[ Upstream commit df4d29732fdad43a51284f826bec3e6ded177540 ]
It turns out that the NMI latency workaround from commit:
6d3edaae16c6 ("x86/perf/amd: Resolve NMI latency issues for active PMCs")
ends up being too conservative and results in the perf NMI handler claiming
NMIs too easily on AMD hardware when the NMI watchdog is active.
This has an impact, for example, on the hpwdt (HPE watchdog timer) module.
This module can produce an NMI that is used to reset the system. It
registers an NMI handler for the NMI_UNKNOWN type and relies on the fact
that nothing has claimed an NMI so that its handler will be invoked when
the watchdog device produces an NMI. After the referenced commit, the
hpwdt module is unable to process its generated NMI if the NMI watchdog is
active, because the current NMI latency mitigation results in the NMI
being claimed by the perf NMI handler.
Update the AMD perf NMI latency mitigation workaround to, instead, use a
window of time. Whenever a PMC is handled in the perf NMI handler, set a
timestamp which will act as a perf NMI window. Any NMIs arriving within
that window will be claimed by perf. Anything outside that window will
not be claimed by perf. The value for the NMI window is set to 100 msecs.
This is a conservative value that easily covers any NMI latency in the
hardware. While this still results in a window in which the hpwdt module
will not receive its NMI, the window is now much, much smaller.

commit 0e3b74e26280f2cf8753717a950b97d424da6046 upstream.
Add a new amd_hw_cache_event_ids_f17h assignment structure set
for AMD families 17h and above, since a lot has changed. Specifically:
L1 Data Cache
The data cache access counter remains the same on Family 17h.
For DC misses, PMCx041's definition changes with Family 17h,
so instead we use the L2 cache accesses from L1 data cache
misses counter (PMCx060,umask=0xc8).
For DC hardware prefetch events, Family 17h breaks compatibility
for PMCx067 "Data Prefetcher", so instead, we use PMCx05a "Hardware
Prefetch DC Fills."
L1 Instruction Cache
PMCs 0x80 and 0x81 (32-byte IC fetches and misses) are backward
compatible on Family 17h.
For prefetches, we remove the erroneous PMCx04B assignment which
counts how many software data cache prefetch load instructions were
dispatched.
LL - Last Level Cache
Removing PMCs 7D, 7E, and 7F assignments, as they do not exist
on Family 17h, where the last level cache is L3. L3 counters
can be accessed using the existing AMD Uncore driver.
Data TLB
On Intel machines, data TLB accesses ("dTLB-loads") are assigned
to counters that count load/store instructions retired. This
is inconsistent with instruction TLB accesses, where Intel
implementations report iTLB misses that hit in the STLB.
Ideally, dTLB-loads would count higher level dTLB misses that hit
in lower level TLBs, and dTLB-load-misses would report those
that also missed in those lower-level TLBs, therefore causing
a page table walk. That would be consistent with instruction
TLB operation, remove the redundancy between dTLB-loads and
L1-dcache-loads, and prevent perf from producing artificially
low percentage ratios, i.e. the "0.01%" below:
42,550,869 L1-dcache-loads
41,591,860 dTLB-loads
4,802 dTLB-load-misses # 0.01% of all dTLB cache hits
7,283,682 L1-dcache-stores
7,912,392 dTLB-stores
310 dTLB-store-misses
On AMD Families prior to 17h, the "Data Cache Accesses" counter is
used, which is slightly better than load/store instructions retired,
but still counts in terms of individual load/store operations
instead of TLB operations.
So, for AMD Families 17h and higher, this patch assigns "dTLB-loads"
to a counter for L1 dTLB misses that hit in the L2 dTLB, and
"dTLB-load-misses" to a counter for L1 DTLB misses that caused
L2 DTLB misses and therefore also caused page table walks. This
results in a much more accurate view of data TLB performance:
60,961,781 L1-dcache-loads
4,601 dTLB-loads
963 dTLB-load-misses # 20.93% of all dTLB cache hits
Note that for all AMD families, data loads and stores are combined
in a single accesses counter, so no 'L1-dcache-stores' are reported
separately, and stores are counted with loads in 'L1-dcache-loads'.
Also note that the "% of all dTLB cache hits" string is misleading
because (a) "dTLB cache": although TLBs can be considered caches for
page tables, in this context, it can be misinterpreted as data cache
hits because the figures are similar (at least on Intel), and (b) not
all those loads (technically accesses) technically "hit" at that
hardware level. "% of all dTLB accesses" would be more clear/accurate.
Instruction TLB
On Intel machines, 'iTLB-loads' measure iTLB misses that hit in the
STLB, and 'iTLB-load-misses' measure iTLB misses that also missed in
the STLB and completed a page table walk.
For AMD Family 17h and above, for 'iTLB-loads' we replace the
erroneous instruction cache fetches counter with PMCx084
"L1 ITLB Miss, L2 ITLB Hit".
For 'iTLB-load-misses' we still use PMCx085 "L1 ITLB Miss,
L2 ITLB Miss", but set a 0xff umask because without it the event
does not get counted.
Branch Predictor (BPU)
PMCs 0xc2 and 0xc3 continue to be valid across all AMD Families.
Node Level Events
Family 17h does not have a PMCx0e9 counter, and corresponding counters
have not been made available publicly, so for now, we mark them as
unsupported for Families 17h and above.

commit 3fe3331bb285700ab2253dbb07f8e478fcea2f1b upstream.
Family 17h differs from prior families by:
- Does not support an L2 cache miss event
- It has re-enumerated PMC counters for:
- L2 cache references
- front & back end stalled cycles
So we add a new amd_f17h_perfmon_event_map[] so that the generic
perf event names will resolve to the correct h/w events on
family 17h and above processors.

commit 3966c3feca3fd10b2935caa0b4a08c7dd59469e5 upstream.
Spurious interrupt support was added to perf in the following commit, almost
a decade ago:
63e6be6d98e1 ("perf, x86: Catch spurious interrupts after disabling counters")
The two previous patches (resolving the race condition when disabling a
PMC and NMI latency mitigation) allow for the removal of this older
spurious interrupt support.
Currently in x86_pmu_stop(), the bit for the PMC in the active_mask bitmap
is cleared before disabling the PMC, which sets up a race condition. This
race condition was mitigated by introducing the running bitmap. That race
condition can be eliminated by first disabling the PMC, waiting for PMC
reset on overflow and then clearing the bit for the PMC in the active_mask
bitmap. The NMI handler will not re-enable a disabled counter.
If x86_pmu_stop() is called from the perf NMI handler, the NMI latency
mitigation support will guard against any unhandled NMI messages.

commit 6d3edaae16c6c7d238360f2841212c2b26774d5e upstream.
On AMD processors, the detection of an overflowed PMC counter in the NMI
handler relies on the current value of the PMC. So, for example, to check
for overflow on a 48-bit counter, bit 47 is checked to see if it is 1 (not
overflowed) or 0 (overflowed).
When the perf NMI handler executes it does not know in advance which PMC
counters have overflowed. As such, the NMI handler will process all active
PMC counters that have overflowed. NMI latency in newer AMD processors can
result in multiple overflowed PMC counters being processed in one NMI and
then a subsequent NMI, that does not appear to be a back-to-back NMI, not
finding any PMC counters that have overflowed. This may appear to be an
unhandled NMI resulting in either a panic or a series of messages,
depending on how the kernel was configured.
To mitigate this issue, add an AMD handle_irq callback function,
amd_pmu_handle_irq(), that will invoke the common x86_pmu_handle_irq()
function and upon return perform some additional processing that will
indicate if the NMI has been handled or would have been handled had an
earlier NMI not handled the overflowed PMC. Using a per-CPU variable, a
minimum value of the number of active PMCs or 2 will be set whenever a
PMC is active. This is used to indicate the possible number of NMIs that
can still occur. The value of 2 is used for when an NMI does not arrive
at the LAPIC in time to be collapsed into an already pending NMI. Each
time the function is called without having handled an overflowed counter,
the per-CPU value is checked. If the value is non-zero, it is decremented
and the NMI indicates that it handled the NMI. If the value is zero, then
the NMI indicates that it did not handle the NMI.

commit 914123fa39042e651d79eaf86bbf63a1b938dddf upstream.
On AMD processors, the detection of an overflowed counter in the NMI
handler relies on the current value of the counter. So, for example, to
check for overflow on a 48 bit counter, bit 47 is checked to see if it
is 1 (not overflowed) or 0 (overflowed).
There is currently a race condition present when disabling and then
updating the PMC. Increased NMI latency in newer AMD processors makes this
race condition more pronounced. If the counter value has overflowed, it is
possible to update the PMC value before the NMI handler can run. The
updated PMC value is not an overflowed value, so when the perf NMI handler
does run, it will not find an overflowed counter. This may appear as an
unknown NMI resulting in either a panic or a series of messages, depending
on how the kernel is configured.
To eliminate this race condition, the PMC value must be checked after
disabling the counter. Add an AMD function, amd_pmu_disable_all(), that
will wait for the NMI handler to reset any active and overflowed counter
after calling x86_pmu_disable_all().

While the Intel PMU monitors the LLC when perf enables the
HW_CACHE_REFERENCES and HW_CACHE_MISSES events, these events monitor
L1 instruction cache fetches (0x0080) and instruction cache misses
(0x0081) on the AMD PMU.
This is extremely confusing when monitoring the same workload across
Intel and AMD machines, since parameters like,
$ perf stat -e cache-references,cache-misses
measure completely different things.
Instead, make the AMD PMU measure instruction/data cache and TLB fill
requests to the L2 and instruction/data cache and TLB misses in the L2
when HW_CACHE_REFERENCES and HW_CACHE_MISSES are enabled,
respectively. That way the events measure unified caches on both
platforms.
