s390/perf: fix compile error (undefined reference sie_exit)

2013-07-26T11:25:22Z

The perf_event code references sie_exit even if KVM is not available. So add proper ifdefs to fix this one: arch/s390/built-in.o: In function `sys_call_table_emu': (.rodata+0x2b98): undefined reference to `sie_exit' arch/s390/built-in.o: In function `sys_call_table_emu': (.rodata+0x2ba0): undefined reference to `sie_exit' make: *** [vmlinux] Error 1 Reported-by: Zhouping Liu Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky

KVM: s390,perf: Detect if perf samples belong to KVM host or guest

2013-06-17T15:10:23Z

This patch is based on an original patch of David Hildenbrand. The perf core implementation calls architecture specific code in order to ask for specific information for a particular sample: perf_instruction_pointer() When perf core code asks for the instruction pointer, architecture specific code must detect if a KVM guest was running when the sample was taken. A sample can be associated with a KVM guest when the PSW supervisor state bit is set and the PSW instruction pointer part contains the address of 'sie_exit'. A KVM guest's instruction pointer information is then retrieved via gpsw entry pointed to by the sie control-block. perf_misc_flags() perf code code calls this function in order to associate the kernel vs. user state infomation with a particular sample. Architecture specific code must also first detectif a KVM guest was running at the time the sample was taken.

[S390] perf: add support for s390x CPU counters

2012-03-23T10:13:25Z

Add a perf PMU to access the CPU-measurement counter facility CPUM CF. CPUM CF provides multiple counter sets for measuring generic, problem-state, and crypto activaties. Also an extended counter set for the IBM System z10 and IBM z196 mainframes is available. Counters from the basic and problem-state counter set are mapped to generic perf hardware events. Other counters are accessible through raw events. For a list of available counter sets and counters, see: - The Load-Program-Parameter and the CPU-Measurement Facilities (SA23-2260) - The CPU-Measurement Facility Extended Counters Definition for z10 and z196 (SA23-2261) Reviewed-by: Jan Glauber Signed-off-by: Hendrik Brueckner Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky
