* perf intel-pt: Fix "Unexpected indirect branch" errorAdrian Hunter2018-06-061-2/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | Some Atom CPUs can produce FUP packets that contain NLIP (next linear instruction pointer) instead of CLIP (current linear instruction pointer). That will result in "Unexpected indirect branch" errors. Fix by comparing IP to NLIP in that case.

* perf intel-pt: Fix MTC timing after overflowAdrian Hunter2018-06-061-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | On some platforms, overflows will clear before MTC wraparound, and there is no following TSC/TMA packet. In that case the previous TMA is valid. Since there will be a valid TMA either way, stop setting 'have_tma' to false upon overflow.

* perf intel-pt: Fix timestamp following overflowAdrian Hunter2018-03-081-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | timestamp_insn_cnt is used to estimate the timestamp based on the number of instructions since the last known timestamp. If the estimate is not accurate enough decoding might not be correctly synchronized with side-band events causing more trace errors. However there are always timestamps following an overflow, so the estimate is not needed and can indeed result in more errors. Suppress the estimate by setting timestamp_insn_cnt to zero.

* perf intel-pt: Fix error recovery from missing TIP packetAdrian Hunter2018-03-081-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a TIP packet is expected but there is a different packet, it is an error. However the unexpected packet might be something important like a TSC packet, so after the error, it is necessary to continue from there, rather than the next packet. That is achieved by setting pkt_step to zero.

* perf intel-pt: Do not use TSC packets for calculating CPU cycles to TSCAdrian Hunter2017-06-301-0/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | CBR (core-to-bus ratio) packets provide an indication of CPU frequency. A more accurate measure can be made by counting the cycles (given by CYC packets) in between other timing packets (either MTC or TSC). Using TSC packets has at least 2 issues: 1) timing might have stopped (e.g. mwait) or 2) TSC packets within PSB+ might slip past CYC packets. For now, simply do not use TSC packets for calculating CPU cycles to TSC. That leaves the case where 2 MTC packets are used, otherwise falling back to the CBR value.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The kernel now supports the disabling of branch tracing, however the decoder assumes branch tracing is always enabled. Pass through a parameter to indicate whether branch tracing is enabled and use it to avoid cases when the decoder is expecting branch packets. There are 2 such cases. First, FUP packets which can bind to an IP even when there is no branch tracing. Secondly, the decoder will try to use branch packets to find an IP to start decoding or to recover from errors.

* perf intel-pt: Enable decoder to handle TIP.PGD with missing IPAdrian Hunter2016-09-291-0/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When address filters are used, the decoder must detect the end of a filter region (or a branch into a tracestop region) by matching Packet Generation Disabled (TIP.PGD) packets against the object code using the IP given in the packet. However, due to errata SKL014 "Intel PT TIP.PGD May Not Have Target IP Payload", that IP may not be present. Enable the decoder to handle that by adding a new callback function 'pgd_ip()' which indicates whether the IP is not traced, in which case that is the point where the trace was disabled.

* perf intel-pt: Fix ip compressionAdrian Hunter2016-08-121-21/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The June 2015 Intel SDM introduced IP Compression types 4 and 6. Refer to section 36.4.2.2 Target IP (TIP) Packet - IP Compression. Existing Intel PT packet decoder did not support type 4, and got type 6 wrong. Because type 3 and type 4 have the same number of bytes, the packet 'count' has been changed from being the number of ip bytes to being the type code. That allows the Intel PT decoder to correctly decide whether to sign-extend or use the last ip. However that also meant the code had to be adjusted in a number of places. Currently hardware is not using the new compression types, so this fix has no effect on existing hardware.

* perf intel-pt: Fix potential loop foreverAdrian Hunter2015-09-281-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | TSC packets contain only 7 bytes of TSC. The 8th byte is assumed to change so infrequently that its value can be inferred. However the logic must cater for a 7 byte wraparound, which it does by adding 1 to the top byte. The existing code was doing that with a while loop even though the addition should only need to be done once. That logic won't work (will loop forever) if TSC wraps around at the 8th byte. Theoretically that would take at least 10 years, unless something else went wrong. And what else could go wrong. Well, if the chunks of trace data are processed out of order, it will make it look like the 7-byte TSC has gone backwards (i.e. wrapped). If that happens 256 times then stuck in the while loop it will be. Fix that by getting rid of the unnecessary while loop.
