'
e0516a6 arm: pmu: allow platform specific irq enable/disable handling
$ git log --oneline | fgrep 'cross trigger'
14eec97 arm: introduce cross trigger interface helpers
Unless you were referring to a different pair of patches.

Just did a fresh clone of Linus' tree:
$ git log --oneline | fgrep 'allow platform specific'
e0516a6 arm: pmu: allow platform specific irq enable/disable handling
$ git log --oneline | fgrep 'cross trigger'
14eec97 arm: introduce cross trigger interface helpers
Unless you were referring to a different pair of patches.

Did this lead anywhere in the end? It seems as though Ming Lei has a working
setup but Stephane is unable to replicate it, despite applying the necessary
patches and trying an updated bootloader.
Drastic suggestion: Stephane, could you try a kernel *binary* from Ming Lei?
If that works then you're probably just missing a patch. If it doesn't, then
there must be something different between your boards.

Did this lead anywhere in the end? It seems as though Ming Lei has a working
setup but Stephane is unable to replicate it, despite applying the necessary
patches and trying an updated bootloader.
Drastic suggestion: Stephane, could you try a kernel *binary* from Ming Lei?
If that works then you're probably just missing a patch. If it doesn't, then
there must be something different between your boards.

Sure, send me the binary+initrd and I can try it out.

With the patches listed above plus the one in [1], I get PMU interrupts.
However, unless I restrict the profiled process to one CPU
(taskset 1 perf record ...), I get a panic in armpmu_event_update() with
the 'event' argument being null when called from armv7pmu_handle_irq().

Great, thanks for trying this out. Which version of the kernel were you
using? I fixed a bunch of NULL pointer derefs. during the 3.2 window, but if
you were using an -rc kernel you have have hit one of them.

This was with the Linaro tilt-3.2 kernel from
git://git.linaro.org/landing-teams/working/ti/kernel.git, commit
73e2c294444f209d281f7cd10b52b53b087e74f1. Maybe one of the many patches
it has on top of 3.2 is to blame.

Perhaps, or (more likely) the interrupt affinity for the CTI isn't working
properly and the interrupt is always delivered to CPU0. I'll keep this in
mind in case we get any more reports like this.

Perhaps, or (more likely) the interrupt affinity for the CTI isn't working
properly and the interrupt is always delivered to CPU0. I'll keep this in
mind in case we get any more reports like this.

It works whichever CPU I pin it to (i.e. taskset 2 also works).
FWIW, my /proc/interrupts looks like this when perf is running:

In fact, I don't think stephane has tried the patch in the link[1] and
reported the
test result, even though I have asked him to do it for several times.

The patch is required for 3.3-rc1 in case that omap4 pmu works well.

Hi,
Ok, with the one-line patch [1], this works much better now.
No more wrap around a 4 billion cycles.
Sampling is okay, though I noticed it tends to not get the
correct number of samples for a controlled run:
$ perf record -e cycles -c 1009213 noploop 10
noploop for 10 seconds
$ perf report -D | tail -20
cycles stats:
TOTAL events: 9938
MMAP events: 13
COMM events: 2
EXIT events: 2
THROTTLE events: 12
UNTHROTTLE events: 12
SAMPLE events: 9897
Should not get throttled samples. Should get abour 10k samples
but only seeing 9897. The max_rate limit is way higher
than what I set the period (1000 samples/sec). But then,
is 3.2.0 throttling is broken. I posted a patch to fix that
yesterday. I will try with my patch applied as well.
Will do some more testing and update to the latest 3.3.0-rc1.
For now this is with 3.2.0 Linus tree.

Hurrah! Thanks Mans and Ming Lei for helping with this. Unfortunately, I
remember Santosh had objections to this patch so that needs to be resolved.

Ok. Note that on ARM the PMU generates a standard IRQ (i.e. not an NMI) so
you may miss samples if they occur during critical kernel sections (and if
you look at a profile, spin_unlock_irqrestore will be quite high).
A7 and A15 have the ability to filter counters based on privilege level, so

Hurrah! Thanks Mans and Ming Lei for helping with this. Unfortunately, I

Ok. Note that on ARM the PMU generates a standard IRQ (i.e. not an NMI) so
you may miss samples if they occur during critical kernel sections (and if
you look at a profile, spin_unlock_irqrestore will be quite high).
A7 and A15 have the ability to filter counters based on privilege level, so
you can get more accurate userspace counts there.

Ok, that's better. Need to update libpfm4 for A15 with priv levels then!

and your result is almost 99% of the way there :)
There are also potential overheads from the PMU interrupts themselves, since
there is a latency between overflow and taking the interrupt and then
between there are actually reading the counter (they continue to count after
overflow).
That said, if you see any bugs in the code please do shout!

How do you handle that in libpfm4? On ARM, the event encodings remain the same,
you just need to set some extra bits to determine which levels are included or
excluded (you can do this with the perf tool by using the :{u,k,h} suffix on an
event description).

You may have bursts of interrupts (samples). I'll check on that this week-end.

It depends what you call the encoding? If the priv level can be encoded in the
attr->config field, then that's easy. If it needs to be set somewhere else, then
we need to figure out how you encode it in the attr struct. Either in some other
bits in attr->config or use attr->config1, for instance. You tell me.

Ok, thanks. Keep in mind that you probably have variable rate clocks, which
will affect the cycle counter frequency.

The way it's done with perf is to set the exclude{user,kernel,hv} fields in
the attr. The ARM perf backend then translates these into the relevant bits
which get orred into the config_base before hitting the hardware.

Well, that's also how we do it with libpfm4 on X86. This is because
with perf_events,
the exclude_* fields have priority over what you set in the attr->config field.

Hi,
Ok, so I did a few more tests and there is a serious issue when sampling
in frequency mode (the default). I noticed wrong number of samples, so
I investigated this some more and instrumented the perf_event kernel code.

Although the patch fixes PMU interrupts, it breaks the timer tick logic somehow.
The perf problem is related to timer tick.
I am hoping that the tradeoff is not:
PMU interrupts but broken timer ticks
vs.
No PMU interrupts but working timer ticks

Hi,
Ok, so I did a few more tests and there is a serious issue when sampling
in frequency mode (the default). I noticed wrong number of samples, so
I investigated this some more and instrumented the perf_event kernel code.
I found some erratic timer ticks causing broken period adjustments.
In fact, the problem is visible using top.
I am running a noploop program on CPU0 and nothing else besides top.
The noploop program does: for(;;);. That is 100% user. On a 2-way
system otherwise idle, I expect top to return 50% user 50% idle.

Looks no such issue on my board with 3.3-rc1 plus the 5 extra pmu/emu patches.

The patch should not affect timer tick logic, and what the patch does is

Ok, let me try again with 3.3.0-rc1, that was with 3.2.0.
The only thing that changed was that one line and it made
a big difference.

In fact, I think the only effect of the patch is to enable pmu
interrupt handling,
which may cause so much difference?
Also maybe you should put 'noploop' to run on CPU1 and you may observe
a more accurate result of 'top'.
On ARM, almost handling of all IRQs from gic is run on CPU0 at default,
which may cause your issue.

With 3.3.0-rc1, if I revert the clockdomain patch, I get the same result.
So it must be coming from somewhere else, as you suggested.
If the processor was spending time processing interrupts, then this would be
accounted for in as sys time. But that's not what I observe here. It's either
idle or user. That line, leads me to believe that the processor can only run
my program for 30% of the time. The rest is spent idling even though my
program is non-blocking. How could that be possible? Power-saving?

Ok, when I pin my program to CPU1, and press 1 in top I get:

3789 eranian 20 0 2184 1056 804 R 2 0.1 0:01.22 top
Which gives me the right answer. But in 'collapsed mode', press 1 again,
the aggregate value is bogus. Could be wrong math in top. Ok, that was
a false alarm then. Thanks for the help.
Still need to investigate why the frequency mode does
not yield the correct number of samples even with low frequency.
$ taskset -c 1 perf record -e cycles -F 100 noploop 10
$ perf report -D | tail -20
Aggregated stats:
TOTAL events: 475
MMAP events: 11
COMM events: 2
EXIT events: 2
SAMPLE events: 460
cycles stats:
TOTAL events: 475
MMAP events: 11
COMM events: 2
EXIT events: 2
SAMPLE events: 460
460 samples is way too low. Should be 100x10 = 1000 samples or close to it.

Ok, when I pin my program to CPU1, and press 1 in top I get:

Which gives me the right answer. But in 'collapsed mode', press 1 again,
the aggregate value is bogus. Could be wrong math in top. Ok, that was
a false alarm then. Thanks for the help.
Still need to investigate why the frequency mode does
not yield the correct number of samples even with low frequency.
$ taskset -c 1 perf record -e cycles -F 100 noploop 10
$ perf report -D | tail -20
Aggregated stats:
TOTAL events: 475
MMAP events: 11
COMM events: 2
EXIT events: 2
SAMPLE events: 460
cycles stats:
TOTAL events: 475
MMAP events: 11
COMM events: 2
EXIT events: 2
SAMPLE events: 460
460 samples is way too low. Should be 100x10 = 1000 samples or close to it.

Can you stick noploop.c somewhere (I'm lazy :) and I'll try it on one of my
A9 boards?

Will,
There you go, no attachment, not sure the omap list
supports this.
There is something quite interesting to observe.
While I run perf record -e cycles -F 100 noploop 10, I watch
/proc/interrupts. The number of interrupts is way lower than
expected. Therefore the number of samples is way too low:
$ perf record -e cycles -F 100 noploop 10
$ perf report -D | tail -20
cycles stats:
TOTAL events: 535
MMAP events: 11
COMM events: 2
EXIT events: 2
SAMPLE events: 520
The delta in /proc/interrupts on CPU1 is 520 interrupts.
So looks like the frequency adjustment which is hooked off of the
timer tick is either not called at each timer tick, the timer ticks are
not at regular interval, or the math is wrong.
If I go with the fixed period mode:
$ perf stat -e cycles noploop 10
noploop for 10 seconds
Performance counter stats for 'noploop 10':
10079156960 cycles # 0.000 GHz
10.004547117 seconds time elapsed
That means, if I want 100 samples/sec: = 10079156960/(10*100)=10079157
$ perf record -e cycles -c 10079157 noploop 10
$ perf report -D | tail -20
cycles stats:
TOTAL events: 1003
MMAP events: 11
COMM events: 2
EXIT events: 2
THROTTLE events: 1
UNTHROTTLE events: 1
SAMPLE events: 986
Now, we're getting the right answer!
So with the right sampling period, everything works fine.
We need to elucidate what's going on in perf_event_task_tick().
I have tried with my throttling fix and it did not help. We are
not subject to throttling with such a low rate.
noploop.c:
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <signal.h>
#include <inttypes.h>
#include <unistd.h>

Yes, that is about half of what you'd expect. Running on my A9 platform
(vexpress) I get:
$ perf record -e cycles -F 100 noploop 10
$ perf report -D | tail -20
cycles stats:
TOTAL events: 1007
MMAP events: 18
COMM events: 2
EXIT events: 2
SAMPLE events: 985

My hunch is that that the interval is probably varying, but I don't know much
about OMAP4 and its clocks.

Just to confirm, for me:
$ perf stat -e cycles ./noploop 10
noploop for 10 seconds
Performance counter stats for './noploop 10':
4001163930 cycles # 0.000 GHz
10.006534024 seconds time elapsed
$ perf record -e cycles -c 4001163 ./noploop 10
$ perf report -D | tail -20
Aggregated stats:
TOTAL events: 1020
MMAP events: 18
COMM events: 2
EXIT events: 2
SAMPLE events: 998
cycles stats:
TOTAL events: 1020
MMAP events: 18
COMM events: 2
EXIT events: 2
SAMPLE events: 998
which is close enough :)

Ok. I would start by looking at the clock ticks if I were you, since this
seems to be alright on my board.

Glad you tested this. At least, it seems the generic perf_event code
is allright.
I agree with you, something is fishy with the clocks. Just out of
curiosity, what is
the HZ value for your board? On my Panda it's 128Hz.

Glad you tested this. At least, it seems the generic perf_event code
is allright.
I agree with you, something is fishy with the clocks. Just out of
curiosity, what is
the HZ value for your board? On my Panda it's 128Hz.

Also looks no any irq handler functions can be observed at a profile even
though they may be run at a very high frequency.
So could we configure ARM PMU interrupt as FIQ to address the above issues?

I thought about that in the past but the problem is finding hardware which
allows this. It probably means that you need a second GIC which can route
interrupts onto the FIQ line into the CPU. Given that FIQ is usually claimed
for secure interrupts, there could also still be latency issues here.
A better (read: highly invasive) way to fix this is using interrupt
priorities at the distributor. You then have to hack the interrupt disabling
code so that it disables interrupts below a certain priority if they occur
during an IRQ-off section. The re-enabling code would then have to undo
those decisions and allow the interrupts to be serviced. Pretty nasty stuff.

Did you ever get to the bottom of this? This change really is required in
order to generate PMU interrupts with the CTI and I don't know of any
alternative to the above.

Sorry I lost track of this one. There is one relevant patch in Kevin's queue
for 3.4/fixes. [1] which I generated for perf time stamp issue.
Can you try that patch and see if it helps the CTI issue as well ? There
is an outside chance that it might help. If it doesn't, we should commit
Ming Lei patch.

It seems that they're both needed to get reliable PMU operation. Without the
CLKDM_CAN_SWSUP fix, no interrupts are generated at all. Without the patch
below ([1]), it seems that we don't generate enough. So it looks like we
need them both.

I see. Can you please confirm if it is still the case with [1].
If yes then am nou sure how to proceed. because permanently setting
EMU CD to CLKDM_CAN_SWSUP will break PM.

Right, ignore my previous comment, I was using a vanilla 3.3 kernel without
realising and therefore what I thought were PMU/CTI interrupts were actually
just from a timer. Sorry for the confusion.
So I've gone back to basics. Here is a branch containing what I believe
should be all the patches required for the OMAP4 PMU:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/will/linux.git perf/omap4
I've omitted the SWSUSP patch since you say it breaks pm, which is clearly not
acceptable.
The problem is, trying to boot this on my pandaboard results in a hang (see
dmesg below). Even worse, the problem isn't easily bisectable since rebuilding
a working image can give you something that no longer boots and I haven't found
a reliable way to cause the lockup.
I'll take JTAG for a whirl to see where we are. If anything looks wrong in
my dmesg, please shout (there are plenty of things in there that look like
they've gone awry).

I don't see anything abnormal in below boot log. Not sure why it

Not sure why it hangs for you, but it worked for me both with your
branch on v3.3 and merging with v3.4-rc1[1]
Below is a Kconfig snippet[2] which I append to my .config after
building omap2plus_defconfig in order to build a perf/trace/PMU enabled
kernel for my Panda.

Thanks for testing that. It turns out that updating my x-loader (it was
pretty ancient) fixed the boot hang, though I'm not sure I want to know why!

Right. Can you confirm whether the PMU/CTI interrupts fire for you please?
Just run perf top and look at /proc/interrupts while it's running. You
should see a couple of arm-pmu entries in there and hopefully numbers > 0.
For me, my earlier mis-diagnosis has turned out to be true and I can only
see PMU interrupts if I apply the SWSUSP patch, which Santosh says will
break pm.
Cheers,
Will

Ah, I see now (I'm a perf newbie.)
Indeed, like you, I have to change the EMU clock domain to SWSUP[1] in
order to see any interrupts and see anything in perf top. This isn't
really a mergeable workaround, so I'll look into this a little closer
with Santosh to see what we can do once we fully understand the HW
problem.

Part of the problem is that the clockdomain data for the emu_sys
clockdomain is wrong. Here's something to try to fix it. It might just
be enough to get it to work.

Might be worth booting with initcall_debug on the kernel command line.
That will probably be easier than dealing with JTAG.

I tested the patch just now, but unfortunately, the change still doesn't make
PMU to generate IRQs.
Mark the flags as CLKDM_CAN_SWSUP may work, but PMU will stop producing
IRQs after resuming from suspend.

JTAG is unusable anyway because it requires a new MLO, which makes the
problem disappear.
Using initcall_debug I tracked the hang down to cti_unlock:
val = __raw_readl(base + LOCKSTATUS);
causes the board to die, presumably because CoreSight isn't in a fit state
to be poked.

Hmm, doesn't seem to work but I do see the following in dmesg when I try to
use perf:
powerdomain: waited too long for powerdomain emu_pwrdm to complete transition
which is new with your patch.

Sorry to nag, but does anybody have a clue where to go from here? I can
start digging in the OMAP PM code, but it's all new territory for me.

Unfortunately, digging in the code isn't going to help much.
We've been trying to get our heads around some undocumented reset
behavior for the various debug IPs in OMAP.
After a little digging and clarification from HW designers, it appears
that if we allow the EMU clockdomain to idle, a full reset of the debug
IPs is done. That means there are two solutions to this problem:
1) don't ever alow EMU clockdomain to idle.
2) modify CTI driver to re-init for every use.
Obviously (1) is the easiet, and hacks for that have already been
posted, but that has pretty significant impacts on power savings. (2)
is the right solution to merge upstream, but needs writing.
For (2), using runtime PM methods in the driver would be the simplest
here since the ->runtime_resume method will be called every time the
device is about to be used.

I did a little playing around with this today and I think that I have figured out why this was not working (see below). Please can you try the following patch? I tried this on top of your series for perf/omap4.
Paul, FYI. If this works for Will then I can re-base on top of the latest linux-omap and submit to the mailing list.
Also, the above error about the emu_pwrdm is odd too. I noticed that the emu_pwrdm is always in the transitioning state. And when I say always, I mean that even if I check the power domain state while u-boot is running it is in the transitioning state. So even before the kernel starts.

Subject: [PATCH] ARM: OMAP4: Disable auto enable for EMU CLKDM
The flag CLKDM_CAN_HWSUP allows the clock-domain to automatically transition
to the enabled and disabled state. This means that as soon as we force a
software wake-up on the clock domain, the clock domain will be allowed to idle
and put back into the hardware auto state. For the EMU clock domain this is not
what we want. We want to keep the clock domain in the software wakeup state
while the clock domain is being used and put it back in to the hardware auto
state when we have finished using the clock domain.

Subject: [PATCH] ARM: OMAP4: Disable auto enable for EMU CLKDM
The flag CLKDM_CAN_HWSUP allows the clock-domain to automatically transition
to the enabled and disabled state. This means that as soon as we force a
software wake-up on the clock domain, the clock domain will be allowed to idle
and put back into the hardware auto state. For the EMU clock domain this is not
what we want. We want to keep the clock domain in the software wakeup state
while the clock domain is being used and put it back in to the hardware auto
state when we have finished using the clock domain.

With this patch, how is the clkdm ever idled?
IIUC, your patch will get PMU interrupts working, but similarily to
previous patches in this thread, it works because it *never* allows the
EMU clkdm to idle. This is not a mergeable solution because it will not
allow CORE retention (and thus full-chip retention.)
What we need is a solution that allows the clkdm to idle, and then to be
reinitialzed when it wakes up. Due to the way (I understand) resets in
the debugss, allowing the clkdm to idle will cause a reset, so the
PMU/CTI interrupts need to be reinitialzied after wakeup.
Kevin
P.S. Please note there is also already a different fix in mainline for
the EMU clkdm data from Paul which adds the force wakeup flag and
removes the DISABLE_AUTO flag[1] (but leaves the ENABLE_AUTO flag,
because the hardware is capable.)

The previous patch has supported runtime pm on omap4 pmu[1], but still
didn't fix the problem. Could you comment on the patch and point out
the proper way to support pmu runtime for fixing the problem?

It does not! Sorry, I was so engrossed with figuring out why the EMU
clkdm was being idled as soon as it was enabled, I forgot to check if is
ever disabled once we terminated perf :-(

Yes exactly I see that now. I have prototyped the 3 patches and this is
working AND the EMU clkdm does go back to idle. I can send out to the

Hmmm ... yes saw this, and you will have to excuse me as I don't fully
follow the logic here. In fact, I am thinking we want the opposite ;-)
>From looking, into this it seems to me that when PMU is running we want
the EMU clock domain in software-wakeup state and when PMU is not

flag set, as soon as we enable the clock domain it is put right back
into the HW_AUTO state and hence PMU is not working (see _enable()

So really what I think we want is to remove the ENABLE_AUTO flag to keep
the clock domain in software wake-up and use the DISABLE_AUTO flag to
put the clock domain back in HW_AUTO (note this requires a patch to
perform this 2nd part).

This is only because it was in the HWSUP state when _enable was called.

Well, Paul will have to comment here for the final word, but IIUC, the
hwmod flags are supposed to indicate only what the HW is capable of. If
we want to change the runtime behavior, we nee to use (or add) APIs to
change the beahvior. In this case, clkdm_allow_idle(),
clkdm_deny_idle() are probably what is needed here.

Yes, indeed, we should not hack the flags to fix that kind of issue. The
flags describe what the HW is capable of, and the EMU CD can support
HW_AUTO and SW_WAKEUP. AFAIK, the issue with that EMU CD is that the
only valid next power state is OFF, meaning that no retention mode is
supported. So any transition to idle will go to OFF and lead to a reset
upon wakeup.
That being said, being able to transition to OFF during idle is a
perfectly valid state for most powerdomain in OMAP anyway, so we should
be able to restore from OFF mode smoothly.
It looks to me that what is missing here is *just* a restore path in the
PMU/CTI code. But I'm probably missing some nasty details in this issue :-)

Although it is perfectly feasible to have a seamless transition of the
EMU power domain, I think the PMU counters will not be accurate
anymore since they stop counting events when going to OFF and re-start
after the state restore.

Good point, but I think the PMU might still works fine because located
inside the MPU domain. AFAIR, only the path to access the PMU and the
CTI is going to OFF and thus will be reset.
But that whole DEBUGSS is such a nightmare, that I'm not 100% sure about
that :-)

Good point, but I think the PMU might still works fine because located
inside the MPU domain. AFAIR, only the path to access the PMU and the
CTI is going to OFF and thus will be reset.
But that whole DEBUGSS is such a nightmare, that I'm not 100% sure about
that :-)

Ever better point ;p Thanks for the precision.
In any case my point was: can we allow the EMU CD to go OFF or prevent
it from doing so? We need to answer that question first.

The idea I've suggested is to use runtime PM for this. As long as the
PMU is in use, it will be runtime PM enabled (and not allowed to go into
HWSUP idle.) When it is not used, it will be allowed to HWSUP idle, and
then be reset. The next time it is needed, the runtime resume will need
to do a full re-init.

Oh, but does that mean that this driver is not pm_runtime adapted yet?

Actually, it is. Ming Lei has done it.
Currently, Will has collected this[1] and is waiting (patiently) for us
to produce a real fix that doesn't kill PM in the process.

No hacking intended here, just getting the flags correct ;-)
So let me start from the beginning ...
1. I agree that for the EMU CD that the valid HW states are HW_AUTO and
SW_WKUP.
2. When the EMU CD is active (due to something like PMU), we want to
keep the CD in the SW_WKUP state, otherwise we can automatically
transition to idle and reset the IP (at least for omap4430).
3. When the EMU CD is inactive, we want to keep the CD in the HW_AUTO
state because SW_SLEEP is NOT supported.
In the current code, we have the CLKDM_CAN_DISABLE_AUTO flag disabled
and the CLKDM_CAN_ENABLE_AUTO flag enabled. If CLKDM_CAN_ENABLE_AUTO is
set then the omap_pm_clkdms_setup() function will place the CD into
HW_AUTO regardless of CLKDM_CAN_DISABLE_AUTO, and the next time the
hwmod _enable() is called it is in the HW_AUTO state and so it is
allowed to idle. This is not what we want. Do you agree?
If I set CLKDM_CAN_DISABLE_AUTO flag and disable CLKDM_CAN_ENABLE_AUTO,
then I do not have the above problem.
To be honest, with you the more I look and test the code, the more
confused I am by the definition of the CLKDM_CAN_HWSUP ...
#define CLKDM_CAN_HWSUP (CLKDM_CAN_ENABLE_AUTO | CLKDM_CAN_DISABLE_AUTO)
When I look at where these flags are used, I see that
CLKDM_CAN_ENABLE_AUTO is used in clkdm_allow_idle and
CLKDM_CAN_DISABLE_AUTO is used in clkdm_deny_idle. So this implies that ...
CLKDM_CAN_ENABLE_AUTO = Supports HW_AUTO state when CD is active
CLKDM_CAN_DISABLE_AUTO = Does NOT supports HW_AUTO state when CD is active
Are the above the correct definitions? If so why is CLKDM_CAN_HWSUP
defined as above?
So may be I just needed to understand how these flags are intended to be
used.

Yes agree with this too.

I had to make a couple mods to Ming's patches but I do have something
working now that _should_ not break PM. However, per my previous email
(in response to Benoit's) I am struggling with the definition of the
CLKDM_CAN_XXXXXX_AUTO flags to know the correct way to fix this.
I was going to send out my patches, but I wanted to get some more
feedback on this first.

Not quite.
These flags describe the capabilities as defined in CLKTRCTRL field of
the CLKSTCTRL register (e.g. CM_EMU_CLKSTCTRL)
CLKDM_CAN_ENABLE_AUTO: IP supports HW_AUTO state (and it can be enabled)
CLKDM_CAN_DISABLE_AUTO: HW_AUTO feature can be disabled (a.k.a. NO_SLEEP)
Note that in OMAP4, the latter called NO_SLEEP in the TRM, but in OMAP3
it's described as "The automatic hardware-supervised mode is disabled"
What is confusing to me is that the OMAP4 TRM doesn't list the NO_SLEEP
mode as supported by the EMU. It seems to me that if the IP supports
HW_AUTO, it should be able to be enabled *and* disabled.
Maybe Paul/Benoit can clarify.

While waiting for feeback, if you set the flags to CAN_FORCE_WAKEUP and
CAN_HWSUP, can you get the PMU interrupts working after an EMU CD idle
transition (and reset.)

s/hwmod/clockdomain/ in this case, but that's exactly right. The
motivation is to allow this data to be autogenerated and to allow it to
be verified against the TRM (assuming that the TRM is not wrong).
If there's some weird hardware bug, the intention is to either add a
special workaround flag so the bug doesn't get hidden, or to deal with it
in the code in some way.

Unfortunately, not. By setting CAN_HWSUP, the EMU CD will be put back
into HW_AUTO state when it is enabled. The hwmod _enable() function will
first put the CD into SW_WKUP (because CAN_FORCE_WAKEUP is set), but
because it was previously in HW_AUTO state AND CAN_ENABLE_AUTO is set it
will be be put back into HW_AUTO again. Hence, we are back where we begun!
CAN_ENABLE_AUTO is causing me a headache, because whenever you call
clkdm_allow_idle, it will allow it to idle and this happens during the
_enable() sequence :-(
Does this make sense?

Unfortunately, not. By setting CAN_HWSUP, the EMU CD will be put back
into HW_AUTO state when it is enabled. The hwmod _enable() function will
first put the CD into SW_WKUP (because CAN_FORCE_WAKEUP is set), but
because it was previously in HW_AUTO state AND CAN_ENABLE_AUTO is set it
will be be put back into HW_AUTO again. Hence, we are back where we begun!
CAN_ENABLE_AUTO is causing me a headache, because whenever you call
clkdm_allow_idle, it will allow it to idle and this happens during the
_enable() sequence :-(
Does this make sense?

Yes, it definitely appears that EMU does not support NO_SLEEP according
to the TRM. However, even if it did, this would not help in this case as
we need to keep the CD in the SW_WKUP state while active. However, the
problem with this is it breaks the current software model that is used
to manage the CDs.
It is not a good solution, but for this domain it would appear that we
would need to have another flag, such as, "CAN_ENABLE_AUTO_ON_INACTIVE" :-(
Let me know what you think.

Yeah, in fact this is the source of the current confusion for my point of view.
We chat about that with Paul some time back.
EMU CD does support HW_AUTO and SW_WKUP, so it means that if you want to disable the AUTO mode you can use the SW_WKUP.
Assuming that CLKDM_CAN_DISABLE_AUTO is equivalent to NO_SLEEP is thus not correct. In fact any state != HW_AUTO should be considered a non-automatic mode.
So EMU does support CLKDM_CAN_ENABLE_AUTO, CLKDM_CAN_DISABLE_AUTO and CLKDM_CAN_FORCE_WAKEUP.
But the way it is implemented does not really allow that, because disable hwsup imply setting state to OMAP34XX_CLKSTCTRL_DISABLE_AUTO.
void omap4_cminst_clkdm_disable_hwsup(u8 part, s16 inst, u16 cdoffs)
{
_clktrctrl_write(OMAP34XX_CLKSTCTRL_DISABLE_AUTO, part, inst, cdoffs);
}
So if we want to allow that, some code change are needed in order to set the clkdm mode to OMAP34XX_CLKSTCTRL_FORCE_WAKEUP if OMAP34XX_CLKSTCTRL_DISABLE_AUTO is not supported.

No, not really, this is mostly OMAP3 legacy, and we do have plan to remove these useless modes going forward. We can effectively disable AUTO mode by going to FORCE_WAKEUP.
- 0x0 NO_SLEEP A clock domain sleep transition is never initiated, irrespective of the hardware conditions.
- 0x1 SW_SLEEP A software-forced sleep transition. The transition is initiated when the associated hardware conditions are satisfied
- 0x2 SW_WKUP A software-forced clock domain wake-up transition is initiated, irrespective of the hardware conditions.
- 0x3 HW_AUTO Hardware-controlled automatic sleep and wake-up transition is initiated by the PRCM module when the associated hardware conditions are satisfied
On OMAP4, SW_SLEEP is equivalent to ENABLE_AUTO and
NO_SLEEP is equivalent to SW_WKUP. There are some slight differences inside the HW, but in term of functionality this is mostly equivalent.
Bottom-line, if we fix the omap4_cminst_clkdm_disable_hwsup, we can consider that the EMU CD does support CLKDM_CAN_ENABLE_AUTO, CLKDM_CAN_DISABLE_AUTO and CLKDM_CAN_FORCE_WAKEUP, which is equivalent to CLKDM_CAN_HWSUP | CLKDM_CAN_FORCE_WAKEUP.

Benoit

So if we want to allow that, some code change are needed in order to set the clkdm mode to OMAP34XX_CLKSTCTRL_FORCE_WAKEUP if OMAP34XX_CLKSTCTRL_DISABLE_AUTO is not supported.

No, not really, this is mostly OMAP3 legacy, and we do have plan to remove these useless modes going forward. We can effectively disable AUTO mode by going to FORCE_WAKEUP.
- 0x0 NO_SLEEP A clock domain sleep transition is never initiated, irrespective of the hardware conditions.
- 0x1 SW_SLEEP A software-forced sleep transition. The transition is initiated when the associated hardware conditions are satisfied
- 0x2 SW_WKUP A software-forced clock domain wake-up transition is initiated, irrespective of the hardware conditions.
- 0x3 HW_AUTO Hardware-controlled automatic sleep and wake-up transition is initiated by the PRCM module when the associated hardware conditions are satisfied
On OMAP4, SW_SLEEP is equivalent to ENABLE_AUTO and
NO_SLEEP is equivalent to SW_WKUP. There are some slight differences inside the HW, but in term of functionality this is mostly equivalent.
Bottom-line, if we fix the omap4_cminst_clkdm_disable_hwsup, we can consider that the EMU CD does support CLKDM_CAN_ENABLE_AUTO, CLKDM_CAN_DISABLE_AUTO and CLKDM_CAN_FORCE_WAKEUP, which is equivalent to CLKDM_CAN_HWSUP | CLKDM_CAN_FORCE_WAKEUP.

Per our discussion and just to re-iterate here for OMAP4+ devices, we
should have ...
CAN_DISABLE_AUTO --> SW_WKUP
CAN_ENABLE_AUTO --> HW_AUTO
CAN_FORCE_WAKEUP --> SW_WKUP
CAN_FORCE_SLEEP --> HW_AUTO
Hence, the NO_SLEEP and SW_SLEEP should not be used for OMAP4+ (per the
equivalents highlighted above). At least that is the current theory :-)
Please note that for the EMU power domain, although HW_AUTO and SW_WKUP
are the supported modes, even with the above definitions we still do not
want to enable CAN_ENABLE_AUTO for this CD as the _enable() will place
the CD in HW_AUTO after it has been woken up. So for the EMU CD we would
just want CAN_SWSUP (based on the above). This works so far.
By the way, given this new proposed mapping of flags to modes, I am
still wondering if we should take this a step further and change the
flag names completely :-o
For example, for CDs I see there being (at least) 3 states that we care
about and these are ...
1. The wake-up mode - CDs should be placed in SW_WKUP mode for all
OMAP devices.
2. The on mode - CDs could be placed in NO_SLEEP (OMAP2/3 only)
SW_WKUP (eg. OMAP4 EMU CD) or HW_AUTO mode
3. The off mode - CDs could be place in the HW_AUTO or SW_SLEEP
(OMAP2/3 only) mode.
Note that it is possible for on and off modes to be the same (ie.
HW_AUTO). Given the above states, we should only care about how the CD
is programmed for each state versus what modes the CD actually supports.
Therefore, we could create the following flags ...
CLKDM_WAKEUP_MODE
CLKDM_ON_MODE_NO_SLEEP
CLKDM_ON_MODE_SW_WAKEUP
CLKDM_ON_MODE_HW_AUTO
CLKDM_OFF_MODE_SW_SLEEP
CLKDM_OFF_MODE_HW_AUTO
This would obviously be a bigger change, but I am wondering if this
could simplify the logic and be less confusing? Just a thought ...
Cheers
Jon

I realise now the the l4cfg CD does not support SW_WKUP and so I guess
we still need NO_SLEEP in that case. So that would break the above
mapping and we would have to handle it in software.

I have posted my latest series here [1] based upon that from Will [2]
which attempts to fix the EMU CD based upon the inputs from this thread.
It is working on my omap4460 panda. Hopefully Ming and/or Will can also
test. I know that Ming is out this week but said he can test next week.
Cheers

Is the second statement correct ?
How about static/dynamic deps. Does SW_SLEEP honour that like HW_AUTO ?

Many thanks to you (+Kevin, Benoit, Paul and co) for persevering with this.
If I can get my hands on a Panda, I'll see if I can test something this
week. Any particular tests you want me to run to exercise the interaction
with PM?

I would like to get the final patch (on top of Ming's) so I can test this on
my Panda board too. Thanks.

There are some differences between 4430 and 4460 here. Can you test on
4430 as well?

May be Kevin and Paul have some suggestions, but I am not sure what PM modes are currently supported for OMAP4 in the linux-omap master branch.
For my testing I have just been reading the PM_EMU_PWRSTST register which shows the power state of the EMU power domain. It should read 3 when the power domain is ON and 0 when it is off. I did something like the following (dumping all EMU clock and power domain registers).
Cheers

No problem. I tested on an OMAP4430 ES2.2 EMU blaze this morning and it
is also working.
By the way, from an EMU power domain perspective the omap4430 and
omap4460 behave the same, that is the PD is always set to OFF state and
so will transition to OFF when ever the EMU CD idles. So same problem
exists when using PMU and CTI.
Cheers

Do you disable OMAP2/3 support in the kernel config, so that CPU_HAS_PMU
is enabled?

I enabled OMAP3 debug peripherals, so I selected CPU_HAS_PMU that way.

I tried the same (make omap2plus_defconfig and enabled the above
option), and I do see the interrupts firing on both 4430 and 4460...
/ # cat /proc/interrupts
CPU0 CPU1
29: 1023 404 GIC twd
33: 401 0 GIC arm-pmu
34: 0 441 GIC arm-pmu
What is your kernel commit ID that you applied the patches on top of?
What board are you using? Blaze, panda, etc, and is it 4430 or 4460?
Cheers
Jon

Well, at least it's working for somebody!

7cf543bc ("Linux-omap rebuilt: Updated to -rc6, merged in pending branches,

Ye olde Panda 4430. It does work with my perf/omap4 branch though using the
same .config (I can mail it to you separately if you want).

Ok, thanks. I was based upon Tony's -rc5. However, I rebased to the same
as you and it is still working for me
Can you send me your .config?
At the same time, maybe just try "make omap2plus_defconfig" and enable
the OMAP3 debug devices config. That's all I am doing.

Ok, should be fine. The kernel should print the ES version on start-up ...
[ 0.000000] OMAP4430 ES2.2
What does yours show?

Excellent, that works for me. Once we've worked out the problem with my
.config you can have my tested-by.

Great! I have been looking at your .config, but I have not been able to
figure out the problem so far. Do you recall what your config is based
upon? I seems quite different to mine and the omap2plus_defconfig has
not changed much in the last few kernel releases.

Hmm, I'm honestly not sure -- it was just lying around in my home directory.
Given that I know very little about OMAP, I would suspect that it's either
based on the defconfig or I inherited a working kernel image from somebody
else and used /proc/config.gz to build my own.

Any update on this? I'm keen to collect all the patches required for the
OMAP4 PMU to work as they're currently scattered all over the place. Can I
have your signed-off-by for the patch referred to above as well please?

My mistake - I thought you were referring to a period of 10000, but similar

If the last one I posted is alright to you (seems that it is), then I'll
update it with the removal of the overflow flag and post it to the list with
you on CC.
I also need to get to the bottom of those warnings.

In fact, I suggested to keep the overflow information to handle the
case by reading
hw counter overflow flag, but looks it is a bit frail to sync overflow
flag with the
counter value in non-interrupt situation, so I agree with you to
remove 'overflow'
parameter from armpmu_event_update.

On OMAP4, I can observe that about 19800 sample events can be generated
with the below command:
'perf record -e cycles -F 10000 ./noploop 2&& perf report -D | tail -20'
So the above result looks not bad, :-)

I agree, it is not easy to read overflow flag and counter accurately
from hardware
directly on a non-interrupt path.
So do you need me to prepare a new patch, or you will do it by yourself?

The issue is confirmed with synctime idle. I am just waiting on for the
right work around confirmation from hardware team. As soon as
I have that, will post a patch.

I don't want to assume that the counters are 32-bit in this code as we may
want to plug in some other PMU with 16-bit counters, for example. That's why
we have max_period defined for each PMU. Furthermore, it still doesn't help us
in the stat case where prev will typically be quite small after we've had an
overflow and new may well overtake it.
> But I am afraid that the issue still can be triggered in sample-based situation,

Not sure I follow. If the frequency is 10000, then we write 0xffffd8f0 to
the counter. That means we have a 0xffffd8f0 event window to read the
counter after it overflows before new overtakes prev and we get confused.
If this passed in 100us then either your clock speed is 4.3*10^12Hz or you
have a seriously wide issue :)
> So we may use the overflow information to make perf more robust, IMO.
There's a trade off between allowing the counter to wrap back around past
its previous value or being able to handle overflow on a non-interrupt path.
Given that the former problem is only a real issue for non-sampling runs,
halving the period in that case should sort it (and it does stop my simple
test case from exploding).

I think it does solve that problem.

I don't want to assume that the counters are 32-bit in this code as we may
want to plug in some other PMU with 16-bit counters, for example. That's why
we have max_period defined for each PMU. Furthermore, it still doesn't help us
in the stat case where prev will typically be quite small after we've had an
overflow and new may well overtake it.

Not sure I follow. If the frequency is 10000, then we write 0xffffd8f0 to
the counter. That means we have a 0xffffd8f0 event window to read the
counter after it overflows before new overtakes prev and we get confused.
If this passed in 100us then either your clock speed is 4.3*10^12Hz or you
have a seriously wide issue :)

There's a trade off between allowing the counter to wrap back around past
its previous value or being able to handle overflow on a non-interrupt path.
Given that the former problem is only a real issue for non-sampling runs,
halving the period in that case should sort it (and it does stop my simple
test case from exploding).

Of course, it does work for the problem reported by Stephane since
it changes the delta computation basically as I did, but I am afraid that
it may be not good enough for the issue fixed in a737823d ("ARM: 6835/1:

If you assume that the issue addressed by a737823d can only happen in
non-sample situation, Peter's idea of u32 cast is OK and maybe simpler.
But I am afraid that the issue still can be triggered in sample-based situation,
especially in very high frequency case: suppose the sample freq is 10000,
100us IRQ delay may trigger the issue.
So we may use the overflow information to make perf more robust, IMO.

The more I think about this, the more I think that the overflow parameter to
armpmu_event_update needs to go. It was introduced to prevent massive event
loss in non-sampling mode, but I think we can get around that by changing
the default sample_period to be half of the max_period, therefore giving
ourselves a much better chance of handling the interrupt before new wraps
around past prev.
Ming Lei - can you try the following please? If it works for you, then I'll
do it properly and kill the overflow parameter altogether.

Good idea, but it may not work if new_raw_count is bigger than prev_raw_count.

on x86 we do:
int shift = 64 - x86_pmu.cntval_bits;
s64 delta;
delta = (new_raw_count << shift) - (prev_raw_count << shift);
delta >>= shift;
This deals with short overflows (on x86 the registers are typically 40

Looks I am luck enough and not see the warning on OMAP4, either -rc3 or
-rc3--next-20120210, :-)
Maybe we have different config options.

IMO, it is not so difficult to get it, suppose prev_raw_count is
1000000 and -prev_raw_count
was write to one pmu counter, then the counter will be expired and pmu
irq is not handled
quickly enough, so the pmu counter will warp and start counting from zero.
When the tick is scheduled just before handling pmu irq,
armpmu_event_update() is
called to read the pmu counter as 'new_raw_count', suppose it is 100,
then the issue
is triggered: u64 delta = 100 - 1000000 = 18446744073708551716.
Looks the higher the frequency is, the easier the problem is reproduced.

Also we may remove the 'overflow' parameter from armpmu_event_update,
and introduce armpmu->is_overflow(idx) callback to check if the counter(event)
is overflow inside armpmu_event_update.
IMO, the pmu irq can't be lost, so the pmu irq handler is not needed to invoke
in tick path.

Sorry, I didn't notice the commit and the problem addressed, so looks
the 'overflow'
information is needed for armpmu_event_update.

Looks I am luck enough and not see the warning on OMAP4, either -rc3 or
-rc3--next-20120210, :-)
Maybe we have different config options.

IMO, it is not so difficult to get it, suppose prev_raw_count is
1000000 and -prev_raw_count
was write to one pmu counter, then the counter will be expired and pmu
irq is not handled
quickly enough, so the pmu counter will warp and start counting from zero.
When the tick is scheduled just before handling pmu irq,
armpmu_event_update() is
called to read the pmu counter as 'new_raw_count', suppose it is 100,
then the issue
is triggered: u64 delta = 100 - 1000000 = 18446744073708551716.
Looks the higher the frequency is, the easier the problem is reproduced.

Also we may remove the 'overflow' parameter from armpmu_event_update,
and introduce armpmu->is_overflow(idx) callback to check if the counter(event)
is overflow inside armpmu_event_update.
IMO, the pmu irq can't be lost, so the pmu irq handler is not needed to invoke
in tick path.

Sorry, I didn't notice the commit and the problem addressed, so looks
the 'overflow'
information is needed for armpmu_event_update.

As I reported previously, Stephane's patch is causing warnings on -rc3:
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2012-February/084391.html
so I'd like to get to the bottom of that before changing anything else.
I'd also like to know why this has only been reported on OMAP4 and I can't
reproduce it on my boards.

Hmm, so are you observing an event overflow during the tick handler? This
should be fine unless the new value has wrapped past the previous one (i.e.
more than 2^32 events have occurred). I find this extremely unlikely for
sample-based profiling unless you have some major IRQ latency issues...
The only way I can think of improving this (bearing in mind that at some
point we're limited by 32 bits of counter) is to check for overflow in the
tick path and then invoke the PMU irq handler if there is an overflow, but
that's really not very nice.

This breaks when more than max_period events have passed. See a737823d
("ARM: 6835/1: perf: ensure overflows aren't missed due to IRQ latency").

As I reported previously, Stephane's patch is causing warnings on -rc3:
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2012-February/084391.html
so I'd like to get to the bottom of that before changing anything else.
I'd also like to know why this has only been reported on OMAP4 and I can't
reproduce it on my boards.

Hmm, so are you observing an event overflow during the tick handler? This
should be fine unless the new value has wrapped past the previous one (i.e.
more than 2^32 events have occurred). I find this extremely unlikely for
sample-based profiling unless you have some major IRQ latency issues...
The only way I can think of improving this (bearing in mind that at some
point we're limited by 32 bits of counter) is to check for overflow in the
tick path and then invoke the PMU irq handler if there is an overflow, but
that's really not very nice.

This breaks when more than max_period events have passed. See a737823d
("ARM: 6835/1: perf: ensure overflows aren't missed due to IRQ latency").

Yes, you are right, I remembered it was observed it on -rc1, and
Stephane's unthrottling
patch was not merged at that time. Today I investigated the problem
further on -rc3 and found that seems the problem is caused by arm pmu code.
The patch below may fix the problem, now about 40000 sample events
can be generated on the command:
'perf record -e cycles -F 4000 ./noploop 10&& perf report -D | tail -20'
armpmu_event_update may be called in tick path, so the running counter
will be overflowed and produce a great value of 'delta', then a mistaken
count is stored into event->count and event->hw.freq_count_stamp. Finally
the two variables are not synchronous, then a invalid and large period is
computed and written to pmu, and sample events are decreased much.
Will, this patch simplifies the 'delta' computation and doesn't use the
overflow flag, even though which can be read directly from PMOVSR, could you
comment on the patch?

I finally got around to testing this and yes, the perf top invocation above
yields ~1005 interrupts/second on my board.
However, with -rc3 I get a WARNING in dmesg due to PERF_EF_RELOAD being

Further testing reveals my observations above are specific to 4430.
4460 exhibits bad jitter on all versions I've tried. Interestingly my
change to the 32k timer idle modes does not fix the problem on 4460.
I too found Santosh's change greatly improves the jitter problem, but it
still seems worse than 4430.

Looks like the issue is caused by perf_event itself, but nothing to do
with much overhead
somewhere.
On OMAP4, HZ is 128, and perf_rotate_context may set a new sample period(~8ms),
which is much longer than 1ms in 1000HZ freq mode, so less sample events are
observed. X86 isn't affected since its HZ is 1000.
With patch[1], about 10000 sample events can be generated after running
'perf record -e cycles ./noploop 10' and 'perf report -D | tail -20'
on panda board.
I am not sure if patch[1] is a right fix, but it can verify the problem.
thanks,

Looks like the issue is caused by perf_event itself, but nothing to do
with much overhead
somewhere.
On OMAP4, HZ is 128, and perf_rotate_context may set a new sample period(~8ms),
which is much longer than 1ms in 1000HZ freq mode, so less sample events are

I'm away from my dev boards at the moment, but I'll give this a go next week

An easier way to verify we're getting the right number of samples is
to use perf top:
$ taskset -c 1 noploop 1000 &
$ sudo perf top
You'll see around 850 irqs/sec, should be closer to 1000.
But if I drop the rate to 100Hz, then it works:
$ sudo perf top -F 100
That leads me to believe there is too much overhead somewhere.
Could be in perf_event itself.
Will, do you get 1000 irsq/sec running the same test on your systems?

There might be still a small corner case where few reads
might return the stale value. Counter need at least 1 32K
clock cycle for the sync. udelay is not accurate but
it will at least give min. 1/32768, so it should be
fine.
May be you can try out below patch and see if it helps.

Glad to hear that patch helped you. I will check with OMAP design team
on the issue and post a post to mainline accordingly.
Am keeping below thread as is since this is first time it will apear
on active arm list :)
