Subject: perf/x86/intel/uncore: Fix broken read_counter() for SNB IMC PMU
Git-commit: 11745ecfe8fea4b4a4c322967a7605d2ecbd5080
Patch-mainline: v6.0-rc3
References: jsc#PED-5023 bsc#1211439 (git-fixes)
Existing code was generating bogus counts for the SNB IMC bandwidth counters:
$ perf stat -a -I 1000 -e uncore_imc/data_reads/,uncore_imc/data_writes/
1.000327813 1,024.03 MiB uncore_imc/data_reads/
1.000327813 20.73 MiB uncore_imc/data_writes/
2.000580153 261,120.00 MiB uncore_imc/data_reads/
2.000580153 23.28 MiB uncore_imc/data_writes/
The problem was introduced by commit:
07ce734dd8ad ("perf/x86/intel/uncore: Clean up client IMC")
Where the read_counter callback was replace to point to the generic
uncore_mmio_read_counter() function.
The SNB IMC counters are freerunnig 32-bit counters laid out contiguously in
MMIO. But uncore_mmio_read_counter() is using a readq() call to read from
MMIO therefore reading 64-bit from MMIO. Although this is okay for the
uncore_perf_event_update() function because it is shifting the value based
on the actual counter width to compute a delta, it is not okay for the
uncore_pmu_event_start() which is simply reading the counter and therefore
priming the event->prev_count with a bogus value which is responsible for
causing bogus deltas in the perf stat command above.
The fix is to reintroduce the custom callback for read_counter for the SNB
IMC PMU and use readl() instead of readq(). With the change the output of
perf stat is back to normal:
$ perf stat -a -I 1000 -e uncore_imc/data_reads/,uncore_imc/data_writes/
1.000120987 296.94 MiB uncore_imc/data_reads/
1.000120987 138.42 MiB uncore_imc/data_writes/
2.000403144 175.91 MiB uncore_imc/data_reads/
2.000403144 68.50 MiB uncore_imc/data_writes/
