x86/insn: perf tools: Add new xsave instructions

2015-09-04T15:01:04+00:00

Add xsavec, xsaves and xrstors to the op code map and the perf tools new
instructions test.  To run the test:

  $ tools/perf/perf test "x86 ins"
  39: Test x86 instruction decoder - new instructions          : Ok

Or to see the details:

  $ tools/perf/perf test -v "x86 ins" 2>&1 | grep 'xsave\|xrst'

For information about xsavec, xsaves and xrstors, refer the Intel SDM.

x86/insn: perf tools: Add new memory protection keys instructions

2015-09-04T15:01:03+00:00

Add rdpkru and wrpkru to the op code map and the perf tools new
instructions test.  In the case of the test, only the bytes can be
tested at the moment since binutils doesn't support the instructions
yet.  To run the test:

  $ tools/perf/perf test "x86 ins"
  39: Test x86 instruction decoder - new instructions          : Ok

Or to see the details:

  $ tools/perf/perf test -v "x86 ins" 2>&1 | grep pkru

For information about rdpkru and wrpkru, refer the Intel SDM.

x86/insn: perf tools: Add new memory instructions

2015-09-04T15:01:03+00:00

2014) describes 3 new memory instructions, namely clflushopt, clwb and
pcommit.  Add them to the op code map and the perf tools new
instructions test. e.g.

  $ tools/perf/perf test "x86 ins"

x86/insn: perf tools: Pedantically tweak opcode map for MPX instructions

2015-09-04T15:01:02+00:00

The MPX instructions are presently not described in the SDM
opcode maps, and there are not encoding characters for bnd
registers, address method or operand type.  So the kernel
opcode map is using 'Gv' for bnd registers and 'Ev' for
everything else.  That is fine because the instruction
decoder does not use that information anyway, except as
an indication that there is a ModR/M byte.

Nevertheless, in some cases the 'Gv' and 'Ev' are the wrong
way around, BNDLDX and BNDSTX have 2 operands not 3, and it
wouldn't hurt to identify the mandatory prefixes.

This has no effect on the decoding of valid instructions,
but the addition of the mandatory prefixes will cause some
invalid instructions to error out that wouldn't have
previously.

Note that perf tools has a copy of the instruction decoder
and provides a test for new instructions which includes MPX
instructions e.g.

  $ perf test "x86 ins"
  39: Test x86 instruction decoder - new instructions          : Ok

Or to see the details:

  $ perf test -v "x86 ins"

Commiter notes:

And to see these MPX instructions specifically:

  $ perf test -v "x86 ins" 2>&1 | grep bndldx | head -3
  Decoded ok: 0f 1a 00             	bndldx (%eax),%bnd0
  Decoded ok: 0f 1a 05 78 56 34 12 	bndldx 0x12345678,%bnd0
  Decoded ok: 0f 1a 18             	bndldx (%eax),%bnd3
  $ perf test -v "x86 ins" 2>&1 | grep bndstx | head -3
  Decoded ok: 0f 1b 00             	bndstx %bnd0,(%eax)
  Decoded ok: 0f 1b 05 78 56 34 12 	bndstx %bnd0,0x12345678
  Decoded ok: 0f 1b 18             	bndstx %bnd3,(%eax)

x86/asm/delay: Introduce an MWAITX-based delay with a configurable timer

2015-08-22T12:52:16+00:00

MWAITX can enable a timer and a corresponding timer value
specified in SW P0 clocks. The SW P0 frequency is the same as
TSC. The timer provides an upper bound on how long the
instruction waits before exiting.

This way, a delay function in the kernel can leverage that
MWAITX timer of MWAITX.

When a CPU core executes MWAITX, it will be quiesced in a
waiting phase, diminishing its power consumption. This way, we
can save power in comparison to our default TSC-based delays.

A simple test shows that:

	$ cat /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000\:00\:18.4/hwmon/hwmon0/power1_acc
	$ sleep 10000s
	$ cat /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000\:00\:18.4/hwmon/hwmon0/power1_acc

Results:

	* TSC-based default delay:      485115 uWatts average power
	* MWAITX-based delay:           252738 uWatts average power

Thus, that's about 240 milliWatts less power consumption. The
test method relies on the support of AMD CPU accumulated power
algorithm in fam15h_power for which patches are forthcoming.

x86/asm/tsc: Add rdtsc_ordered() and use it in trivial call sites

2015-07-06T13:23:29+00:00

rdtsc_barrier(); rdtsc() is an unnecessary mouthful and requires
more thought than should be necessary. Add an rdtsc_ordered()
helper and replace the trivial call sites with it.

This should not change generated code. The duplication of the
fence asm is temporary.

x86/asm/tsc: Rename native_read_tsc() to rdtsc()

2015-07-06T13:23:28+00:00

Now that there is no paravirt TSC, the "native" is
inappropriate. The function does RDTSC, so give it the obvious
name: rdtsc().
