/*
|
|
* trace_hwlatdetect.c - A simple Hardware Latency detector.
|
|
*
|
|
* Use this tracer to detect large system latencies induced by the behavior of
|
|
* certain underlying system hardware or firmware, independent of Linux itself.
|
|
* The code was developed originally to detect the presence of SMIs on Intel
|
|
* and AMD systems, although there is no dependency upon x86 herein.
|
|
*
|
|
* The classical example usage of this tracer is in detecting the presence of
|
|
* SMIs or System Management Interrupts on Intel and AMD systems. An SMI is a
|
|
* somewhat special form of hardware interrupt spawned from earlier CPU debug
|
|
* modes in which the (BIOS/EFI/etc.) firmware arranges for the South Bridge
|
|
* LPC (or other device) to generate a special interrupt under certain
|
|
* circumstances, for example, upon expiration of a special SMI timer device,
|
|
* due to certain external thermal readings, on certain I/O address accesses,
|
|
* and other situations. An SMI hits a special CPU pin, triggers a special
|
|
* SMI mode (complete with special memory map), and the OS is unaware.
|
|
*
|
|
* Although certain hardware-inducing latencies are necessary (for example,
|
|
* a modern system often requires an SMI handler for correct thermal control
|
|
* and remote management) they can wreak havoc upon any OS-level performance
|
|
* guarantees toward low-latency, especially when the OS is not even made
|
|
* aware of the presence of these interrupts. For this reason, we need a
|
|
* somewhat brute force mechanism to detect these interrupts. In this case,
|
|
* we do it by hogging all of the CPU(s) for configurable timer intervals,
|
|
* sampling the built-in CPU timer, looking for discontiguous readings.
|
|
*
|
|
* WARNING: This implementation necessarily introduces latencies. Therefore,
|
|
* you should NEVER use this tracer while running in a production
|
|
* environment requiring any kind of low-latency performance
|
|
* guarantee(s).
