Frederic,
Here is what I have now in the x86 code. As for your comment on disabling the x86 event, we don't need to do this because it is not actually activated yet when we return from hw_perf_group_sched_in(). Activation occurs really in hw_perf_enable(). static int x86_event_sched_in(struct perf_event *event, struct perf_cpu_context *cpuctx, int cpu) { int ret = 0; event->state = PERF_EVENT_STATE_ACTIVE; event->oncpu = cpu; event->tstamp_running += event->ctx->time - event->tstamp_stopped; if (is_software_event(event)) ret = event->pmu->enable(event); if (!ret && !is_software_event(event)) cpuctx->active_oncpu++; if (!ret && event->attr.exclusive) cpuctx->exclusive = 1; return ret; } static void x86_event_sched_out(struct perf_event *event, struct perf_cpu_context *cpuctx, int cpu) { event->state = PERF_EVENT_STATE_INACTIVE; event->oncpu = -1; event->tstamp_running -= event->ctx->time - event->tstamp_stopped; if (is_software_event(event)) event->pmu->disable(event); if (!is_software_event(event)) cpuctx->active_oncpu--; if (event->attr.exclusive || !cpuctx->active_oncpu) cpuctx->exclusive = 0; } On Sun, Jan 17, 2010 at 3:12 PM, Frederic Weisbecker <fweis...@gmail.com> wrote: > On Wed, Jan 13, 2010 at 06:22:54PM +0100, Stephane Eranian wrote: >> Ok, >> >> Something like that should problably do it: >> >> static void event_sched_out(struct perf_event *event, int cpu) >> { >> event->state = PERF_EVENT_STATE_INACTIVE; >> event->oncpu = -1; >> } > > > > You need to also call pmu->disable() if it is a software event, > because a breakpoint needs to be unregistered in hardware level > too. > > And disable it in x86 level if it is an x86 event? > > > >> hw_perf_group_sched_in() >> { >> .... >> n = 1; >> list_for_each_entry(sub, &leader->sibling_list, group_entry) { >> if (sub->state > PERF_EVENT_STATE_OFF) { >> ret = event_sched_in(sub, cpu); >> if (ret) >> goto undo; > > > > Yeah we indeed really need to check that. > > Thanks. > > -- Stephane Eranian | EMEA Software Engineering Google France | 38 avenue de l'Opéra | 75002 Paris Tel : +33 (0) 1 42 68 53 00 This email may be confidential or privileged.
