PMU device driver perf_paiext supports Processor Activity Instrumentation Extension (PAIE1), available with IBM z16: - maps a 512 byte block to lowcore address 0x1508 called PAIE1 control block. - maps a 1024 byte block at PAIE1 control block entry with index 2. - uses control register bit 14 to enable PAIE1 control block lookup. - turn PAIE1 nnpa counting on and off by setting bit 63 in PAIE1 control block entry with index 2. - creates a sample with raw data on each context switch out when at context switch some mapped counters have a value of nonzero. This device driver only supports CPU wide context, no task context is allowed. Support for counting: - one or more counters can be specified using perf stat -e pai_ext/xxx/ where xxx stands for the counter event name. Multiple invocation of this command is possible. The counter names are listed in /sys/devices/pai_ext/events directory. - one special counters can be specified using perf stat -e pai_ext/NNPA_ALL/ which returns the sum of all incremented nnpa counters. - multiple counting events can run in parallel. Support for Sampling: - one event pai_ext/NNPA_ALL/ is reserved for sampling. The event collects data at context switch out and saves them in the ring buffer. - no multiple invocations are possible. The PAIE1 nnpa counter events are system wide. No task context is supported. Therefore some restrictions documented in function paiext_busy() apply. Extend qpaci assembly instruction to query supported memory mapped nnpa counters. It returns the number of counters (no holes allowed in that range). PAIE1 nnpa counter events can not be created when a CPU hot plug add is processed. This means a CPU hot plug add does not get the necessary PAIE1 event to record PAIE1 nnpa counter increments on the newly added CPU. CPU hot plug remove removes the event and terminates the counting of PAIE1 counters immediately.
