x86 and arm64 can both support direct access of event counters in userspace. The access sequence is less than trivial and currently exists in perf test code (tools/perf/arch/x86/tests/rdpmc.c) with copies in projects such as PAPI and libpfm4. In order to support userspace access, an event must be mmapped first with perf_evsel__mmap(). Then subsequent calls to perf_evsel__read() will use the fast path (assuming the arch supports it). Committer notes: Added a '__maybe_unused' attribute to the read_perf_counter() argument to fix the build on arches other than x86_64 and arm. Committer testing: Building and running the libperf tests in verbose mode (V=1) now shows those "loop = N, count = N" extra lines, testing user space counter access. # make V=1 -C tools/lib/perf tests make: Entering directory '/home/acme/git/perf/tools/lib/perf' make -f /home/acme/git/perf/tools/build/Makefile.build dir=. obj=libperf make -C /home/acme/git/perf/tools/lib/api/ O= libapi.a make -f /home/acme/git/perf/tools/build/Makefile.build dir=./fd obj=libapi make -f /home/acme/git/perf/tools/build/Makefile.build dir=./fs obj=libapi make -C tests gcc -I/home/acme/git/perf/tools/lib/perf/include -I/home/acme/git/perf/tools/include -I/home/acme/git/perf/tools/lib -g -Wall -o test-cpumap-a test-cpumap.c ../libperf.a /home/acme/git/perf/tools/lib/api/libapi.a gcc -I/home/acme/git/perf/tools/lib/perf/include -I/home/acme/git/perf/tools/include -I/home/acme/git/perf/tools/lib -g -Wall -o test-threadmap-a test-threadmap.c ../libperf.a /home/acme/git/perf/tools/lib/api/libapi.a gcc -I/home/acme/git/perf/tools/lib/perf/include -I/home/acme/git/perf/tools/include -I/home/acme/git/perf/tools/lib -g -Wall -o test-evlist-a test-evlist.c ../libperf.a /home/acme/git/perf/tools/lib/api/libapi.a gcc -I/home/acme/git/perf/tools/lib/perf/include -I/home/acme/git/perf/tools/include -I/home/acme/git/perf/tools/lib -g -Wall -o test-evsel-a test-evsel.c ../libperf.a /home/acme/git/perf/tools/lib/api/libapi.a gcc -I/home/acme/git/perf/tools/lib/perf/include -I/home/acme/git/perf/tools/include -I/home/acme/git/perf/tools/lib -g -Wall -L.. -o test-cpumap-so test-cpumap.c /home/acme/git/perf/tools/lib/api/libapi.a -lperf gcc -I/home/acme/git/perf/tools/lib/perf/include -I/home/acme/git/perf/tools/include -I/home/acme/git/perf/tools/lib -g -Wall -L.. -o test-threadmap-so test-threadmap.c /home/acme/git/perf/tools/lib/api/libapi.a -lperf gcc -I/home/acme/git/perf/tools/lib/perf/include -I/home/acme/git/perf/tools/include -I/home/acme/git/perf/tools/lib -g -Wall -L.. -o test-evlist-so test-evlist.c /home/acme/git/perf/tools/lib/api/libapi.a -lperf gcc -I/home/acme/git/perf/tools/lib/perf/include -I/home/acme/git/perf/tools/include -I/home/acme/git/perf/tools/lib -g -Wall -L.. -o test-evsel-so test-evsel.c /home/acme/git/perf/tools/lib/api/libapi.a -lperf make -C tests run running static: - running test-cpumap.c...OK - running test-threadmap.c...OK - running test-evlist.c...OK - running test-evsel.c... loop = 65536, count = 333926 loop = 131072, count = 655781 loop = 262144, count = 1311141 loop = 524288, count = 2630126 loop = 1048576, count = 5256955 loop = 65536, count = 524594 loop = 131072, count = 1058916 loop = 262144, count = 2097458 loop = 524288, count = 4205429 loop = 1048576, count = 8406606 OK running dynamic: - running test-cpumap.c...OK - running test-threadmap.c...OK - running test-evlist.c...OK - running test-evsel.c... loop = 65536, count = 328102 loop = 131072, count = 655782 loop = 262144, count = 1317494 loop = 524288, count = 2627851 loop = 1048576, count = 5255187 loop = 65536, count = 524601 loop = 131072, count = 1048923 loop = 262144, count = 2107917 loop = 524288, count = 4194606 loop = 1048576, count = 8409322 OK make: Leaving directory '/home/acme/git/perf/tools/lib/perf' # Signed-off-by: Rob Herring <robh@kernel.org> Acked-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Acked-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Cc: Itaru Kitayama <itaru.kitayama@gmail.com> Cc: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Will Deacon <will@kernel.org> Link: http://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210414155412.3697605-4-robh@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> |

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 Restructured Text 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.
