Per-thread events with a cpu filter, i.e., cpu != -1, were not reporting correct timings when the thread never ran on the monitored cpu. The time enabled was reported as a negative value. This patch fixes the problem by updating tstamp_stopped, tstamp_running in event_sched_out() for events with filters and which are marked as INACTIVE. The function group_sched_out() is modified to systematically call into event_sched_out() to avoid duplicating the timing adjustment code twice. With the patch, I now get: $ task_cpu -i -e unhalted_core_cycles,unhalted_core_cycles noploop 2 noploop for 2 seconds CPU0 0 unhalted_core_cycles (ena=1,991,136,594, run=0) CPU0 0 unhalted_core_cycles (ena=1,991,136,594, run=0) CPU1 0 unhalted_core_cycles (ena=1,991,136,594, run=0) CPU1 0 unhalted_core_cycles (ena=1,991,136,594, run=0) CPU2 0 unhalted_core_cycles (ena=1,991,136,594, run=0) CPU2 0 unhalted_core_cycles (ena=1,991,136,594, run=0) CPU3 4,747,990,931 unhalted_core_cycles (ena=1,991,136,594, run=1,991,136,594) CPU3 4,747,990,931 unhalted_core_cycles (ena=1,991,136,594, run=1,991,136,594) Signed-off-by: Stephane Eranian <er...@gm...> diff --git a/kernel/perf_event.c b/kernel/perf_event.c index 0d38f27..d196412 100644 --- a/kernel/perf_event.c +++ b/kernel/perf_event.c @@ -402,11 +402,31 @@ static void perf_group_detach(struct perf_event *event) } } +static inline int +event_filter_match(struct perf_event *event) +{ + return event->cpu == -1 || event->cpu == smp_processor_id(); +} + static void event_sched_out(struct perf_event *event, struct perf_cpu_context *cpuctx, struct perf_event_context *ctx) { + u64 delta; + /* + * an event which could not be activated because of + * filter mismatch still needs to have its timings + * maintained, otherwise bogus information is return + * via read() for time_enabled, time_running + */ + if (event->state == PERF_EVENT_STATE_INACTIVE + && !event_filter_match(event)) { + delta = ctx->time - event->tstamp_stopped; + event->tstamp_running += delta; + event->tstamp_stopped = ctx->time; + } + if (event->state != PERF_EVENT_STATE_ACTIVE) return; @@ -432,9 +452,7 @@ group_sched_out(struct perf_event *group_event, struct perf_event_context *ctx) { struct perf_event *event; - - if (group_event->state != PERF_EVENT_STATE_ACTIVE) - return; + int state = group_event->state; event_sched_out(group_event, cpuctx, ctx); @@ -444,7 +462,7 @@ group_sched_out(struct perf_event *group_event, list_for_each_entry(event, &group_event->sibling_list, group_entry) event_sched_out(event, cpuctx, ctx); - if (group_event->attr.exclusive) + if (state == PERF_EVENT_STATE_ACTIVE && group_event->attr.exclusive) cpuctx->exclusive = 0; } |
