[PATCH 6.1 025/138] perf/x86/amd/lbr: Use freeze based on availability

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

 



6.1-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Sandipan Das <sandipan.das@xxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 598c2fafc06fe5c56a1a415fb7b544b31453d637 ]

Currently, the LBR code assumes that LBR Freeze is supported on all processors
when X86_FEATURE_AMD_LBR_V2 is available i.e. CPUID leaf 0x80000022[EAX]
bit 1 is set. This is incorrect as the availability of the feature is
additionally dependent on CPUID leaf 0x80000022[EAX] bit 2 being set,
which may not be set for all Zen 4 processors.

Define a new feature bit for LBR and PMC freeze and set the freeze enable bit
(FLBRI) in DebugCtl (MSR 0x1d9) conditionally.

It should still be possible to use LBR without freeze for profile-guided
optimization of user programs by using an user-only branch filter during
profiling. When the user-only filter is enabled, branches are no longer
recorded after the transition to CPL 0 upon PMI arrival. When branch
entries are read in the PMI handler, the branch stack does not change.

E.g.

  $ perf record -j any,u -e ex_ret_brn_tkn ./workload

Since the feature bit is visible under flags in /proc/cpuinfo, it can be
used to determine the feasibility of use-cases which require LBR Freeze
to be supported by the hardware such as profile-guided optimization of
kernels.
