1 | HiSilicon SoC uncore Performance Monitoring Unit (PMU) |
| 2 | ====================================================== | |
| 3 | The HiSilicon SoC chip includes various independent system device PMUs | |
| 4 | such as L3 cache (L3C), Hydra Home Agent (HHA) and DDRC. These PMUs are | |
| 5 | independent and have hardware logic to gather statistics and performance | |
| 6 | information. | |
| 7 | ||
| 8 | The HiSilicon SoC encapsulates multiple CPU and IO dies. Each CPU cluster | |
| 9 | (CCL) is made up of 4 cpu cores sharing one L3 cache; each CPU die is | |
| 10 | called Super CPU cluster (SCCL) and is made up of 6 CCLs. Each SCCL has | |
| 11 | two HHAs (0 - 1) and four DDRCs (0 - 3), respectively. | |
| 12 | ||
| 13 | HiSilicon SoC uncore PMU driver | |
| 14 | --------------------------------------- | |
| 15 | Each device PMU has separate registers for event counting, control and | |
| 16 | interrupt, and the PMU driver shall register perf PMU drivers like L3C, | |
| 17 | HHA and DDRC etc. The available events and configuration options shall | |
| 18 | be described in the sysfs, see : | |
| 19 | /sys/devices/hisi_sccl{X}_<l3c{Y}/hha{Y}/ddrc{Y}>/, or | |
| 20 | /sys/bus/event_source/devices/hisi_sccl{X}_<l3c{Y}/hha{Y}/ddrc{Y}>. | |
| 21 | The "perf list" command shall list the available events from sysfs. | |
| 22 | ||
| 23 | Each L3C, HHA and DDRC is registered as a separate PMU with perf. The PMU | |
| 24 | name will appear in event listing as hisi_sccl<sccl-id>_module<index-id>. | |
| 25 | where "sccl-id" is the identifier of the SCCL and "index-id" is the index of | |
| 26 | module. | |
| 27 | e.g. hisi_sccl3_l3c0/rd_hit_cpipe is READ_HIT_CPIPE event of L3C index #0 in | |
| 28 | SCCL ID #3. | |
| 29 | e.g. hisi_sccl1_hha0/rx_operations is RX_OPERATIONS event of HHA index #0 in | |
| 30 | SCCL ID #1. | |
| 31 | ||
| 32 | The driver also provides a "cpumask" sysfs attribute, which shows the CPU core | |
| 33 | ID used to count the uncore PMU event. | |
| 34 | ||
| 35 | Example usage of perf: | |
| 36 | $# perf list | |
| 37 | hisi_sccl3_l3c0/rd_hit_cpipe/ [kernel PMU event] | |
| 38 | ------------------------------------------ | |
| 39 | hisi_sccl3_l3c0/wr_hit_cpipe/ [kernel PMU event] | |
| 40 | ------------------------------------------ | |
| 41 | hisi_sccl1_l3c0/rd_hit_cpipe/ [kernel PMU event] | |
| 42 | ------------------------------------------ | |
| 43 | hisi_sccl1_l3c0/wr_hit_cpipe/ [kernel PMU event] | |
| 44 | ------------------------------------------ | |
| 45 | ||
| 46 | $# perf stat -a -e hisi_sccl3_l3c0/rd_hit_cpipe/ sleep 5 | |
| 47 | $# perf stat -a -e hisi_sccl3_l3c0/config=0x02/ sleep 5 | |
| 48 | ||
| 49 | The current driver does not support sampling. So "perf record" is unsupported. | |
| 50 | Also attach to a task is unsupported as the events are all uncore. | |
| 51 | ||
| 52 | Note: Please contact the maintainer for a complete list of events supported for | |
| 53 | the PMU devices in the SoC and its information if needed. |
