Subject: [RFC PATCH 0/4] powerpc/papr_scm: Add support for reporting NVDIMM performance statistics
Date: Mon, 18 May 2020 16:38:10 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200518110814.145644-1-vaibhav@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
The patch-set proposes to add support for fetching and reporting
performance statistics for PAPR compliant NVDIMMs as described in
documentation for H_SCM_PERFORMANCE_STATS hcall Ref[1]. The patch-set
also implements mechanisms to expose NVDIMM performance stats via
sysfs and newly introduced PDSMs[2] for libndctl.
This patch-set combined with corresponding ndctl and libndctl changes
proposed at Ref[3] should enable user to fetch PAPR compliant NVDIMMs
using following command:
# ndctl list -D --stats
[
{
"dev":"nmem0",
"stats":{
"Controller Reset Count":2,
"Controller Reset Elapsed Time":603331,
"Power-on Seconds":603931,
"Life Remaining":"100%",
"Critical Resource Utilization":"0%",
"Host Load Count":5781028,
"Host Store Count":8966800,
"Host Load Duration":975895365,
"Host Store Duration":716230690,
"Media Read Count":0,
"Media Write Count":6313,
"Media Read Duration":0,
"Media Write Duration":9679615,
"Cache Read Hit Count":5781028,
"Cache Write Hit Count":8442479,
"Fast Write Count":8969912
}
}
]
The patchset is dependent on existing patch-set "[PATCH v7 0/5]
powerpc/papr_scm: Add support for reporting nvdimm health" available
at Ref[2] that adds support for reporting PAPR compliant NVDIMMs in
'papr_scm' kernel module.
Structure of the patch-set
==========================
The patch-set starts with implementing functionality in papr_scm
module to issue H_SCM_PERFORMANCE_STATS hcall, fetch & parse dimm
performance stats and exposing them as a PAPR specific libnvdimm
attribute named 'perf_stats'
Patch-2 introduces a new PDSM named FETCH_PERF_STATS that can be
issued by libndctl asking papr_scm to issue the
H_SCM_PERFORMANCE_STATS hcall using helpers introduced earlier and
storing the results in a dimm specific perf-stats-buffer.
Patch-3 introduces a new PDSM named READ_PERF_STATS that can be
issued by libndctl to read the perf-stats-buffer in an incremental
manner to workaround the 256-bytes envelop limitation of libnvdimm.
Finally Patch-4 introduces a new PDSM named GET_PERF_STAT that can be
issued by libndctl to read values of a specific NVDIMM performance
stat like "Life Remaining".
