perf tools: Add Hygon Dhyana support

2019-02-12T19:02:09+00:00

[ Upstream commit 4787eff3fa88f62fede6ed7afa06477ae6bf984d ]

The tool perf is useful for the performance analysis on the Hygon Dhyana
platform. But right now there is no Hygon support for it to analyze the
KVM guest os data. So add Hygon Dhyana support to it by checking vendor
string to share the code path of AMD.

perf intel-pt: Fix error with config term "pt=0"

2019-01-26T08:20:47+00:00

[ Upstream commit 1c6f709b9f96366cc47af23c05ecec9b8c0c392d ]

Users should never use 'pt=0', but if they do it may give a meaningless
error:

	$ perf record -e intel_pt/pt=0/u uname
	Error:
	The sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 22 (Invalid argument) for
	event (intel_pt/pt=0/u).

Fix that by forcing 'pt=1'.

Committer testing:

  # perf record -e intel_pt/pt=0/u uname
  Error:
  The sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 22 (Invalid argument) for event (intel_pt/pt=0/u).
  /bin/dmesg | grep -i perf may provide additional information.

  # perf record -e intel_pt/pt=0/u uname
  pt=0 doesn't make sense, forcing pt=1

perf machine: Record if a arch has a single user/kernel address space

2019-01-09T16:45:56+00:00

commit ec1891afae740be581ecf5abc8bda74c4549203f upstream.

Some architectures have a single address space for kernel and user
addresses, which makes it possible to determine if an address is in
kernel space or user space. Some don't, e.g.: sparc.

Cache that info in perf_env so that, for instance, code needing to
fallback failed symbol lookups at the kernel space in single address
space arches can lookup at userspace.

KVM: PPC: Book3S: Simplify external interrupt handling

2018-10-09T05:04:27+00:00

Currently we use two bits in the vcpu pending_exceptions bitmap to
indicate that an external interrupt is pending for the guest, one
for "one-shot" interrupts that are cleared when delivered, and one
for interrupts that persist until cleared by an explicit action of
the OS (e.g. an acknowledge to an interrupt controller).  The
BOOK3S_IRQPRIO_EXTERNAL bit is used for one-shot interrupt requests
and BOOK3S_IRQPRIO_EXTERNAL_LEVEL is used for persisting interrupts.

In practice BOOK3S_IRQPRIO_EXTERNAL never gets used, because our
Book3S platforms generally, and pseries in particular, expect
external interrupt requests to persist until they are acknowledged
at the interrupt controller.  That combined with the confusion
introduced by having two bits for what is essentially the same thing
makes it attractive to simplify things by only using one bit.  This
patch does that.

With this patch there is only BOOK3S_IRQPRIO_EXTERNAL, and by default
it has the semantics of a persisting interrupt.  In order to avoid
breaking the ABI, we introduce a new "external_oneshot" flag which
preserves the behaviour of the KVM_INTERRUPT ioctl with the
KVM_INTERRUPT_SET argument.
