#1184224 — [PATCH v3 0/8] Implement group-read of events using txn interface

Unlike normal hardware PMCs, the 24x7 counters in Power8 are stored in
memory and accessed via a hypervisor call(HCALL).  A major aspect of the
HCALL is that it allows retireving _several_ counters at once (unlike
regular PMCs, which are read one at a time). By reading several counters
at once, we can get a more consistent snapshot of the system.

This patchset extends the transaction interface to accomplish submitting
several events to the PMU and have the PMU read them all at once. User is
expected to submit the set of events they want to read as an "event group".

In the kernel, we submit each event to the PMU using the following logic
(from Peter Zijlstra).

        pmu->start_txn(pmu, PMU_TXN_READ);

        leader->read();
        for_each_sibling()
                sibling->read();
        pmu->commit_txn();

where:
        - the ->read()s queue events to be submitted to the hypervisor, and,
        - the ->commit_txn() issues the HCALL, retrieves the result and
          updates the event count.

Architectures/PMUs that don't need/implement PMU_TXN_READ type of transactions,
simply ignore the ->start_txn() and ->commit_txn() and continue to read the
counters one at a time in the ->read() call.

Compile/touch tested on x86. Need help testing on s390 and Sparc.

Thanks to Peter Zijlstra for his input.

Changelog [v3]
	- Simple changes/reorg of patchset to split/rename functions
	- [Peter Zijlstra] Save the transaction flags in ->start_txn() and
	  drop the flags parameter from ->commit_txn() and ->cancel_txn().
	- [Peter Zijlstra] The nop txn interfaces don't need to disable/enable
	  PMU for PERF_PMU_TXN_READ transactions.

Changelog [v2]
        - Use the transaction interface unconditionally to avoid special-case
          code. Architectures/PMUs that don't need the READ transaction types
          simply ignore the ->start_txn() and ->commit_txn() calls.

#1184226 — [PATCH v3 4/8] perf: Split perf_event_read() and perf_event_count()

perf_event_read() does two things:

	- call the PMU to read/update the counter value, and
	- compute the total count of the event and its children

Not all callers need both. perf_event_reset() for instance needs the
first piece but doesn't need the second.  Similarly, when we implement
the ability to read a group of events using the transaction interface,
we would need the two pieces done independently.

Break up perf_event_read() and have it just read/update the counter
and have the callers compute the total count if necessary.

#1184227 — [PATCH v3 7/8] perf: Define PMU_TXN_READ interface

Define a new PERF_PMU_TXN_READ interface to read a group of counters
at once. Note that we use this interface with all PMUs.

PMUs that implement this interface use the ->read() operation to _queue_
the counters to be read and use ->commit_txn() to actually read all the
queued counters at once.

PMUs that don't implement PERF_PMU_TXN_READ ignore ->start_txn() and
->commit_txn() and continue to read counters one at a time.

Thanks to input from Peter Zijlstra.

There should be a lockdep assert with that list iteration.

I've not woken up yet, and not actually fully read the email, but can
you stuff the entire above chunk inside the IPI?

I think you could then actually optimize __perf_event_read() as well,
because all these events should be on the same context, so no point in
calling update_*time*() for every event or so.

#1184228 — [PATCH v3 3/8] perf: Add a flags parameter to pmu txn interfaces

Currently, the PMU interface allows reading only one counter at a time.
But some PMUs like the 24x7 counters in Power, support reading several
counters at once. To leveage this functionality, extend the transaction
interface to support a "transaction type".

The first type, PERF_PMU_TXN_ADD, refers to the existing transactions,
i.e. used to _schedule_ all the events on the PMU as a group. A second
transaction type, PERF_PMU_TXN_READ, will be used in a follow-on patch,
by the 24x7 counters to read several counters at once.

Extend the transaction interfaces to the PMU to accept a 'txn_flags'
parameter and use this parameter to ignore any transactions that are
not of type PERF_PMU_TXN_ADD.

Thanks to Peter Zijlstra for his input.

Changelog[v3]
	- [Peter Zijlstra] Ensure the nop_txn interfaces disable/enable
	  PMU only for TXN_ADD transactions.
	- [Peter Zijlstra] Cache the flags parameter in ->start_txn() and
	  drop the flags parameter from ->commit_txn() and ->cancel_txn().

#1184229 — [PATCH v3 5/8] perf: Split perf_event_read_value()

Move the part of perf_event_read_value() that computes the event
counts and event times into a new function, perf_event_compute().

This would allow us to call perf_event_compute() independently.

Signed-off-by: Sukadev Bhattiprolu <sukadev@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

Changelog[v3]
	Rather than move perf_event_read() into callers and then
	rename, just move the computations into a separate function
	(redesign to address comment from Peter Zijlstra).

We are aggregating event counts and time for children.

Would perf_event_aggregate() or perf_event_aggregate_children()
be better?
