HiSilicon SoC uncore Performance Monitoring Unit (PMU)
|
|
======================================================
|
|
|
|
The HiSilicon SoC chip includes various independent system device PMUs
|
|
such as L3 cache (L3C), Hydra Home Agent (HHA) and DDRC. These PMUs are
|
|
independent and have hardware logic to gather statistics and performance
|
|
information.
|
|
|
|
The HiSilicon SoC encapsulates multiple CPU and IO dies. Each CPU cluster
|
|
(CCL) is made up of 4 cpu cores sharing one L3 cache; each CPU die is
|
|
called Super CPU cluster (SCCL) and is made up of 6 CCLs. Each SCCL has
|
|
two HHAs (0 - 1) and four DDRCs (0 - 3), respectively.
|
|
|
|
HiSilicon SoC uncore PMU driver
|
|
-------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Each device PMU has separate registers for event counting, control and
|
|
interrupt, and the PMU driver shall register perf PMU drivers like L3C,
|
|
HHA and DDRC etc. The available events and configuration options shall
|
|
be described in the sysfs, see:
|
|
|
|
/sys/devices/hisi_sccl{X}_<l3c{Y}/hha{Y}/ddrc{Y}>/, or
|
|
/sys/bus/event_source/devices/hisi_sccl{X}_<l3c{Y}/hha{Y}/ddrc{Y}>.
|
|
The "perf list" command shall list the available events from sysfs.
|
|
|
|
Each L3C, HHA and DDRC is registered as a separate PMU with perf. The PMU
|
|
name will appear in event listing as hisi_sccl<sccl-id>_module<index-id>.
|
|
where "sccl-id" is the identifier of the SCCL and "index-id" is the index of
|
|
module.
|
|
|
|
e.g. hisi_sccl3_l3c0/rd_hit_cpipe is READ_HIT_CPIPE event of L3C index #0 in
|
|
SCCL ID #3.
|
|
|
|
e.g. hisi_sccl1_hha0/rx_operations is RX_OPERATIONS event of HHA index #0 in
|
|
SCCL ID #1.
|
|
|
|
The driver also provides a "cpumask" sysfs attribute, which shows the CPU core
|
|
ID used to count the uncore PMU event.
|
|
|
|
Example usage of perf::
|
|
|
|
$# perf list
|
|
hisi_sccl3_l3c0/rd_hit_cpipe/ [kernel PMU event]
|
|
------------------------------------------
|
|
hisi_sccl3_l3c0/wr_hit_cpipe/ [kernel PMU event]
|
|
------------------------------------------
|
|
hisi_sccl1_l3c0/rd_hit_cpipe/ [kernel PMU event]
|
|
------------------------------------------
|
|
hisi_sccl1_l3c0/wr_hit_cpipe/ [kernel PMU event]
|
|
------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
$# perf stat -a -e hisi_sccl3_l3c0/rd_hit_cpipe/ sleep 5
|
|
$# perf stat -a -e hisi_sccl3_l3c0/config=0x02/ sleep 5
|
|
|
|
For HiSilicon uncore PMU v2 whose identifier is 0x30, the topology is the same
|
|
as PMU v1, but some new functions are added to the hardware.
|
|
|
|
(a) L3C PMU supports filtering by core/thread within the cluster which can be
|
|
specified as a bitmap::
|
|
|
|
$# perf stat -a -e hisi_sccl3_l3c0/config=0x02,tt_core=0x3/ sleep 5
|
|
|
|
This will only count the operations from core/thread 0 and 1 in this cluster.
|
|
|
|
(b) Tracetag allow the user to chose to count only read, write or atomic
|
|
operations via the tt_req parameeter in perf. The default value counts all
|
|
operations. tt_req is 3bits, 3'b100 represents read operations, 3'b101
|
|
represents write operations, 3'b110 represents atomic store operations and
|
|
3'b111 represents atomic non-store operations, other values are reserved::
|
|
|
|
$# perf stat -a -e hisi_sccl3_l3c0/config=0x02,tt_req=0x4/ sleep 5
|
|
|
|
This will only count the read operations in this cluster.
|
|
|
|
(c) Datasrc allows the user to check where the data comes from. It is 5 bits.
|
|
Some important codes are as follows:
|
|
5'b00001: comes from L3C in this die;
|
|
5'b01000: comes from L3C in the cross-die;
|
|
5'b01001: comes from L3C which is in another socket;
|
|
5'b01110: comes from the local DDR;
|
|
5'b01111: comes from the cross-die DDR;
|
|
5'b10000: comes from cross-socket DDR;
|
|
etc, it is mainly helpful to find that the data source is nearest from the CPU
|
|
cores. If datasrc_cfg is used in the multi-chips, the datasrc_skt shall be
|
|
configured in perf command::
|
|
|
|
$# perf stat -a -e hisi_sccl3_l3c0/config=0xb9,datasrc_cfg=0xE/,
|
|
hisi_sccl3_l3c0/config=0xb9,datasrc_cfg=0xF/ sleep 5
|
|
|
|
(d)Some HiSilicon SoCs encapsulate multiple CPU and IO dies. Each CPU die
|
|
contains several Compute Clusters (CCLs). The I/O dies are called Super I/O
|
|
clusters (SICL) containing multiple I/O clusters (ICLs). Each CCL/ICL in the
|
|
SoC has a unique ID. Each ID is 11bits, include a 6-bit SCCL-ID and 5-bit
|
|
CCL/ICL-ID. For I/O die, the ICL-ID is followed by:
|
|
5'b00000: I/O_MGMT_ICL;
|
|
5'b00001: Network_ICL;
|
|
5'b00011: HAC_ICL;
|
|
5'b10000: PCIe_ICL;
|
|
|
|
Users could configure IDs to count data come from specific CCL/ICL, by setting
|
|
srcid_cmd & srcid_msk, and data desitined for specific CCL/ICL by setting
|
|
tgtid_cmd & tgtid_msk. A set bit in srcid_msk/tgtid_msk means the PMU will not
|
|
check the bit when matching against the srcid_cmd/tgtid_cmd.
|
|
|
|
If all of these options are disabled, it can works by the default value that
|
|
doesn't distinguish the filter condition and ID information and will return
|
|
the total counter values in the PMU counters.
|
|
|
|
The current driver does not support sampling. So "perf record" is unsupported.
|
|
Also attach to a task is unsupported as the events are all uncore.
|
|
|
|
Note: Please contact the maintainer for a complete list of events supported for
|
|
the PMU devices in the SoC and its information if needed.
