[[PATCH v6 02/10] perf: Add a flags parameter to pmu txn interfaces

From: Sukadev Bhattiprolu <hidden>
Date: 2015-09-04 03:09:50
Also in: linux-s390, lkml, sparclinux
Subsystem: linux for powerpc (32-bit and 64-bit), performance events subsystem, s390 architecture, sparc + ultrasparc (sparc/sparc64), the rest, x86 architecture (32-bit and 64-bit) · Maintainers: Madhavan Srinivasan, Peter Zijlstra, Ingo Molnar, Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo, Namhyung Kim, Heiko Carstens, Vasily Gorbik, Alexander Gordeev, "David S. Miller", Andreas Larsson, Linus Torvalds, Thomas Gleixner, Borislav Petkov, Dave Hansen

Currently, the PMU interface allows reading only one counter at a time.
But some PMUs like the 24x7 counters in Power, support reading several
counters at once. To leveage this functionality, extend the transaction
interface to support a "transaction type".

The first type, PERF_PMU_TXN_ADD, refers to the existing transactions,
i.e. used to _schedule_ all the events on the PMU as a group. A second
transaction type, PERF_PMU_TXN_READ, will be used in a follow-on patch,
by the 24x7 counters to read several counters at once.

Extend the transaction interfaces to the PMU to accept a 'txn_flags'
parameter and use this parameter to ignore any transactions that are
not of type PERF_PMU_TXN_ADD.

Thanks to Peter Zijlstra for his input.

Changelog[v6]
	- [Peter Zijlstra]
		- Change txn_flags to unsigned int.
		- In commit_txn() clear txn_flags independently for TXN_ADD
	          TXN_READ transactions (to reduce churn in a later patch).
		- Drop local 'txn_flags' variable.
		- Add WARN_ON_ONCE() around txn_flags.

Changelog[v4]
	- [Peter Zijlstra] Fix an copy-paste error in power_pmu_cancel_txn().
	- [Peter Zijlstra] Use __this_cpu_read() and __this_cpu_write().

Changelog[v3]
	- [Peter Zijlstra] Ensure the nop_txn interfaces disable/enable
	  PMU only for TXN_ADD transactions.
	- [Peter Zijlstra] Cache the flags parameter in ->start_txn() and
	  drop the flags parameter from ->commit_txn() and ->cancel_txn().
