[PATCH v12 04/13] x86/cpufeatures: Add Bandwidth Monitoring Event Configuration feature flag

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Newer AMD processors support the new feature Bandwidth Monitoring Event
Configuration (BMEC).

The feature support is identified via CPUID Fn8000_0020_EBX_x0 (ECX=0).
Bits    Field Name    Description
3       EVT_CFG       Bandwidth Monitoring Event Configuration (BMEC)

The bandwidth monitoring events mbm_total_bytes and mbm_local_bytes are
set to count all the total and local reads/writes respectively. With the
introduction of slow memory, the two counters are not enough to count
all the different types of memory events. With the feature BMEC, the
users have the option to configure mbm_total_bytes and mbm_local_bytes
to count the specific type of events.

Each BMEC event has a configuration MSR, which contains one field for
each bandwidth type that can be used to configure the bandwidth event
to track any combination of supported bandwidth types. The event will
count requests from every bandwidth type bit that is set in the
corresponding configuration register.

Following are the types of events supported:

====    ========================================================
Bits    Description
====    ========================================================
6       Dirty Victims from the QOS domain to all types of memory
5       Reads to slow memory in the non-local NUMA domain
4       Reads to slow memory in the local NUMA domain
3       Non-temporal writes to non-local NUMA domain
2       Non-temporal writes to local NUMA domain
1       Reads to memory in the non-local NUMA domain
0       Reads to memory in the local NUMA domain
====    ========================================================

By default, the mbm_total_bytes configuration is set to 0x7F to count
all the event types and the mbm_local_bytes configuration is set to
0x15 to count all the local memory events.

Feature description is available in the specification, "AMD64
Technology Platform Quality of Service Extensions, Revision: 1.03
Publication".
