Currently we display the cacheline list sorted on remote HITMs by default. The problem is that they might not be always counted and 'perf c2c report' displays an empty output. Thus it's more convenient to display and sort the cacheline list based on the total of HITMs and have the best change to see data in the default report run.

NAME

|
|
perf-c2c - Shared Data C2C/HITM Analyzer.
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
[verse]
|
|
'perf c2c record' [<options>] <command>
|
|
'perf c2c record' [<options>] -- [<record command options>] <command>
|
|
'perf c2c report' [<options>]
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
C2C stands for Cache To Cache.
|
|
|
|
The perf c2c tool provides means for Shared Data C2C/HITM analysis. It allows
|
|
you to track down the cacheline contentions.
|
|
|
|
The tool is based on x86's load latency and precise store facility events
|
|
provided by Intel CPUs. These events provide:
|
|
- memory address of the access
|
|
- type of the access (load and store details)
|
|
- latency (in cycles) of the load access
|
|
|
|
The c2c tool provide means to record this data and report back access details
|
|
for cachelines with highest contention - highest number of HITM accesses.
|
|
|
|
The basic workflow with this tool follows the standard record/report phase.
|
|
User uses the record command to record events data and report command to
|
|
display it.
|
|
|
|
|
|

C2C RECORD
|
|
----------
|
|
The perf c2c record command setup options related to HITM cacheline analysis
|
|
and calls standard perf record command.
|
|
|
|
Following perf record options are configured by default:
|
|
(check perf record man page for details)
|
|
|
|
-W,-d,--sample-cpu
|
|
|
|
Unless specified otherwise with '-e' option, following events are monitored by
|
|
default:
|
|
|
|
cpu/mem-loads,ldlat=30/P
|
|
cpu/mem-stores/P
|
|
|
|
User can pass any 'perf record' option behind '--' mark, like (to enable
|
|
callchains and system wide monitoring):
|
|
|
|
$ perf c2c record -- -g -a
|
|
|
|
Please check RECORD OPTIONS section for specific c2c record options.
|
|
|
|
C2C REPORT
|
|
----------
|
|
The perf c2c report command displays shared data analysis. It comes in two
|
|
display modes: stdio and tui (default).
|
|
|
|
The report command workflow is following:
|
|
- sort all the data based on the cacheline address
|
|
- store access details for each cacheline
|
|
- sort all cachelines based on user settings
|
|
- display data
|
|
|
|
In general perf report output consist of 2 basic views:
|
|
1) most expensive cachelines list
|
|
2) offsets details for each cacheline
|
|
|
|
For each cacheline in the 1) list we display following data:
|
|
(Both stdio and TUI modes follow the same fields output)
|
|
|
|
Index
|
|
- zero based index to identify the cacheline
|
|
|
|
Cacheline
|
|
- cacheline address (hex number)
|
|
|
|
Total records
|
|
- sum of all cachelines accesses
|
|
|
|
Rmt/Lcl Hitm
|
|
- cacheline percentage of all Remote/Local HITM accesses
|
|
|
|
LLC Load Hitm - Total, Lcl, Rmt
|
|
- count of Total/Local/Remote load HITMs
|
|
|
|
Store Reference - Total, L1Hit, L1Miss
|
|
Total - all store accesses
|
|
L1Hit - store accesses that hit L1
|
|
L1Hit - store accesses that missed L1
|
|
|
|
Load Dram
|
|

|
|
|
|
LLC Ld Miss
|
|

|
|
|
|
Total Loads
|
|
- sum of all load accesses
|
|
|
|
Core Load Hit - FB, L1, L2

|
|
|
|
LLC Load Hit - Llc, Rmt
|
|
- count of LLC and Remote load hits
|
|
|
|
For each offset in the 2) list we display following data:
|
|
|
|
HITM - Rmt, Lcl
|
|
- % of Remote/Local HITM accesses for given offset within cacheline
|
|
|
|
Store Refs - L1 Hit, L1 Miss
|
|
- % of store accesses that hit/missed L1 for given offset within cacheline

|
|
- sum of cycles for given accesses - Remote/Local HITM and generic load
|
|
|
|

NODE INFO
|
|
---------
|
|
The 'Node' field displays nodes that accesses given cacheline
|
|
offset. Its output comes in 3 flavors:
|
|
- node IDs separated by ','
|
|
- node IDs with stats for each ID, in following format:
|
|
Node{cpus %hitms %stores}
|
|
- node IDs with list of affected CPUs in following format:
|
|
Node{cpu list}
|
|
|
|
User can switch between above flavors with -N option or
|
|
use 'n' key to interactively switch in TUI mode.
|
|
|
|

Although Don Zickus, Dick Fowles and Joe Mario worked together
|
|
to get this implemented, we got lots of early help from Arnaldo
