#1714278 — [PATCH V5] perf: Add PERF_SAMPLE_PHYS_ADDR

Subject[PATCH V5] perf: Add PERF_SAMPLE_PHYS_ADDR
Message-ID<ufxyG-7o-23@gated-at.bofh.it>
From: Kan Liang <kan.liang@intel.com>

For understanding how the workload maps to memory channels and hardware
behavior, it's very important to collect address maps with physical
addresses. For example, 3D XPoint access can only be found by filtering
the physical address.
However, perf doesn't collect physical address information in sampling.

The load latency/DLA information in PEBS can be used to calculate the
physical address.
For kernel direct mapping addresses, virt_to_phys is used to convert the
virtual addresses from DLA to physical address.
For user virtual addresses, __get_user_pages_fast is used to walk the
pages tables for user physical address.
This does not work for vmalloc addresses. Right now these are not
resolved, but code to do that could be added.
For security, the physical address can only be exposed to root or
privileged user.
A new sample type PERF_SAMPLE_PHYS_ADDR is introduced to expose the
physical addresses.

This patch is kernel patch.
The user space patch will be sent out later separately.

Changes since V4
 - Correct PHYS_ADDR placement in perf_output_sample (Stephane)

Changes since V3
 - Move the code dla->phys to separate function (Stephane)
 - Correct PHYS_ADDR misplacement in header file (Stephane)

Changes since V2
 - Only the kernel patch
 - Add example in changelog
 - Include a perf_paranoid_kernel() test (PeterZ)
 - Fix minor complier warning

So this is very unfortunate...

You'll note that that only touches the first cacheline of the data
structure, and you just wrecked that. Back when I did that this made a
measurable difference.

It looks there is still one room in cacheline 1.
Could I use it?

You mean @type, right? That is unconditionally used by the output code.

Now, I was hoping, that if you move the entire thing into generic code
(PPC also support PERF_SAMPLE_DATA) then we can avoid the init here and
rely on perf_sample_prepare().

Is this in any way x86 specific? AFAICT this should work in generic code
as long as data->addr is provided.

No, it's not X86 specific. I think it can be used as generic code to convert
virtual address to physical address.

It won't work on architectures that split the address space for user/kernel
(if TASK_SIZE is meaningless). But perhaps some generic config for that would
work.
