* oprofile, s390: Rework hwsampler implementationRobert Richter2011-02-152-23/+38
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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>
* oprofile, s390: Enhance OProfile to support System zs hardware sampling featureHeinz Graalfs2011-02-153-2/+153
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* oprofile, s390: Add support for hardware based sampling on System z processorsHeinz Graalfs2011-02-153-1/+1370
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds support for hardware based sampling on System z processors (models z10 and up). System z's hardware sampling is described in detail in: SA23-2260-01 "The Load-Program-Parameter and CPU-Measurement Facilities" The patch introduces - support for System z's hardware sampler in OProfile's kernel module - it adds functions that control all hardware sampling related operations as: - checking if hardware sampling feature is available, i.e.: on System z models z10 and up, in LPAR mode only, and authorised during LPAR activation - allocating memory for the hardware sampling feature - starting/stopping hardware sampling All functions required to start and stop hardware sampling have to be invoked by the oprofile kernel module as provided by the other patches of this patch set. In case hardware based sampling cannot be setup standard timer based sampling is used by OProfile.

* Combine instrumentation menus in kernel/Kconfig.instrumentationMathieu Desnoyers2007-10-191-22/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Quoting Randy: "It seems sad that this patch sources Kconfig.marker, a 7-line file, 20-something times. Yes, you (we) don't want to put those 7 lines into 20-something different files, so sourcing is the right thing. However, what you did for avr32 seems more on the right track to me: make _one_ Instrumentation support menu that includes PROFILING, OPROFILE, KPROBES, and MARKERS and then use (source) that in all of the arches."

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!
