2012-07-20s390/comments: unify copyright messages and remove file namesHeiko Carstens1-4/+2
Remove the file name from the comment at top of many files. In most cases the file name was wrong anyway, so it's rather pointless. Also unify the IBM copyright statement. We did have a lot of sightly different statements and wanted to change them one after another whenever a file gets touched. However that never happened. Instead people start to take the old/"wrong" statements to use as a template for new files. So unify all of them in one go. Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com>

2011-12-19oprofile: Fix uninitialized memory access when writing to writing to oprofilefsRobert Richter1-1/+1
If oprofilefs_ulong_from_user() is called with count equals zero, *val remains unchanged. Depending on the implementation it might be uninitialized. Change oprofilefs_ulong_from_user()'s interface to return count on success. Thus, we are able to return early if count equals zero which avoids using *val uninitialized. Fixing all users of oprofilefs_ulong_ from_user(). This follows write syscall implementation when count is zero: "If count is zero ... [and if] no errors are detected, 0 will be returned without causing any other effect."

2011-12-07oprofile, s390: Add event interface to the System z hardware sampling moduleAndreas Krebbel1-29/+343
With this patch the OProfile Basic Mode Sampling support for System z is enhanced with a counter file system. That way hardware sampling can be configured using the user space tools with only little modifications. With the patch by default new cpu_types (s390/z10, s390/z196) are returned in order to indicate that we are running a CPU which provides the hardware sampling facility. Existing user space tools will complain about an unknown cpu type. In order to be compatible with existing user space tools the `cpu_type' module parameter has been added. Setting the parameter to `timer' will force the module to return `timer' as cpu_type. The module will still try to use hardware sampling if available and the hwsampling virtual filesystem will be also be available for configuration. So this has a different effect than using the generic oprofile module parameter `timer=1'. If the basic mode sampling is enabled on the machine and the cpu_type=timer parameter is not used the kernel module will provide the following virtual filesystem: /dev/oprofile/0/enabled /dev/oprofile/0/event /dev/oprofile/0/count /dev/oprofile/0/unit_mask /dev/oprofile/0/kernel /dev/oprofile/0/user In the counter file system only the values of 'enabled', 'count', 'kernel', and 'user' are evaluated by the kernel module. Everything else must contain fixed values. The 'event' value only supports a single event - HWSAMPLING with value 0. The 'count' value specifies the hardware sampling rate as it is passed to the CPU measurement facility. The 'kernel' and 'user' flags can now be used to filter for samples when using hardware sampling. Additionally also the following file will be created: /dev/oprofile/timer/enabled This will always be the inverted value of /dev/oprofile/0/enabled. 0 is not accepted without hardware sampling.

2011-06-22[S390] hwsampler: Set a sane default sampling rateChristian Borntraeger1-1/+1
The sampling interval for the hardware sampler is specified in cycles. (see SA23-2260-01 The Load-Program-Parameter and the CPU-Measurement Facilities) The current default value will therefore result in millions of samples. This patch changes the default sampling interval to 4M, which will result in ~1500 samples per second on a z196 reducing the overhead of sampling.

2011-02-15oprofile, s390: Rework hwsampler implementationRobert Richter1-1/+0
This patch is a rework of the hwsampler oprofile implementation that has been applied recently. Now there are less non-architectural changes. The only changes are: * introduction of oprofile_add_ext_hw_sample(), and * removal of section attributes of oprofile_timer_init/_exit(). To setup hwsampler for oprofile we need to modify start()/stop() callbacks and additional hwsampler control files in oprofilefs. We do not reinitialize the timer or hwsampler mode by restarting calling init/exit() anymore, instead hwsampler_running is used to switch the mode directly in oprofile_hwsampler_start/_stop(). For locking reasons there is also hwsampler_file that reflects the value in oprofilefs. The overall diffstat of the oprofile s390 hwsampler implemenation shows the low impact to non-architectural code: arch/Kconfig | 3 + arch/s390/Kconfig | 1 + arch/s390/oprofile/Makefile | 2 +- arch/s390/oprofile/hwsampler.c | 1256 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ arch/s390/oprofile/hwsampler.h | 113 +++ arch/s390/oprofile/hwsampler_files.c | 162 +++++ arch/s390/oprofile/init.c | 6 +- drivers/oprofile/cpu_buffer.c | 24 +- drivers/oprofile/timer_int.c | 4 +- include/linux/oprofile.h | 7 + 10 files changed, 1567 insertions(+), 11 deletions(-) Acked-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Robert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com>
2011-02-15oprofile, s390: Enhance OProfile to support System zs hardware sampling featureHeinz Graalfs1-1/+6
OProfile is enhanced to export all files for controlling System z's hardware sampling, and to invoke hwsampler exported functions to initialize and use System z's hardware sampling. The patch invokes hwsampler_setup() during oprofile init and exports following hwsampler files under oprofilefs if hwsampler's setup succeeded: A new directory for hardware sampling based files /dev/oprofile/hwsampling/ The userland daemon must explicitly write to the following files to disable (or enable) hardware based sampling /dev/oprofile/hwsampling/hwsampler to modify the actual sampling rate /dev/oprofile/hwsampling/hw_interval to modify the amount of sampling memory (measured in 4K pages) /dev/oprofile/hwsampling/hw_sdbt_blocks The following files are read only and show the possible minimum sampling rate /dev/oprofile/hwsampling/hw_min_interval the possible maximum sampling rate /dev/oprofile/hwsampling/hw_max_interval The patch splits the oprofile_timer_[init/exit] function so that it can be also called through user context (oprofilefs) to avoid kernel oops.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
