First patch of the patchset fix inconsistent results we are getting when
we run multiple 24x7 events.
Patchset adds json file metric support for the hv_24x7 socket/chip level
events. "hv_24x7" pmu interface events needs system dependent parameter
like socket/chip/core. For example, hv_24x7 chip level events needs
specific chip-id to which the data is requested should be added as part
of pmu events.
So to enable JSON file support to "hv_24x7" interface, patchset expose
total number of sockets and chips per-socket details in sysfs
files (sockets, chips) under "/sys/devices/hv_24x7/interface/".
To get sockets and number of chips per sockets, patchset adds a rtas call
with token "PROCESSOR_MODULE_INFO" to get these details. Patchset also
handles partition migration case to re-init these system depended
parameters by adding proper calls in post_mobility_fixup() (mobility.c).
Patch 6 & 8 of the patchset handles perf tool plumbing needed to replace
the "?" character in the metric expression to proper value and hv_24x7
json metric file for different Socket/chip resources.
Patch set also enable Hz/hz prinitg for --metric-only option to print
metric data for bus frequency.
Applied and tested all these patches cleanly on top of jiri's flex changes
patchset and made required changes.
Changelog:
v2 -> v3
- Remove setting event_count to 0 part in function 'h_24x7_event_read'
with comment rather then adding 0 to event_count value.
Suggested by: Sukadev Bhattiprolu
- Apply tool side changes require to replace "?" on Jiri's flex patch
series and made all require changes to make it compatible with added
flex change.
v1 -> v2
- Rename hv-24x7 metric json file as nest_metrics.json
