perf vendor events intel: Add NO_NMI_WATCHDOG metric constraint
Add NO_NMI_WATCHDOG metric constraint to Page_Walks_Utilization for Sky Lake
and Cascade Lake.
Committer testing:
On a Lenovo T480S, Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-8650U Kaby Lake, that looking at x86's
mapfile.csv file is a:
$ grep -w skylake tools/perf/pmu-events/arch/x86/mapfile.csv
GenuineIntel-6-[4589]E,v24,skylake,core
$
So uses the constraint added in this patch in this file:
tools/perf/pmu-events/arch/x86/skylake/skl-metrics.json
Before:
# perf stat -a -M Page_Walks_Utilization sleep 2
Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
<not counted> itlb_misses.walk_pending (0.00%)
<not counted> dtlb_load_misses.walk_pending (0.00%)
<not counted> dtlb_store_misses.walk_pending (0.00%)
<not counted> ept.walk_pending (0.00%)
<not counted> cycles (0.00%)

Some events weren't counted. Try disabling the NMI watchdog:
echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/nmi_watchdog
perf stat ...
echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/nmi_watchdog
The events in group usually have to be from the same PMU. Try reorganizing the group.
#
After:
# perf stat -a -M Page_Walks_Utilization sleep 2
Splitting metric group Page_Walks_Utilization into standalone metrics.
Try disabling the NMI watchdog to comply NO_NMI_WATCHDOG metric constraint:
echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/nmi_watchdog
perf stat ...
echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/nmi_watchdog

Before and after, if we disable the nmi_watchdog we get:
# echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/nmi_watchdog
# perf stat -a -M Page_Walks_Utilization sleep 2
