Subject: [PATCH][v4]: powerpc/perf: Sample only if SIAR-Valid bit is set in P7+
Date: Tue, 18 Sep 2012 23:56:11 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120919065611.GA5907@us.ibm.com> (raw)
powerpc/perf: Sample only if SIAR-Valid bit is set in P7+
On POWER7+ two new bits (mmcra[35] and mmcra[36]) indicate whether the
contents of SIAR and SDAR are valid.
For marked instructions on P7+, we must save the contents of SIAR and
SDAR registers only if these new bits are set.
This code/check for the SIAR-Valid bit is specific to P7+, so rather than
waste a CPU-feature bit use the PVR flag.
Note that Carl Love proposed a similar change for oprofile:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/6/22/309
Changelog [v4]:
- Port to powerpc/next branch - where PV_POWER7p is now PVR_POWER7p
and __is_processor() is now pvr_version_is()
- Ensure patch doesn't break 32-bit build.
Changelog[v3]:
- Commit 5c093efa6f2 added checks to use SIAR only for kernel samples.
Extend that to use SIAR only if SIAR-valid bit is set (in processors
that implement that bit).
Changelog[v2]:
- [Gabriel Paubert] Rename PV_POWER7P to PV_POWER7p.
