From 9b86b1b41e0f48b5b25918e07aeceb00e13d1ce2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Shaokun Zhang Date: Mon, 8 Mar 2021 14:50:37 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] docs: perf: Add new description on HiSilicon uncore PMU v2 Some news functions are added on HiSilicon uncore PMUs. Document them to provide guidance on how to use them.

Each CPU die +contains several Compute Clusters (CCLs). The I/O dies are called Super I/O +clusters (SICL) containing multiple I/O clusters (ICLs). Each CCL/ICL in the +SoC has a unique ID. Each ID is 11bits, include a 6-bit SCCL-ID and 5-bit +CCL/ICL-ID. For I/O die, the ICL-ID is followed by: +5'b00000: I/O_MGMT_ICL; +5'b00001: Network_ICL; +5'b00011: HAC_ICL; +5'b10000: PCIe_ICL; + +Users could configure IDs to count data come from specific CCL/ICL, by setting +srcid_cmd & srcid_msk, and data desitined for specific CCL/ICL by setting +tgtid_cmd & tgtid_msk. A set bit in srcid_msk/tgtid_msk means the PMU will not +check the bit when matching against the srcid_cmd/tgtid_cmd. + +If all of these options are disabled, it can works by the default value that +doesn't distinguish the filter condition and ID information and will return +the total counter values in the PMU counters. + The current driver does not support sampling. So "perf record" is unsupported. Also attach to a task is unsupported as the events are all uncore. -- 2.20.1
