From 89e97eb8cec0f1af5ebf2380308913256ca7915a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kan Liang Date: Wed, 25 Jan 2023 12:49:25 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] perf/x86/intel/ds: Fix the conversion from TSC to perf time The time order is incorrect when the TSC in a PEBS record is used. $perf record -e cycles:upp dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null count=10000 $ perf script --show-task-events perf-exec 0 0.000000: PERF_RECORD_COMM: perf-exec:915/915 dd 915 106.479872: PERF_RECORD_COMM exec: dd:915/915 dd 915 106.483270: PERF_RECORD_EXIT(915:915):(914:914) dd 915 106.512429: 1 cycles:upp: ffffffff96c011b7 [unknown] ([unknown]) ... ... The perf time is from sched_clock_cpu(). The current PEBS code unconditionally convert the TSC to native_sched_clock(). There is a shift between the two clocks. If the TSC is stable, the shift is consistent, __sched_clock_offset. If the TSC is unstable, the shift has to be calculated at runtime. This patch doesn't support the conversion when the TSC is unstable. The TSC unstable case is a corner case and very unlikely to happen. If it happens, the TSC in a PEBS record will be dropped and fall back to perf_event_clock().
