[PATCH 6/8]powerpc/perf: Export Power8 memory hierarchy info to user space
From: Madhavan Srinivasan
Date: Thu Jun 11 2015 - 04:46:06 EST
From: Sukadev Bhattiprolu <sukadev@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
On Power8, the LDST field in SIER identifies the memory hierarchy level
(eg: L1, L2 etc), from which a data-cache miss for a marked instruction
was satisfied.
Use the 'perf_mem_data_src' object to export this hierarchy level to user
space. Fortunately, the memory hierarchy levels in Power8 map fairly easily
into the arch-neutral levels as described by the ldst_src_map[] table.
Usage:
perf record -d -e 'cpu/mem_access/' <application>
perf report -n --mem-mode --sort=mem,sym,dso,symbol_daddr,dso_daddr"
For samples involving load/store instructions, the memory
hierarchy level is shown as "L1 hit", "Remote RAM hit" etc.
# or
perf record --data <application>
perf report -D
Sample records contain a 'data_src' field which encodes the
memory hierarchy level: Eg: data_src 0x442 indicates
MEM_OP_LOAD, MEM_LVL_HIT, MEM_LVL_L2 (i.e load hit L2).
As the precise semantics of 'perf mem -t load' or 'perf mem -t store' (which
require sampling only loads or only stores) cannot be implemented on Power,
we don't implement 'perf mem' on Power for now.
Thanks to input from Stephane Eranian, Michael Ellerman and Michael Neuling.
