[PATCH v5 0/4] perf/core: fix restoring of Intel LBR call stack on a context switch

[Alexey Budankov]

Restore Intel LBR call stack from cloned inactive task perf context on
a context switch. This change inherently addresses inconsistency in LBR 
call stack data provided on a sample in record profiling mode:

  $ perf record -N -B -T -R --call-graph lbr \
         -e cpu/period=0xcdfe60,event=0x3c,name=\'CPU_CLK_UNHALTED.THREAD\'/Duk \
         --clockid=monotonic_raw -- ./miniFE.x nx 25 ny 25 nz 25

Let's assume threads A, B, C belonging to the same process. 
B and C are siblings of A and their perf contexts are treated as equivalent.
At some point B blocks on a futex (non preempt context switch).
B's LBRs are preserved at B's perf context task_ctx_data and B's events 
are removed from PMU and disabled. B's perf context becomes inactive.

Later C gets on a cpu, runs, gets profiled and eventually switches to 
the awaken but not yet running B. The optimized context switch path is 
executed swapping B's and C's task_ctx_data pointers at perf event contexts.
So C's task_ctx_data will refer preserved B's LBRs on the following 
switch-in event.

However, as far B's perf context is inactive there is no enabled events
in there and B's task_ctx_data->lbr_callstack_users is equal to 0.
When B gets on the cpu B's events reviving is skipped following
the optimized context switch path and B's task_ctx_data->lbr_callstack_users
remains 0. Thus B's LBR's are not restored by pmu sched_task() code called 
in the end of perf context switch-in callback for B.

In the report that manifests as having short fragments of B's
call stack, still tracked by LBR's HW between adjacent samples,
but the whole thread call tree doesn't aggregate.

The fix has been evaluated when profiling miniFE [1] (C++, OpenMP)
workload running 64 threads on Intel Skylake EP(64 core, 2 sockets):

[PATCH v5 3/4] perf/x86/intel: implement LBR callstacks context synchronization

[Alexey Budankov]

Implement intel_pmu_lbr_swap_task_ctx() method updating counters
of the events that requested LBR callstack data on a sample.

The counter can be zero for the case when task context belongs to
a thread that has just come from a block on a futex and the context
contains saved (lbr_stack_state == LBR_VALID) LBR register values.

For the values to be restored at LBR registers on the next thread's
switch-in event it swaps the counter value with the one that is
expected to be non zero at the previous equivalent task perf event
context.

Swap operation type ensures the previous task perf event context
stays consistent with the amount of events that requested LBR
callstack data on a sample.

perf/x86/intel: Implement LBR callstack context synchronization

Implement intel_pmu_lbr_swap_task_ctx() method updating counters
of the events that requested LBR callstack data on a sample.

The counter can be zero for the case when task context belongs to
a thread that has just come from a block on a futex and the context
contains saved (lbr_stack_state == LBR_VALID) LBR register values.

For the values to be restored at LBR registers on the next thread's
switch-in event it swaps the counter value with the one that is
expected to be non zero at the previous equivalent task perf event
context.

Swap operation type ensures the previous task perf event context
stays consistent with the amount of events that requested LBR
callstack data on a sample.
