6adf406f0a oprofile: add support for Core i7 and Atom
The registers are about the same as other Family 6 CPUs
so we only need to add detection.

I'm not completely happy with calling Nehalem Core i7 because
there will be undoubtedly other Nehalem based CPUs
in the future with different marketing names, but it's
the best we got for now.

Requires updated oprofile userland for the new event files.

If you don't want to update right now you can also use
oprofile.force_arch_perfmon=1 (added in the next patch) with 0.9.4

1dcdb5a9e7 oprofile: re-add force_arch_perfmon option
This re-adds the force_arch_perfmon option that was in the original
arch perfmon patchkit. Originally this was rejected in favour
of a generalized perfmon=name option, but it turned out implementing
the later in a reliable way is hard (and it would have been easy
to crash the kernel if a user gets it wrong)

But now Atom and Core i7 support being readded a user would
need to update their oprofile userland to beyond 0.9.4 to use oprofile again
on Atom or Core i7.

To avoid this problem readd the force_arch_perfmon option.

Impact: fix stuck NMIs and non-working oprofile on certain CPUs

Resetting the counter width of the performance counters on Intel's
Core2 CPUs, breaks the delivery of NMIs, when running in x86_64 mode.

82aa9a1829 perfcounters: fix "perf counters kills oprofile" bug, v2
Impact: fix kernel crash

Both oprofile and perfcounters register an NMI die handler, but only one
can handle the NMI.  Conveniently, oprofile unregisters it's notifier
when not actively in use, so setting it's notifier priority higher than
perfcounter's allows oprofile to borrow the NMI for the duration of it's
run.  Tested/works both as module and built-in.

While testing, I found that if kerneltop was generating NMIs at very
high frequency, the kernel may panic when oprofile registered it's
handler.  This turned out to be because oprofile registers it's handler
before reset_value has been allocated, so if an NMI comes in while it's
still setting up, kabOom.  Rather than try more invasive changes, I
followed the lead of other places in op_model_ppro.c, and simply
returned in that highly unlikely event.  (debug warnings attached)

1acda878e2 oprofile: use new data sample format for ibs
The new ring buffer implementation allows the storage of samples with
different size. This patch implements the usage of the new sample
format to store ibs samples in the cpu buffer. Until now, writing to
the cpu buffer could lead to incomplete sampling sequences since IBS
samples were transfered in multiple samples. Due to a full buffer,
data could be lost at any time. This can't happen any more since the
complete data is reserved in advance and then stored in a single
sample.

ae735e9964 oprofile: rework implementation of cpu buffer events
Special events such as task or context switches are marked with an
escape code in the cpu buffer followed by an event code or a task
identifier. There is one escape code per event. To make escape
sequences also available for data samples the internal cpu buffer
format must be changed. The current implementation does not allow the
extension of event codes since this would lead to collisions with the
task identifiers. To avoid this, this patch introduces an event mask
that allows the storage of multiple events with one escape code. Now,
task identifiers are stored in the data section of the sample. The
implementation also allows the usage of custom data in a sample. As a
side effect the new code is much more readable and easier to
understand.

Hi Alan,

Looking at the kernel driver code for oprofile it can return the "i386/p6" for
the cpu_type. However, looking at the user-space oprofile code there isn't the
matching entry in libop/op_cpu_type.c or the events/unit_mask files in
events/i386 directory.

The Intel AP-485 says this is a "Intel Pentium M processor model D". Seems like
the oprofile kernel driver should be identifying the processor as "i386/p6_mobile"

The driver identification code doesn't look quite right in nmi_init.c

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/sfr/linux-next.git;a=blob;f=arch/x86/oprofile/nmi_int.c;h=022cd41ea9b4106e5884277096e80e9088a7c7a9;hb=HEAD

has:

409         case 10 ... 13:
410                 *cpu_type = "i386/p6";
411                 break;

Referring to the Intel AP-485:
case 10 and 11 should produce "i386/piii"
case 13 should produce "i386/p6_mobile"

I didn't see anything for case 12.

Something like the attached patch. I don't have a celeron machine to verify that
changes in this area of the kernel fix thing.
