Subject: [Patch v5 04/18] x86: pmu: Fix the issue that pmu_counter_t.config crosses cache line
Date: Wed, 3 Jul 2024 09:56:58 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240703095712.64202-5-dapeng1.mi@linux.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20240703095712.64202-1-dapeng1.mi@linux.intel.com>
When running pmu test on SPR, the following #GP fault is reported.

FAIL pmu
It looks EVENTSEL0 MSR (0x186) is written a invalid value (0x4031ad) and
cause a #GP.
Further investigation shows the #GP is caused by below code in
__start_event().
rmsr(MSR_GP_EVENT_SELECTx(event_to_global_idx(evt)),
evt->config | EVNTSEL_EN);
The evt->config is correctly initialized but seems corrupted before
writing to MSR.
The original pmu_counter_t layout looks as below.
typedef struct {
uint32_t ctr;
uint64_t config;
uint64_t count;
int idx;
} pmu_counter_t;
Obviously the config filed crosses two cache lines. When the two cache
lines are not updated simultaneously, the config value is corrupted.
Adjust pmu_counter_t fields order and ensure config field is cache-line
aligned.
