Re: CoreSight components benchmarking/overhead evaluation

by Muhammad Abdul WAHAB

Hi Mathieu, Le 15/03/2017 à 18:00, Mathieu Poirier a écrit : > What do you mean by "bandwidth"? Please give us a little more details. I am using PTM component to trace a program on Linux. I recover the trace on FPGA using TPIU. I was wondering what types of program will generate so much trace that the PTM's internal FIFO will overflow and I won't be able to get the trace for my program. To evaluate this, I thought about benchmarking CoreSight with MiBench programs but I did not see any overflow (by having a look at decoded trace and having a look at I-Sync packet). > That won't be easy as it is HW dependent. Energy probes that tap > directly into the CPU cores would be best but again, the probe points > need to be present in HW. That's only one part of the equation - the > debug power domain also has to be measured. I don't have any measurement tools. I was thinking more about a simulator or something that would allow me to do it from Zynq SoC. I think I might be able to get more details on this one from Xilinx as I am using Xilinx Zynq SoC. > Again, you will have to give me a little more details on what you need to do. The idea is to find suitable metrics to evaluate debug components. Depending on the type of trace source and trace sink, there will be differences. My trace source will be PTM and I was thinking about first using ETB as trace sink to evaluate the maximum trace bandwidth. Then, do the same evaluation with TPIU. I was wondering what will be the suitable metrics to evaluate CS components efficiency. Is it enough to benchmark the CS Debug components with MiBench Benchmark and evaluate execution time overhead. > I hope this helps Of course, it helped. Thank you so much for your quick reply.

[PATCH 0/2] Support generation of last branch events with perf inject

by Sebastian Pop

The first patch is a minor typo to allow printing the trace info. The second patch enables translation of perf.data files into last branch events that are then processed by the autoFDO tool to extract a coverage file.

[PATCH] arm64: dts: juno: update definition for programmable replicator.

by Mike Leach

Juno platforms have a programmable replicator splitting the trace output to TPIU and ETR. Currently this is not being programmed as it is being treated as a none-programmable replicator - which is the default operational mode for these devices. The TPIU in the system is enabled by default, and this combination is causing back-pressure in the trace system resulting in overflows at the source. Replaces the existing definition with one that defines the programmable replicator, using the "qcom,coresight-replicator1x" driver that provides the correct functionality for CoreSight programmable replicators.

[PATCH] hwtracing: coresight: Fixes coresight DT parse to get correct output port ID.

by Mike Leach

Corrected to get the port numbering to allow programmable replicator driver to operate correctly. By convention, CoreSight devices number ports, not endpoints in the .dts files:- port { reg<N> endpoint { } } Existing code read endpoint number - always 0x0, rather than the correct port number.

Did you get the kernel from github as per my previous email? Kernel 4.4.23 is very old and doesn't have all of the CoreSight features required to integrate with perf. Also, keep in mind that since you are not working with Juno CPUIdle _needs_ to be disabled and you have to do make sure all power domains and clocks for the CoreSight IP blocks are managed properly. Out of curiosity, what platform is this?

That information, when configured on the cmd line, will end up in the perf.data file. From there it will be decoded and rendered by the openCSD library. Mike, can you comment on the format of the information that will be found in the packet? Perhaps you have an example somewhere of traces generated by the "cycacc" and "timestamp" option? You will definitely need to create your own scripts as nothing we have done so far uses those configuration parameters.

[PATCH v3 0/3] arm64: dts: juno: CoreSight support updates

by Sudeep Holla

Hi Mike, I just did some refactoring to reduced thge churn and duplication. Can you check if this work for you ? I could not give it much testing. Regards, Sudeep --->8 Juno r1/r2 boards have different CoreSight infrastructure outside the CPU clusters. This patchset adds the additional coreSight components to separate .dtsi files to support these differences. v1->v2: - moved the addition of the STM component into a separate patch v2->v3: - moved the back the common coreSight components back into juno-base.dtsi Mike Leach (2): arm64: dts: juno: fix CoreSight support for Juno r1/r2 variants arm64: dts: juno: add missing CoreSight STM component Sudeep Holla (1): arm64: dts: juno: refactor CoreSight support on Juno r0 arch/arm64/boot/dts/arm/juno-base.dtsi | 31 ++++++--- arch/arm64/boot/dts/arm/juno-cs-r1r2.dtsi | 102 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ arch/arm64/boot/dts/arm/juno-r1.dts | 13 ++++ arch/arm64/boot/dts/arm/juno-r2.dts | 13 ++++ arch/arm64/boot/dts/arm/juno.dts | 24 +++++++ 5 files changed, 175 insertions(+), 8 deletions(-) create mode 100644 arch/arm64/boot/dts/arm/juno-cs-r1r2.dtsi -- 2.7.4

[PATCH] makefile: Support to cross compile for arm/arm64

by Chunyan Zhang

In order to support cross compile the OpenCSD for arm/arm64, this patch added two environment variables, 'CROSS_COMPILE' and 'ARCH' which can be set by users before compiling the code. Like documented in Kernel Makefile, CROSS_COMPILE specifies the prefix used for all executables used during compilation. CROSS_COMPILE can be set on the command line, as is ARCH. For example, if you want to build the libraryies for Aarch64, you can set "ARCH=arm64", the the compiled libs will be located at lib/linux-arm64/<rel\dbg>.` Signed-off-by: Chunyan Zhang <zhang.chunyan(a)linaro.org> --- decoder/build/linux/makefile | 16 ++++++++++++---- 1 file changed, 12 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/decoder/build/linux/makefile b/decoder/build/linux/makefile index 3b6a623..dc1f32b 100644 --- a/decoder/build/linux/makefile +++ b/decoder/build/linux/makefile @@ -47,7 +47,11 @@ export LIB_CAPI_NAME # determine base architecture, heavily borrowed from the Linux kernel v4.4's # tools/perf/config/Makefile.arch +# For example, to compile for arm64 on a X86 PC, you can issue the command: +# "export ARCH=arm64" +ifndef ARCH ARCH := $(shell uname -m 2>/dev/null || echo not) +endif # source root directories export OCSD_LIB_ROOT=$(OCSD_ROOT)/lib @@ -58,10 +62,10 @@ export OCSD_SOURCE=$(OCSD_ROOT)/source export OCSD_TESTS=$(OCSD_ROOT)/tests # tools -export MASTER_CC=gcc -export MASTER_CPP=g++ -export MASTER_LINKER=g++ -export MASTER_LIB=ar +export MASTER_CC=$(CROSS_COMPILE)gcc +export MASTER_CPP=$(CROSS_COMPILE)g++ +export MASTER_LINKER=$(CROSS_COMPILE)g++ +export MASTER_LIB=$(CROSS_COMPILE)ar # compile flags MASTER_CC_FLAGS := -c -Wall -DLINUX @@ -87,6 +91,10 @@ ifeq ($(ARCH),x86) else ifeq ($(ARCH),x86_64) MFLAG:="-m64" BIT_VARIANT=64 +else ifeq ($(ARCH),arm) + BIT_VARIANT=-arm +else ifeq ($(ARCH),arm64) + BIT_VARIANT=-arm64 endif MASTER_CC_FLAGS += $(MFLAG) -- 2.7.4
