2013-02-13tools/power turbostat: display SMI count by defaultLen Brown
The SMI counter is popular -- so display it by default rather than requiring an option. What the heck, we've blown the 80 column budget on many systems already... Note that the value displayed is the delta during the measurement interval. The absolute value of the counter can still be seen with the generic 32-bit MSR option, ie. -m 0x34 Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

2012-11-30tools: Allow tools to be installed in a user specified locationJosh Boyer
When building x86_energy_perf_policy or turbostat within the confines of a packaging system such as RPM, we need to be able to have it install to the buildroot and not the root filesystem of the build machine. This adds a DESTDIR variable that when set will act as a prefix for the install location of these tools. Signed-off-by: Josh Boyer <jwboyer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
2012-11-30tools/power: turbostat: make Makefile a bit more capableMark Asselstine
The turbostat Makefile is pretty simple, its output is placed in the same directory as the source, the install rule has no concept of a prefix or sysroot, and you can set CC to use a specific compiler but not use the more familiar CROSS_COMPILE. By making a few minor changes these limitations are removed while leaving the default behavior matching what it used to be. Example build with these changes: make CROSS_COMPILE=i686-wrs-linux-gnu- DESTDIR=/tmp install or from the tools directory make CROSS_COMPILE=i686-wrs-linux-gnu- DESTDIR=/tmp turbostat_install Signed-off-by: Mark Asselstine <mark.asselstine@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

2012-11-30tools/power turbostat: v3.0: monitor Watts and TemperatureLen Brown
Show power in Watts and temperature in Celsius when hardware support is present. Intel's Sandy Bridge and Ivy Bridge processor generations support RAPL (Run-Time-Average-Power-Limiting). Per the Intel SDM (Intel® 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software Developer Manual) RAPL provides hardware energy counters and power control MSRs (Model Specific Registers). RAPL MSRs are designed primarily as a method to implement power capping. However, they are useful for monitoring system power whether or not power capping is used. In addition, Turbostat now shows temperature from DTS (Digital Thermal Sensor) and PTM (Package Thermal Monitor) hardware, if present. As before, turbostat reads MSRs, and never writes MSRs. New columns are present in turbostat output: The Pkg_W column shows Watts for each package (socket) in the system. On multi-socket systems, the system summary on the 1st row shows the sum for all sockets together. The Cor_W column shows Watts due to processors cores. Note that Core_W is included in Pkg_W. The optional GFX_W column shows Watts due to the graphics "un-core". Note that GFX_W is included in Pkg_W. The optional RAM_W column on server processors shows Watts due to DRAM DIMMS. As DRAM DIMMs are outside the processor package, RAM_W is not included in Pkg_W. The optional PKG_% and RAM_% columns on server processors shows the % of time in the measurement interval that RAPL power limiting is in effect on the package and on DRAM. Note that the RAPL energy counters have some limitations. First, hardware updates the counters about once every milli-second. This is fine for typical turbostat measurement intervals > 1 sec. However, when turbostat is used to measure events that approach 1ms, the counters are less useful. Second, the 32-bit energy counters are subject to wrapping. For example, a counter incrementing 15 micro-Joule units on a 130 Watt TDP server processor could (in theory) roll over in about 9 minutes. Turbostat detects and handles up to 1 counter overflow per measurement interval. But when the measurement interval exceeds the guaranteed counter range, we can't detect if more than 1 overflow occured. So in this case turbostat indicates that the results are in question by replacing the fractional part of the Watts in the output with "**": Pkg_W Cor_W GFX_W 3** 0** 0** Third, the RAPL counters are energy (Joule) counters -- they sum up weighted events in the package to estimate energy consumed. They are not analong power (Watt) meters. In practice, they tend to under-count because they don't cover every possible use of energy in the package. The accuracy of the RAPL counters will vary between product generations, and between SKU's in the same product generation, and with temperature. turbostat's -v (verbose) option now displays more power and thermal configuration information -- as shown on the turbostat.8 manual page. For example, it now displays the Package and DRAM Thermal Design Power (TDP): cpu0: MSR_PKG_POWER_INFO: 0x2f064001980410 (130 W TDP, RAPL 51 - 200 W, 0.045898 sec.) cpu0: MSR_DRAM_POWER_INFO,: 0x28025800780118 (35 W TDP, RAPL 15 - 75 W, 0.039062 sec.) cpu8: MSR_PKG_POWER_INFO: 0x2f064001980410 (130 W TDP, RAPL 51 - 200 W, 0.045898 sec.) cpu8: MSR_DRAM_POWER_INFO,: 0x28025800780118 (35 W TDP, RAPL 15 - 75 W, 0.039062 sec.)

2012-11-27cpupower: Provide -c param for cpupower monitor to schedule process on all coresThomas Renninger
If an MSR based monitor is run in parallel this is not needed. This is the default case on all/most Intel machines. But when only sysfs info is read via cpupower monitor -m Idle_Stats (typically the case for non root users) or when other monitors are PCI based (AMD), Idle_Stats, read from sysfs can be totally bogus: cpupower monitor -m Idle_Stats PKG |CORE|CPU | POLL | C1-N | C3-N | C6-N 0| 0| 0| 0.00| 0.00| 0.24| 99.81 0| 0| 32| 0.00| 0.00| 0.00| 100.7 ... 0| 17| 20| 0.00| 0.00| 0.00| 173.1 0| 17| 52| 0.00| 0.00| 0.07| 173.0 0| 18| 68| 0.00| 0.00| 0.00| 0.00 0| 18| 76| 0.00| 0.00| 0.00| 0.00 ... With the -c option all cores are woken up and the kernel did update cpuidle statistics before reading out sysfs. This causes some overhead. Therefore avoid if possible, use if needed: cpupower monitor -c -m Idle_Stats PKG |CORE|CPU | POLL | C1-N | C3-N | C6-N 0| 0| 0| 0.00| 0.00| 0.00| 100.2 0| 0| 32| 0.00| 0.00| 0.00| 100.2 ... 0| 8| 8| 0.00| 0.00| 0.00| 99.82 0| 8| 40| 0.00| 0.00| 0.00| 99.81 0| 9| 24| 0.00| 0.00| 0.00| 100.3 0| 9| 56| 0.00| 0.00| 0.00| 100.2 0| 16| 4| 0.00| 0.00| 0.00| 99.75 0| 16| 36| 0.00| 0.00| 0.00| 99.38 ...

2012-11-27cpupower tools: Fix warning and a bug with the cpu package countPalmer Cox
The pkgs member of cpupower_topology is being used as the number of cpu packages. As the comment in get_cpu_topology notes, the package ids are not guaranteed to be contiguous. So, simply setting pkgs to the value of the highest physical_package_id doesn't actually provide a count of the number of cpu packages. Instead, calculate pkgs by setting it to the number of distinct physical_packge_id values which is pretty easy to do after the core_info structs are sorted. Calculating pkgs this way also has the nice benefit of getting rid of a sign comparison warning that GCC 4.6 was reporting.

2012-11-27cpupower tools: Fix malloc of cpu_info structurePalmer Cox
The cpu_info member of cpupower_topology was being declared as an unnamed structure. This member was then being malloced using the size of the parent cpupower_topology * the number of cpus. This works because cpu_info is smaller than cpupower_topology. However, there is no guarantee that will always be the case. Making cpu_info its own top level structure (named cpuid_core_info) allows for mallocing the actual size of this structure. This also lets us get rid of a redefinition of the structure in topology.c with slightly different field names.

Fix a variety of issues with sysfs_topology_read_file: * The return value of sysfs_topology_read_file function was not properly being checked for failure. * The function was reading int valued sysfs variables and then returning their value. So, even if a function was trying to check the return value of this function, a caller would not be able to tell an failure code apart from reading a negative value. This also conflicted with the comment on the function which said that a return value of 0 indicated success. * The function was parsing int valued sysfs values with strtoul instead of strtol. * The function was non-static even though it was only used in the file it was declared in.

But if turbostat can not migrate because it is restricted by a cpuset, then it will fail to migrate even after re-initialization, resulting in an infinite loop.

The correct syntax for gcc -x is "gcc -x assembler", not "gcc -xassembler". Even though the latter happens to work, the former is what is documented in the manual page and thus what gcc wrappers such as icecream do expect. This isn't a cosmetic change. The missing space prevents icecream from recognizing compilation tasks it can't handle, leading to silent kernel miscompilations. Besides me, credits go to Michael Matz and Dirk Mueller for investigating the miscompilation issue and tracking it down to this incorrect -x parameter syntax.

The "turbo-limit" is the maximum opportunistic processor speed, assuming no electrical or thermal constraints. For a given processor, the turbo-limit varies, depending on the number of active cores. Generally, there is more opportunity when fewer cores are active. Under the "-v" verbose option, turbostat would print the turbo-limits for the four cases of 1 to 4 cores active. Expand that capability to cover the cases of turbo opportunities with up to 16 cores active. Note that not all hardware platforms supply this information, and that sometimes a valid limit may be specified for a core which is not actually present.

Under some conditions, c1% was displayed as very large number, much higher than 100%. c1% is not measured, it is derived as "that, which is left over" from other counters. However, the other counters are not collected atomically, and so it is possible for c1% to be calaculagted as a small negative number -- displayed as very large positive. There was a check for mperf vs tsc for this already, but it needed to also include the other counters that are used to calculate c1. Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
2012-07-20tools/power: turbostat v2 - re-write for efficiencyLen Brown
Measuring large profoundly-idle configurations requires turbostat to be more lightweight. Otherwise, the operation of turbostat itself can interfere with the measurements. This re-write makes turbostat topology aware. Hardware is accessed in "topology order". Redundant hardware accesses are deleted. Redundant output is deleted. Also, output is buffered and local RDTSC use replaces remote MSR access for TSC. From a feature point of view, the output looks different since redundant figures are absent. Also, there are now -c and -p options -- to restrict output to the 1st thread in each core, and the 1st thread in each package, respectively. This is helpful to reduce output on big systems, where more detail than the "-s" system summary is desired. Finally, periodic mode output is now on stdout, not stderr. Turbostat v2 is also slightly more robust in handling run-time CPU online/offline events, as it now checks the actual map of on-line cpus rather than just the total number of on-line cpus.

2012-06-04tools/power turbostat: fix IVB supportLen Brown
Initial IVB support went into turbostat in Linux-3.1: 553575f1ae048aa44682b46b3c51929a0b3ad337 (tools turbostat: recognize and run properly on IVB) However, when running on IVB, turbostat would fail to report the new couters added with SNB, c7, pc2 and pc7. So in scenarios where these counters are non-zero on IVB, turbostat would report erroneous residencey results. In particular c7 time would be added to c1 time, since c1 time is calculated as "that which is left over". Also, turbostat reports MHz capabilities when passed the "-v" option, and it would incorrectly report 133MHz bclk instead of 100MHz bclk for IVB, which would inflate GHz reported with that option.

It's been broken forever (i.e. it's not scheduling in a power aware fashion), as reported by Suresh and others sending patches, and nobody cares enough to fix it properly ... so remove it to make space free for something better. There's various problems with the code as it stands today, first and foremost the user interface which is bound to topology levels and has multiple values per level. This results in a state explosion which the administrator or distro needs to master and almost nobody does. Furthermore large configuration state spaces aren't good, it means the thing doesn't just work right because it's either under so many impossibe to meet constraints, or even if there's an achievable state workloads have to be aware of it precisely and can never meet it for dynamic workloads. So pushing this kind of decision to user-space was a bad idea even with a single knob - it's exponentially worse with knobs on every node of the topology. There is a proposal to replace the user interface with a single 3 state knob: sched_balance_policy := { performance, power, auto } where 'auto' would be the preferred default which looks at things like Battery/AC mode and possible cpufreq state or whatever the hw exposes to show us power use expectations - but there's been no progress on it in the past many months. Aside from that, the actual implementation of the various knobs is known to be broken. There have been sporadic attempts at fixing things but these always stop short of reaching a mergable state. Therefore this wholesale removal with the hopes of spurring people who care to come forward once again and work on a coherent replacement.
