      Anton Blanchard authored
      
      
      We are seeing a lot of PMU warnings on POWER8:
      
          Can't find PMC that caused IRQ
      
      Looking closer, the active PMC is 0 at this point and we took a PMU
      exception on the transition from negative to 0. Some versions of POWER8
      have an issue where they edge detect and not level detect PMC overflows.
      
      A number of places program the PMC with (0x80000000 - period_left),
      where period_left can be negative. We can either fix all of these or
      just ensure that period_left is always >= 1.
      
      This patch takes the second option.

      powerpc/perf: Clear MMCR2 when enabling PMU · b50a6c58
      Joel Stanley authored
      On POWER8 when switching to a KVM guest we set bits in MMCR2 to freeze
      the PMU counters. Aside from on boot they are then never reset,
      resulting in stuck perf counters for any user in the guest or host.
      
      We now set MMCR2 to 0 whenever enabling the PMU, which provides a sane
      state for perf to use the PMU counters under either the guest or the
      host.
      
      This was manifesting as a bug with ppc64_cpu --frequency:
      
          $ sudo ppc64_cpu --frequency
          WARNING: couldn't run on cpu 0
          WARNING: couldn't run on cpu 8
            ...
          WARNING: couldn't run on cpu 144
          WARNING: couldn't run on cpu 152
          min:    18446744073.710 GHz (cpu -1)
          max:    0.000 GHz (cpu -1)
          avg:    0.000 GHz
      
      The command uses a perf counter to measure CPU cycles over a fixed
      amount of time, in order to approximate the frequency of the machine.
      The counters were returning zero once a guest was started, regardless of
      weather it was still running or had been shut down.
      
      By dumping the value of MMCR2, it was observed that once a guest is
      running MMCR2 is set to 1s - which stops counters from running:
      
          $ sudo sh -c 'echo p > /proc/sysrq-trigger'
          CPU: 0 PMU registers, ppmu = POWER8 n_counters = 6
          PMC1:  5b635e38 PMC2: 00000000 PMC3: 00000000 PMC4: 00000000
          PMC5:  1bf5a646 PMC6: 5793d378 PMC7: deadbeef PMC8: deadbeef
          MMCR0: 0000000080000000 MMCR1: 000000001e000000 MMCRA: 0000040000000000
          MMCR2: fffffffffffffc00 EBBHR: 0000000000000000
          EBBRR: 0000000000000000 BESCR: 0000000000000000

      This is done unconditionally in book3s_hv_interrupts.S upon entering the
      guest, and the original value is only save/restored if the host has
      indicated it was using the PMU. This is okay, however the user of the
      PMU needs to ensure that it is in a defined state when it starts using
      it.

      powerpc/kvm: Remove redundant save of SIER AND MMCR2 · f73128f4
      Joel Stanley authored
      These two registers are already saved in the block above. Aside from
      being unnecessary, by the time we get down to the second save location
      r8 no longer contains MMCR2, so we are clobbering the saved value with
      PMC5.
      
      MMCR2 primarily consists of counter freeze bits. So restoring the value
      of PMC5 into MMCR2 will most likely have the effect of freezing
      counters.

      powerpc/powernv: Check for IRQHAPPENED before sleeping · c733cf83
      Preeti U Murthy authored
      Commit 8d6f7c5a
      
      : "powerpc/powernv: Make it possible to skip the IRQHAPPENED
      check in power7_nap()" added code that prevents cpus from checking for
      pending interrupts just before entering sleep state, which is wrong. These
      interrupts are delivered during the soft irq disabled state of the cpu.
      
      A cpu cannot enter any idle state with pending interrupts because they will
      never be serviced until the next time the cpu is woken up by some other
      interrupt. Its only then that the pending interrupts are replayed. This can result
      in device timeouts or warnings about this cpu being stuck.
      
      This patch fixes ths issue by ensuring that cpus check for pending interrupts
      just before entering any idle state as long as they are not in the path of split
      core operations.
