[PATCH v3 0/3] Tidy user rdpmc documentation and testing

[PATCH v3 0/3] Tidy user rdpmc documentation and testing

[Ian Rogers]

libperf's perf_mmap__read_self and the addition of arm64 support mean
that the perf_event.h and the rdpmc perf test have become
stale. Refresh the documentation in perf_event.h, remove the x86 rdpmc
test and port the libperf test as a non-architecture specific test.

A comment is added to perf_event.h to avoid a divide by zero when
scaling counts if the running time is 0. This was previously discussed
in this thread:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/CAP-5=fVRdqvswtyQMg5cB+ntTGda+SAYskjTQednEH-AeZo13g@mail.gmail.com/

v3. Incorporates fixes from Rob Herring <robh@kernel.org> to make the
    perf_event.h comments better. It drops the already merged sanitizer fix.
v2. Alters the skip in test_stat_user_read for open to always be a
    skip as perf_event_open may fail with EACCES (permissions), ENOSYS
    (not supported) and ENOENT (hypervisor). Adds Rob Herring's
    acked-by on patch 3.

[PATCH v3 1/3] perf: Align user space counter reading with code

[Ian Rogers]

Align the user space counter reading documentation with the code in
perf_mmap__read_self. Previously the documentation was based on the perf
rdpmc test, but now general purpose code is provided by libperf.

From what I've been told, and from what perf_mmap__read_self() actually 
does, many of these MMAP fields need to be accessed by READ_ONCE()
(a GPLv2 only interface) to be correct.

Should we update perf_event.h to reflect this?  Otherwise it's confusing 
when the actual code and the documentation in the header don't match like 
this.  As an example, see the actual code snippets from
perf_mmap__read_self()

		seq = READ_ONCE(pc->lock);
                barrier();

                count->ena = READ_ONCE(pc->time_enabled);
                count->run = READ_ONCE(pc->time_running);

                if (pc->cap_user_time && count->ena != count->run) {
                        cyc = read_timestamp();
                        time_mult = READ_ONCE(pc->time_mult);
                        time_shift = READ_ONCE(pc->time_shift);
                        time_offset = READ_ONCE(pc->time_offset);

                        if (pc->cap_user_time_short) {
                                time_cycles = READ_ONCE(pc->time_cycles);
                                time_mask = READ_ONCE(pc->time_mask);
                        }
                }

                idx = READ_ONCE(pc->index);
                cnt = READ_ONCE(pc->offset);

Thanks! So I think what this patch proposes is an improvement,
specifically it aligns it better with the code and deals with the
divide by zero. I think what you're asking for makes sense but as you
point out READ_ONCE probably isn't the correct API for something
outside the kernel. Given the kernel is now C11:
https://lwn.net/Articles/885941/
This opens the possibility of using stdatomic.h, so perhaps we can
move these variables to more correct atomic types. So, I think we can
land this and worry about the atomic API in a follow up.

Thanks,
Ian

BTW., for this purpose I guess we could add a READ_ONCE() variant to perf 
tooling that reimplements it with more relaxed licensing, so that the 
headers & sample code can be included in GPL-incompatible projects?

READ_ONCE() isn't a super complicated primitive, and we've always been 
permissive with simple primitives.

Thanks,

Peter, can you merge this so as not to make Linus raise eyebrows with me
processing things outside tools/perf/ when asking him to pull perf

[PATCH v3 2/3] perf test: Remove x86 rdpmc test

[Ian Rogers]

This test has been superseded by test_stat_user_read in:
tools/lib/perf/tests/test-evsel.c
The updated test doesn't divide-by-0 when running time of a counter is
0. It also supports ARM64.

[PATCH v3 3/3] perf test: Add user space counter reading tests

[Ian Rogers]

These tests are based on test_stat_user_read in
tools/lib/perf/tests/test-evsel.c. The tests are modified to skip if
perf_event_open fails or rdpmc isn't supported.

should this value have a name rather than being a "magic constant"?

Thanks! Firstly, this is just moving code around and so not a
regression introduced by this code:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux.git/tree/tools/lib/perf/tests/test-evsel.c?h=perf/core#n134
I don't believe there is an existing constant for this purpose. The
kernel isn't using one either:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/arch/arm64/kernel/perf_event.c#n309

So I agree with you and hopefully this is something ARM will clean up.

Thanks,
Ian

Thanks, tested and applied.
