In the non-overflow context, e.g., context switch, with large PEBS, perf
may stop an event twice. An example is below.
//max_samples_per_tick is adjusted to 2
//NMI is triggered
intel_pmu_handle_irq()
handle_pmi_common()
drain_pebs()
__intel_pmu_pebs_event()
perf_event_overflow()
__perf_event_account_interrupt()
hwc->interrupts = 1
return 0
//A context switch happens right after the NMI.
//In the same tick, the perf_throttled_seq is not changed.
perf_event_task_sched_out()
perf_pmu_sched_task()
intel_pmu_drain_pebs_buffer()
__intel_pmu_pebs_event()
perf_event_overflow()
__perf_event_account_interrupt()
++hwc->interrupts >= max_samples_per_tick
return 1
x86_pmu_stop(); # First stop
perf_event_context_sched_out()
task_ctx_sched_out()
ctx_sched_out()
event_sched_out()
x86_pmu_del()
x86_pmu_stop(); # Second stop and trigger the warning
Perf should only invoke the perf_event_overflow() in the overflow
context.
Current drain_pebs() is called from:
- handle_pmi_common() -- overflow context
- intel_pmu_pebs_sched_task() -- non-overflow context
- intel_pmu_pebs_disable() -- non-overflow context
- intel_pmu_auto_reload_read() -- possible overflow context
With PERF_SAMPLE_READ + PERF_FORMAT_GROUP, the function may be
invoked in the NMI handler. But, before calling the function, the
PEBS buffer has already been drained. The __intel_pmu_pebs_event()
will not be called in the possible overflow context.
To fix the issue, an indicator is required to distinguish between the
overflow context aka handle_pmi_common() and other cases.
The dummy regs pointer can be used as the indicator.
In the non-overflow context, perf should treat the last record the same
as other PEBS records, and doesn't invoke the generic overflow handler.
