From 2565711fb7d7c28e0cd93c8971b520d1b10b857c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Zijlstra Date: Wed, 24 Sep 2014 13:48:42 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] perf: Improve the perf_sample_data struct layout This patch reorders fields in the perf_sample_data struct in order to minimize the number of cachelines touched in perf_sample_data_init(). It also removes some intializations which are redundant with the code in kernel/events/core.c Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1411559322-16548-7-git-send-email-eranian@google.com Cc: cebbert.lkml@gmail.com Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Cc: jolsa@redhat.com Cc: Linus Torvalds Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar --- include/linux/perf_event.h | 34 +++++++++++++++++----------------- kernel/events/core.c | 16 ++++++++-------- 2 files changed, 25 insertions(+), 25 deletions(-) diff --git a/include/linux/perf_event.h b/include/linux/perf_event.h index 68d46d536e24..486e84ccb1f9 100644 --- a/include/linux/perf_event.h +++ b/include/linux/perf_event.h @@ -580,35 +580,40 @@ extern u64 perf_event_read_value(struct perf_event *event, struct perf_sample_data { - u64 type; + /* + * Fields set by perf_sample_data_init(), group so as to + * minimize the cachelines touched. + */ + u64 addr; + struct perf_raw_record *raw; + struct perf_branch_stack *br_stack; + u64 period; + u64 weight; + u64 txn; + union perf_mem_data_src data_src; + /* + * The other fields, optionally {set,used} by + * perf_{prepare,output}_sample(). + */ + u64 type; u64 ip; struct { u32 pid; u32 tid; } tid_entry; u64 time; - u64 addr; u64 id; u64 stream_id; struct { u32 cpu; u32 reserved; } cpu_entry; - u64 period; - union perf_mem_data_src data_src; struct perf_callchain_entry *callchain; - struct perf_raw_record *raw; - struct perf_branch_stack *br_stack; struct perf_regs regs_user; struct perf_regs regs_intr; u64 stack_user_size; - u64 weight; - /* - * Transaction flags for abort events: - */ - u64 txn; -}; +} ____cacheline_aligned; /* default value for data source */ #define PERF_MEM_NA (PERF_MEM_S(OP, NA) |\ @@ -625,14 +630,9 @@ static inline void perf_sample_data_init(struct perf_sample_data *data, data->raw = NULL; data->br_stack = NULL; data->period = period; - data->regs_user.abi = PERF_SAMPLE_REGS_ABI_NONE; - data->regs_user.regs = NULL; - data->stack_user_size = 0; data->weight = 0; data->data_src.val = PERF_MEM_NA; data->txn = 0; - data->regs_intr.abi = PERF_SAMPLE_REGS_ABI_NONE; - data->regs_intr.regs = NULL; } extern void perf_output_sample(struct perf_output_handle *handle, diff --git a/kernel/events/core.c b/kernel/events/core.c index c2be1597ece7..3e19d3ebc29c 100644 --- a/kernel/events/core.c +++ b/kernel/events/core.c @@ -4471,8 +4471,11 @@ static void perf_sample_regs_user(struct perf_regs *regs_user, } if (regs) { - regs_user->regs = regs; regs_user->abi = perf_reg_abi(current); + regs_user->regs = regs; + } else { + regs_user->abi = PERF_SAMPLE_REGS_ABI_NONE; + regs_user->regs = NULL; } } @@ -4947,12 +4950,13 @@ void perf_prepare_sample(struct perf_event_header *header, header->size += size; } + if (sample_type & (PERF_SAMPLE_REGS_USER | PERF_SAMPLE_STACK_USER)) + perf_sample_regs_user(&data->regs_user, regs); + if (sample_type & PERF_SAMPLE_REGS_USER) { /* regs dump ABI info */ int size = sizeof(u64); - perf_sample_regs_user(&data->regs_user, regs); - if (data->regs_user.regs) { u64 mask = event->attr.sample_regs_user; size += hweight64(mask) * sizeof(u64); @@ -4968,15 +4972,11 @@ void perf_prepare_sample(struct perf_event_header *header, * in case new sample type is added, because we could eat * up the rest of the sample size. */ - struct perf_regs *uregs = &data->regs_user; u16 stack_size = event->attr.sample_stack_user; u16 size = sizeof(u64); - if (!uregs->abi) - perf_sample_regs_user(uregs, regs); - stack_size = perf_sample_ustack_size(stack_size, header->size, - uregs->regs); + data->regs_user.regs); /* * If there is something to dump, add space for the dump -- 2.20.1
