commit11745ecfe8upstream. Existing code was generating bogus counts for the SNB IMC bandwidth counters: $ perf stat -a -I 1000 -e uncore_imc/data_reads/,uncore_imc/data_writes/ 1.000327813 1,024.03 MiB uncore_imc/data_reads/ 1.000327813 20.73 MiB uncore_imc/data_writes/ 2.000580153 261,120.00 MiB uncore_imc/data_reads/ 2.000580153 23.28 MiB uncore_imc/data_writes/ The problem was introduced by commit:07ce734dd8("perf/x86/intel/uncore: Clean up client IMC") Where the read_counter callback was replace to point to the generic uncore_mmio_read_counter() function. The SNB IMC counters are freerunnig 32-bit counters laid out contiguously in MMIO. But uncore_mmio_read_counter() is using a readq() call to read from MMIO therefore reading 64-bit from MMIO. Although this is okay for the uncore_perf_event_update() function because it is shifting the value based on the actual counter width to compute a delta, it is not okay for the uncore_pmu_event_start() which is simply reading the counter and therefore priming the event->prev_count with a bogus value which is responsible for causing bogus deltas in the perf stat command above. The fix is to reintroduce the custom callback for read_counter for the SNB IMC PMU and use readl() instead of readq(). With the change the output of perf stat is back to normal: $ perf stat -a -I 1000 -e uncore_imc/data_reads/,uncore_imc/data_writes/ 1.000120987 296.94 MiB uncore_imc/data_reads/ 1.000120987 138.42 MiB uncore_imc/data_writes/ 2.000403144 175.91 MiB uncore_imc/data_reads/ 2.000403144 68.50 MiB uncore_imc/data_writes/ Fixes:07ce734dd8("perf/x86/intel/uncore: Clean up client IMC") Signed-off-by: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Reviewed-by: Kan Liang <kan.liang@linux.intel.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220803160031.1379788-1-eranian@google.com Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
