+		The perfmon2 debug and statistics interface
+                ------------------------------------------
+		           Stephane Eranian
+			  <eranian@gmail.com>
+
+The perfmon2 interfaces exports a set of statistics which are used to tune and
+debug the implementation. The data is composed of a set of very simple metrics
+mostly aggregated counts and durations. They instruments key points in the
+perfmon2 code, such as context switch and interrupt handling.
+
+The data is accessible via the debug filesystem (debugfs). Thus you need to
+have the filesystem support enabled in your kernel. Furthermore since, 2.6.25,
+the perfmon2 statistics interface is an optional component. It needs to be
+explicitely enabled in the kernel config file (CONFIG_PERFMON_DEBUG_FS).
+
+To access the data, the debugs filesystem must be mounted. Supposing the mount
+point is /debugfs, you would need to do:
+	$ mount -t debugs none /debugfs
+
+The data is located under the perfmon subdirectory and is organized per CPU.
+For each CPU, the same set of metrics is available, one metric per file in
+clear ASCII text.
+
+The metrics are as follows:
+
+	ctxswin_count (read-only):
+	
+		Number of PMU context switch in.
+
+	ctxswin_ns (read-only):
+
+		Number of nanoseconds spent in the PMU context switch in
+		routine.  Dividing this number by the value of ctxswin_count,
+		yields average cost of the PMU context switch in.
+
+	ctxswout_count (read-only):
+
+		Number of PMU context switch out.
+
+	ctxswout_ns (read-only):
+
+		Number of nanoseconds spent in the PMU context switch in
+		routine. Dividing this number by the value of ctxswout_count,
+		yields average cost of the PMU context switch out.
+
+	fmt_handler_calls (read-only):
+
+		Number of calls to the sampling format routine that handles
+		PMU interrupts, i.e., typically the routine that records a
+		sample.
+
+	fmt_handler_ns (read-only):
+
+		Number of nanoseconds spent in the routine that handle PMU
+		interrupt in the sampling format. Dividing this number by
+		the number of calls provided by fmt_handler_calls, yields
+		average time spent in this routine.
+
+	ovfl_intr_all_count (read-only):
+
+		Number of PMU interrupts received by the kernel.
+
+
+	ovfl_intr_nmi_count (read-only):
+
+		Number of Non Maskeable Interrupts (NMI) received by the kernel
+		for perfmon. This is relevant only on X86 hardware.
+	
+	ovfl_intr_ns (read-only):
+
+		Number of nanoseconds spent in the perfmon2 PMU interrupt
+		handler routine. Dividing this number of ovfl_intr_all_count
+		yields the average time to handle one PMU interrupt.
+
+	ovfl_intr_regular_count (read-only):
+
+		Number of PMU interrupts which are actually processed by 
+		the perfmon interrupt handler. There may be spurious or replay
+		interrupts.
+
+	ovfl_intr_replay_count (read-only):
+
+		Number of PMU interrupts which were replayed on context switch	
+		in or on event set switching. Interrupts get replayed when they
+		were in flight at the time monitoring had to be stopped.
+
+	perfmon/ovfl_intr_spurious_count (read-only):
+
+		Number of PMU interrupts which were dropped because there was
+		no active context (session).
+
+	ovfl_notify_count (read-only):
+
+		Number of user level notifications sent. Notifications are
+		appended as messages to the context queue. Notifications may
+		be sent on PMU interrupts.
+
+	pfm_restart_count (read-only):
+
+		Number of times pfm_restart() is called.
+

+
+	set_switch_count (read-only):
+
+		Number of event set switches.
+
+	set_switch_ns (read-only):
+
+		Number of nanoseconds spent in the set switching routine.
+		Dividing this number by set_switch_count yields the average
+		cost of switching sets.
+
+	handle_timeout_count (read-only):
+
+		Number of times the pfm_handle_timeout() routine is called.
+		It is used for timeout-based set switching.
+
+	handle_work_count (read-only):
+

+		handles asynchronous perfmon2 work for per-thread contexts
+		(sessions).

+              The perfmon2 hardware monitoring interface
+              ------------------------------------------
+		           Stephane Eranian
+			  <eranian@gmail.com>
+
+I/ Introduction
+
+   The perfmon2 interface provides access to the hardware performance counters of
+   major processors. Nowadays, all processors implement some flavors of performance
+   counters which capture micro-architectural level information such as the number
+   of elapsed cycles, number of cache misses, and so on.
+
+   The interface is implemented as a set of new system calls and a set of config files
+   in /sys.
+
+   It is possible to monitoring a single thread or a CPU. In either mode, applications
+   can count or collect samples. System-wide monitoring is supported by running a
+   monitoring session on each CPU. The interface support event-based sampling where the
+   sampling period is expressed as the number of occurrences of event, instead of just a
+   timeout.  This approach provides a much better granularity and flexibility.
+
+   For performance reason, it is possible to use a kernel-level sampling buffer to minimize
+   the overhead incurred by sampling. The format of the buffer, i.e., what is recorded, how
+   it is recorded, and how it is exported to user-land is controlled by a kernel module called
+   a custom sampling format. The current implementation comes with a default format but
+   it is possible to create additional formats. There is an in-kernel registration
+   interface for formats. Each format is identified by a simple string which a tool
+   can pass when a monitoring session is created.
+
+   The interface also provides support for event set and multiplexing to work around
+   hardware limitations in the number of available counters or in how events can be 
+   combined. Each set defines as many counters as the hardware can support. The kernel
+   then multiplexes the sets. The interface supports time-base switching but also
+   overflow based switching, i.e., after n overflows of designated counters.
+
+   Applications never manipulates the actual performance counter registers. Instead they see
+   a logical Performance Monitoring Unit (PMU) composed of a set of config register (PMC)
+   and a set of data registers (PMD). Note that PMD are not necessarily counters, they
+   can be buffers. The logical PMU is then mapped onto the actual PMU using a mapping
+   table which is implemented as a kernel module. The mapping is chosen once for each
+   new processor. It is visible in /sys/kernel/perfmon/pmu_desc. The kernel module
+   is automatically loaded on first use.
+
+   A monitoring session, or context, is uniquely identified by a file descriptor
+   obtained when the context is created. File sharing semantics apply to access
+   the context inside a process. A context is never inherited across fork. The file
+   descriptor can be used to received counter overflow notifications or when the
+   sampling buffer is full. It is possible to use poll/select on the descriptor 
+   to wait for notifications from multiplex contexts. Similarly, the descriptor
+   supports asynchronous notification via SIGIO.
+
+   Counters are always exported as being 64-bit wide regardless of what the underlying
+   hardware implements.
+
+II/ Kernel compilation
+
+    To enable perfmon2, you need to enable CONFIG_PERFMON
+
+III/ OProfile interactions
+
+    The set of features offered by perfmon2 is rich enough to support migrating
+    Oprofile on top of it. That means that PMU programming and low-level interrupt
+    handling could be done by perfmon2. The Oprofile sampling buffer management code
+    in the kernel as well as how samples are exported to users could remain through
+    the use of a custom sampling buffer format. This is how Oprofile work on Itanium.
+
+    The current interactions with Oprofile are:
+	- on X86: Both subsystems can be compiled into the same kernel. There is enforced
+	          mutual exclusion between the two subsystems. When there is an Oprofile
+		  session, no perfmon2 session can exist and vice-versa. Perfmon2 session
+		  encapsulates both per-thread and system-wide sessions here.
+
+	- On IA-64: Oprofile works on top of perfmon2. Oprofile being a system-wide monitoring
+		    tool, the regular per-thread vs. system-wide session restrictions apply.
+
+	- on PPC: no integration yet. You need to enable/disble one of the two subsystems
+	- on MIPS: no integration yet. You need to enable/disble one of the two subsystems
+
+IV/ User tools
+
+    We have released a simple monitoring tool to demonstrate the feature of the
+    interface. The tool is called pfmon and it comes with a simple helper library
+    called libpfm. The library comes with a set of examples to show how to use the
+    kernel perfmon2 interface. Visit http://perfmon2.sf.net for details.
+
+    There maybe other tools available for perfmon2.
+
+V/ How to program?
+
+   The best way to learn how to program perfmon2, is to take a look at the source
+   code for the examples in libpfm. The source code is available from:
+		http://perfmon2.sf.net
+
+VI/ System calls overview
+
+   The interface is implemented by the following system calls:
+
+   * int pfm_create_context(pfarg_ctx_t *ctx, char *fmt, void *arg, size_t arg_size)
+
+      This function create a perfmon2 context. The type of context is per-thread by
+      default unless PFM_FL_SYSTEM_WIDE is passed in ctx. The sampling format name
+      is passed in fmt. Arguments to the format are passed in arg which is of size
+      arg_size. Upon successful return, the file descriptor identifying the context
+      is returned.
+
+   * int pfm_write_pmds(int fd, pfarg_pmd_t *pmds, int n)
+   
+      This function is used to program the PMD registers. It is possible to pass
+      vectors of PMDs.
+
+   * int pfm_write_pmcs(int fd, pfarg_pmc_t *pmds, int n)
+   
+      This function is used to program the PMC registers. It is possible to pass
+      vectors of PMDs.
+
+   * int pfm_read_pmds(int fd, pfarg_pmd_t *pmds, int n)
+   
+      This function is used to read the PMD registers. It is possible to pass
+      vectors of PMDs.
+
+   * int pfm_load_context(int fd, pfarg_load_t *load)
+   
+      This function is used to attach the context to a thread or CPU.
+      Thread means kernel-visible thread (NPTL). The thread identification
+      as obtained by gettid must be passed to load->load_target.
+
+      To operate on another thread (not self), it is mandatory that the thread
+      be stopped via ptrace().
+
+      To attach to a CPU, the CPU number must be specified in load->load_target
+      AND the call must be issued on that CPU. To monitor a CPU, a thread MUST
+      be pinned on that CPU.
+
+      Until the context is attached, the actual counters are not accessed.
+
+   * int pfm_unload_context(int fd)
+
+     The context is detached for the thread or CPU is was attached to.
+     As a consequence monitoring is stopped.
+
+     When monitoring another thread, the thread MUST be stopped via ptrace()
+     for this function to succeed.
+
+   * int pfm_start(int fd, pfarg_start_t *st)
+
+     Start monitoring. The context must be attached for this function to succeed.
+     Optionally, it is possible to specify the event set on which to start using the
+     st argument, otherwise just pass NULL.
+
+     When monitoring another thread, the thread MUST be stopped via ptrace()
+     for this function to succeed.
+
+   * int pfm_stop(int fd)
+
+     Stop monitoring. The context must be attached for this function to succeed.
+
+     When monitoring another thread, the thread MUST be stopped via ptrace()
+     for this function to succeed.
+
+
+   * int pfm_create_evtsets(int fd, pfarg_setdesc_t *sets, int n)
+
+     This function is used to create or change event sets. By default set 0 exists.
+     It is possible to create/change multiple sets in one call.
+
+     The context must be detached for this call to succeed.
+
+     Sets are identified by a 16-bit integer. They are sorted based on this
+     set and switching occurs in a round-robin fashion.
+
+   * int pfm_delete_evtsets(int fd, pfarg_setdesc_t *sets, int n)
+   
+     Delete event sets. The context must be detached for this call to succeed.
+
+
+   * int pfm_getinfo_evtsets(int fd, pfarg_setinfo_t *sets, int n)
+
+     Retrieve information about event sets. In particular it is possible
+     to get the number of activation of a set. It is possible to retrieve
+     information about multiple sets in one call.
+
+
+   * int pfm_restart(int fd)
+
+     Indicate to the kernel that the application is done processing an overflow
+     notification. A consequence of this call could be that monitoring resumes.
+
+   * int read(fd, pfm_msg_t *msg, sizeof(pfm_msg_t))
+
+   the regular read() system call can be used with the context file descriptor to
+   receive overflow notification messages. Non-blocking read() is supported.
+
+   Each message carry information about the overflow such as which counter overflowed
+   and where the program was (interrupted instruction pointer).
+
+   * int close(int fd)
+
+   To destroy a context, the regular close() system call is used.

+ * This file implements the sampling format to support Intel
+ * Precise Event Based Sampling (PEBS) feature of Intel Core
+ * processors, such as Intel Core 2.
+ *
+ * What is PEBS?
+ * ------------
+ *  This is a hardware feature to enhance sampling by providing
+ *  better precision as to where a sample is taken. This avoids the
+ *  typical skew in the instruction one can observe with any
+ *  interrupt-based sampling technique.
+ *
+ *  PEBS also lowers sampling overhead significantly by having the
+ *  processor store samples instead of the OS. PMU interrupt are only
+ *  generated after multiple samples are written.
+ *
+ *  Another benefit of PEBS is that samples can be captured inside
+ *  critical sections where interrupts are masked.
+ *
+ * How does it work?
+ *  PEBS effectively implements a Hw buffer. The Os must pass a region
+ *  of memory where samples are to be stored. The region can have any
+ *  size. The OS must also specify the sampling period to reload. The PMU
+ *  will interrupt when it reaches the end of the buffer or a specified
+ *  threshold location inside the memory region.
+ *
+ *  The description of the buffer is stored in the Data Save Area (DS).
+ *  The samples are stored sequentially in the buffer. The format of the
+ *  buffer is fixed and specified in the PEBS documentation.  The sample
+ *  format does not change between 32-bit and 64-bit modes unlike on the
+ *  Pentium 4 version of PEBS.
+ *
+ *  PEBS does not work when HyperThreading is enabled due to certain MSR
+ *  being shared being to two threads.
+ *
+ *  What does the format do?
+ *   It provides access to the PEBS feature for both 32-bit and 64-bit
+ *   processors that support it.
+ *
+ *   The same code and data structures are used for both 32-bit and 64-bi
+ *   modes. A single format name is used for both modes. In 32-bit mode,
+ *   some of the extended registers are written to zero in each sample.
+ *
+ *   It is important to realize that the format provides a zero-copy
+ *   environment for the samples, i.e,, the OS never touches the
+ *   samples. Whatever the processor write is directly accessible to
+ *   the user.
+ *
+ *   Parameters to the buffer can be passed via pfm_create_context() in
+ *   the pfm_pebs_smpl_arg structure.

+ * This file implements the sampling format to support Intel
+ * Precise Event Based Sampling (PEBS) feature of Pentium 4
+ * and other Netburst-based processors. Not to be used for
+ * Intel Core-based processors.
+ *
+ * What is PEBS?
+ * ------------
+ *  This is a hardware feature to enhance sampling by providing
+ *  better precision as to where a sample is taken. This avoids the
+ *  typical skew in the instruction one can observe with any
+ *  interrupt-based sampling technique.
+ *
+ *  PEBS also lowers sampling overhead significantly by having the
+ *  processor store samples instead of the OS. PMU interrupt are only
+ *  generated after multiple samples are written.
+ *
+ *  Another benefit of PEBS is that samples can be captured inside
+ *  critical sections where interrupts are masked.
+ *
+ * How does it work?
+ *  PEBS effectively implements a Hw buffer. The Os must pass a region
+ *  of memory where samples are to be stored. The region can have any
+ *  size. The OS must also specify the sampling period to reload. The PMU
+ *  will interrupt when it reaches the end of the buffer or a specified
+ *  threshold location inside the memory region.
+ *
+ *  The description of the buffer is stored in the Data Save Area (DS).
+ *  The samples are stored sequentially in the buffer. The format of the
+ *  buffer is fixed and specified in the PEBS documentation.  The sample
+ *  format changes between 32-bit and 64-bit modes due to extended register
+ *  file.
+ *
+ *  PEBS does not work when HyperThreading is enabled due to certain MSR
+ *  being shared being to two threads.
+ *
+ *  What does the format do?
+ *   It provides access to the PEBS feature for both 32-bit and 64-bit
+ *   processors that support it.
+ *
+ *   The same code is used for both 32-bit and 64-bit modes, but different
+ *   format names are used because the two modes are not compatible due to
+ *   data model and register file differences. Similarly the public data
+ *   structures describing the samples are different.
+ *
+ *   It is important to realize that the format provides a zero-copy environment
+ *   for the samples, i.e,, the OS never touches the samples. Whatever the
+ *   processor write is directly accessible to the user.
+ *
+ *   Parameters to the buffer can be passed via pfm_create_context() in
+ *   the pfm_pebs_smpl_arg structure.
+ *
+ *   It is not possible to mix a 32-bit PEBS application on top of a 64-bit
+ *   host kernel.

+ * Context locking rules:
+ * ---------------------
+ * 	- any thread with access to the file descriptor of a context can
+ * 	  potentially issue perfmon calls
+ *
+ * 	- calls must be serialized to guarantee correctness
+ *
+ * 	- as soon as a context is attached to a thread or CPU, it may be
+ * 	  actively monitoring. On some architectures, such as IA-64, this
+ * 	  is true even though the pfm_start() call has not been made. This
+ * 	  comes from the fact that on some architectures, it is possible to
+ * 	  start/stop monitoring from userland.
+ *
+ *	- If monitoring is active, then there can PMU interrupts. Because
+ *	  context accesses must be serialized, the perfmon system calls
+ *	  must mask interrupts as soon as the context is attached.
+ *
+ *	- perfmon system calls that operate with the context unloaded cannot
+ *	  assume it is actually unloaded when they are called. They first need
+ *	  to check and for that they need interrupts masked. Then, if the
+ *	  context is actually unloaded, they can unmask interrupts.
+ *
+ *	- interrupt masking holds true for other internal perfmon functions as
+ *	  well. Except for PMU interrupt handler because those interrupts
+ *	  cannot be nested.
+ *
+ * 	- we mask ALL interrupts instead of just the PMU interrupt because we
+ * 	  also need to protect against timer interrupts which could trigger
+ * 	  a set switch.

+ * Then it was modified for perfmon-1.x by Stephane Eranian and
+ * David Mosberger, Hewlett Packard Co.
+ *
+ * Version Perfmon-2.x is a complete rewrite of perfmon-1.x
+ * by Stephane Eranian, Hewlett Packard Co.
