Balbir Singh 0428491cba powerpc/mm: Trace tlbie(l) instructions
Add a trace point for tlbie(l) (Translation Lookaside Buffer Invalidate
Entry (Local)) instructions.

The tlbie instruction has changed over the years, so not all versions
accept the same operands. Use the ISA v3 field operands because they are
the most verbose, we may change them in future.

Example output:

  qemu-system-ppc-5371  [016]  1412.369519: tlbie:
  	tlbie with lpid 0, local 1, rb=67bd8900174c11c1, rs=0, ric=0 prs=0 r=0

Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) 8cf868affd tracing: Have the reg function allow to fail
Some tracepoints have a registration function that gets enabled when the
tracepoint is enabled. There may be cases that the registraction function
must fail (for example, can't allocate enough memory). In this case, the
tracepoint should also fail to register, otherwise the user would not know
why the tracepoint is not working.

Denis Kirjanov 126df08c52 powerpc/pseries: Don't trace hcalls on offline CPUs
If a cpu is hotplugged while the hcall trace points are active, it's
possible to hit a warning from RCU due to the trace points calling into
RCU from an offline cpu, eg:

  RCU used illegally from offline CPU!
  rcu_scheduler_active = 1, debug_locks = 1

Make the hypervisor tracepoints conditional by using
TRACE_EVENT_FN_COND.

Aneesh Kumar K.V cfcb3d80a2 powerpc/mm: Add trace point for tracking hash pte fault
This enables us to understand how many hash fault we are taking
when running benchmarks.

For ex:
-bash-4.2# ./perf stat -e  powerpc:hash_fault -e page-faults /tmp/ebizzy.ppc64 -S 30  -P -n 1000
...

 Performance counter stats for '/tmp/ebizzy.ppc64 -S 30 -P -n 1000':

       1,10,04,075      powerpc:hash_fault
       1,10,03,429      page-faults

      30.865978991 seconds time elapsed

NOTE:
The impact of the tracepoint was not noticeable when running test. It was
within the run-time variance of the test. For ex:

Anton Blanchard c49f63530b powernv: Add OPAL tracepoints
Knowing how long we spend in firmware calls is an important part of
minimising OS jitter.

This patch adds tracepoints to each OPAL call. If tracepoints are
enabled we branch out to a common routine that calls an entry and exit
tracepoint.

This allows us to write tools that monitor the frequency and duration
of OPAL calls, eg:

name                  count  total(ms)  min(ms)  max(ms)  avg(ms)  period(ms)
OPAL_HANDLE_INTERRUPT     5      0.199    0.037    0.042    0.040   12547.545
OPAL_POLL_EVENTS        204      2.590    0.012    0.036    0.013    2264.899
OPAL_PCI_MSI_EOI       2830      3.066    0.001    0.005    0.001      81.166

We use jump labels if configured, which means we only add a single
nop instruction to every OPAL call when the tracepoints are disabled.

Anton Blanchard d136e27326 powerpc: tracing: Avoid tracepoint duplication with DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS
irq_entry, irq_exit, timer_interrupt_entry and timer_interrupt_exit
all do the same thing so use DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS to avoid duplicating
everything 4 times.

This saves quite a lot of space in both instruction text and data:

Anton Blanchard 6f26353ca2 powerpc: tracing: Give hypervisor call tracepoints access to arguments
While most users of the hcall tracepoints will only want the opcode
and return code, some will want all the arguments.  To avoid the
complexity of using varargs we pass a pointer to the register save
area, which contains all the arguments.

Anton Blanchard c8cd093a6e powerpc: tracing: Add hypervisor call tracepoints
Add hcall_entry and hcall_exit tracepoints.  This replaces the inline
assembly HCALL_STATS code and converts it to use the new tracepoints.

To keep the disabled case as quick as possible, we embed a status word
in the TOC so we can get at it with a single load.  By doing so we
keep the overhead at a minimum.  Time taken for a null hcall:

No tracepoint code:	135.79 cycles
Disabled tracepoints:	137.95 cycles

For reference, before this patch enabling HCALL_STATS resulted in a null
hcall of 201.44 cycles!

Anton Blanchard 6795b85c6a powerpc: tracing: Add powerpc tracepoints for timer entry and exit
We can monitor the effectiveness of our power management of both the
kernel and hypervisor by probing the timer interrupt. For example, on
this box we see 10.37s timer interrupts on an idle core:

<idle>-0     [010]  3900.671297: timer_interrupt_entry: pt_regs=c0000000ce1e7b10
<idle>-0     [010]  3900.671302: timer_interrupt_exit: pt_regs=c0000000ce1e7b10

<idle>-0     [010]  3911.042963: timer_interrupt_entry: pt_regs=c0000000ce1e7b10
<idle>-0     [010]  3911.042968: timer_interrupt_exit: pt_regs=c0000000ce1e7b10

<idle>-0     [010]  3921.414630: timer_interrupt_entry: pt_regs=c0000000ce1e7b10
<idle>-0     [010]  3921.414635: timer_interrupt_exit: pt_regs=c0000000ce1e7b10

Since we have a 207MHz decrementer it will go negative and fire every 10.37s
even if Linux is completely idle.

Anton Blanchard 1bf4af1650 powerpc: tracing: Add powerpc tracepoints for interrupt entry and exit
This adds powerpc-specific tracepoints for interrupt entry and exit.

While we already have generic irq_handler_entry and irq_handler_exit
tracepoints there are cases on our virtualised powerpc machines where an
interrupt is presented to the OS, but subsequently handled by the hypervisor.
This means no OS interrupt handler is invoked.

Here is an example on a POWER6 machine with the patch below applied:

<idle>-0     [006]  3243.949840744: irq_entry: pt_regs=c0000000ce31fb10
<idle>-0     [006]  3243.949850520: irq_exit: pt_regs=c0000000ce31fb10

<idle>-0     [007]  3243.950218208: irq_entry: pt_regs=c0000000ce323b10
<idle>-0     [007]  3243.950224080: irq_exit: pt_regs=c0000000ce323b10

<idle>-0     [000]  3244.021879320: irq_entry: pt_regs=c000000000a63aa0
<idle>-0     [000]  3244.021883616: irq_handler_entry: irq=87 handler=eth0
<idle>-0     [000]  3244.021887328: irq_handler_exit: irq=87 return=handled
<idle>-0     [000]  3244.021897408: irq_exit: pt_regs=c000000000a63aa0

Here we see two phantom interrupts (no handler was invoked), followed
by a real interrupt for eth0. Without the tracepoints in this patch we
would have missed the phantom interrupts.
