There are two type of PMUs supported currently: 1) PMUs locate on SCCL (Super CPU Cluster [1]), associated with certain CCL (CPU cluster [1])(e.g. L3C PMU) or not (e.g. DDRC PMU) 2) PMUs locate on the SICL (Super IO Cluster [1]), which has no association with certain CPU topology (e.g. CPA PMU) Currently the associated CPUs of the PMU is detected in the cpuhp online callback as below: - for type 1) the CPUs match PMU's sccl_id and ccl_id - for type 2) PMU's sccl_id is -1 and all online CPUs will be associated Since uncore PMUs are not bound to certain CPU context and event could be counting started by any online CPU, the associated CPUs are just a preference. Below disadvantages are observed in current implementation: - the PMU cannot be used if its associated CPUs are offline - SICL PMUs are associated to all the online CPUs implicitly without the consideration of locality So refactor the way we detect the associated CPUs in below aspects: - add a clear definition of hisi_pmu::associated_cpus - initialize hisi_pmu::on_cpu based on locality if no associated CPU found, otherwise update it from associated CPUs - drop the detection with a sccl_id of -1 for SICL PMUs [1] https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/Documentation/admin-guide/perf/hisi-pmu.rst?h=v6.12-rc1 Signed-off-by: Yicong Yang <yangyicong@hisilicon.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20241210141525.37788-5-yangyicong@huawei.com Signed-off-by: Will Deacon <will@kernel.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
