perf top: Wait for a minimal set of events before reading first snapshot

The first snapshot reading often occur before any events have
been read in the mapped perfcounter files.

Just wait until we have at least one event before starting the
snapshot, or the delay before the first set of entries to be
displayed may be long in case of low refresh rate.

Note: we could also use a semaphore to wait before
"print_entries" number of eveents is reached, but again this
value is tunable and we can't ensure we will even reach it.
Also we could base on a default mimimum set of entries for the
first refresh, say 15, but again, the minimal sample is
tunable, and we could end up displaying nothing until we have a
minimal default set of events, which can take some time in case
of high samples filters.

Hence this simple solution which partially covers the default
case.

perf_counter: Implement generalized cache event types

Extend generic event enumeration with the PERF_TYPE_HW_CACHE
method.

This is a 3-dimensional space:

       { L1-D, L1-I, L2, ITLB, DTLB, BPU } x
       { load, store, prefetch } x
       { accesses, misses }

User-space passes in the 3 coordinates and the kernel provides
a counter. (if the hardware supports that type and if the
combination makes sense.)

Combinations that make no sense produce a -EINVAL.
Combinations that are not supported by the hardware produce -ENOTSUP.

Extend the tools to deal with this, and rewrite the event symbol
parsing code with various popular aliases for the units and
access methods above. So 'l1-cache-miss' and 'l1d-read-ops' are
both valid aliases.

( x86 is supported for now, with the Nehalem event table filled in,
  and with Core2 and Atom having placeholder tables. )

The net improvement is significant, and it will be easier

perf_counter: Fix lockup with interrupting counters

Commit 8e3747c1 ("perf_counter: Change data head from u32 to u64")
changed the type of 'head' in struct perf_mmap_data from atomic_t
to atomic_long_t, but missed converting one use of atomic_read on
it to atomic_long_read.  The effect of using atomic_read rather than
atomic_long_read on powerpc (and other big-endian architectures) is
that we get the high half of the 64-bit quantity, resulting in the
cmpxchg retry loop in perf_output_begin spinning forever as soon as
data->head becomes non-zero.  On little-endian architectures such as
x86 we would get the low half, resulting in a lockup once data->head
becomes greater than 4G.

This fixes it by using atomic_long_read rather than atomic_read.

15 years agodrivers/char/mem.c: avoid OOM lockup during large reads from /dev/zero

drivers/char/mem.c: avoid OOM lockup during large reads from /dev/zero

While running 20 parallel instances of dd as follows:

  #!/bin/bash
  for i in `seq 1 20`; do
           dd if=/dev/zero of=/export/hda3/dd_$i bs=1073741824 count=1 &
  done
  wait

on a 16G machine, we noticed that rather than just killing the processes,
the entire kernel went down.  Stracing dd reveals that it first does an
mmap2, which makes 1GB worth of zero page mappings.  Then it performs a
read on those pages from /dev/zero, and finally it performs a write.

The machine died during the reads.  Looking at the code, it was noticed
that /dev/zero's read operation had been changed by
557ed1fa2620dc119adb86b34c614e152a629a80 ("remove ZERO_PAGE") from giving
zero page mappings to actually zeroing the page.

The zeroing of the pages causes physical pages to be allocated to the
process.  But, when the process exhausts all the memory that it can, the
kernel cannot kill it, as it is still in the kernel mode allocating more
memory.  Consequently, the kernel eventually crashes.

To fix this, I propose that when a fatal signal is pending during
/dev/zero read operation, we simply return and let the user process die.

perf_counter: Sleep before refresh using poll in perf top

perf top is refreshed every delay_secs the thread runs in such
loop:

while (sleep(delay_secs)) {

}

At the end of print_sym_table(), poll is used without sleep delay
to check if we have something from stdin.

It means that this check is done only every delay_secs, which can
be higher that 2 secs if the user defined a custom refresh rate.

We can drop sleep() here and directly use poll to wait between
refresh periods, so that the reaction after the user stops perf top
after typing "Enter" is immediate and doesn't suffer from the
delay_secs latency.

Nb: poll doesn't add any overhead that can parasite perf top measures
since it sleeps the entire timeout here.

drm: Hook up DPMS property handling in drm_crtc.c. Add drm_helper_connector_dpms.

Making the drm_crtc.c code recognize the DPMS property and invoke the
connector->dpms function doesn't remove any capability from the driver while
reducing code duplication.

That just highlighted the problem with the existing DPMS functions which
could turn off the connector, but failed to turn off any relevant crtcs. The
new drm_helper_connector_dpms function manages all of that, using the
drm_helper-specific crtc and encoder dpms functions, automatically computing
the appropriate DPMS level for each object in the system.

This fixes the current troubles in the i915 driver which left PLLs, pipes
and planes running while in DPMS_OFF mode or even while they were unused.
