[Mesa-dev] [PATCH 17/27] i965: Enumerate Observability Architecture counters on Gen5+.

Kenneth Graunke kenneth at whitecape.org
Wed Nov 13 17:52:22 PST 2013


In addition to listing the counter names, we include several "remap"
tables.  Confusingly, counters are documented with names like "A23",
are written to some buffer offset other than 23, and exposed by core
Mesa under a counter ID that is different still.

The first is inevitable; MI_REPORT_PERF_COUNT writes certain counters to
fixed locations in the buffer.  The latter could be avoided, but core
Mesa uses the "Counters" array index as the ID for a counter.  We could
do remapping there, but it would just complicate the core Mesa code.

  * Implementation of the GL_AMD_performance_monitor extension.
+ *
+ * On Gen5+ hardware, we have two sources of performance counter data:
+ * the Observability Architecture counters (MI_REPORT_PERF_COUNT), and
+ * the Pipeline Statistics Registers.  We expose both sets of raw data,
+ * as well as some useful processed values.
+ *
+ * The Observability Architecture (OA) counters for Gen6+ are documented
+ * in a separate document from the rest of the PRMs.  It is available at:
+ * https://01.org/linuxgraphics/documentation/driver-documentation-prms
+ * => 2013 Intel Core Processor Family => Observability Performance Counters
+ * (This one volume covers Sandybridge, Ivybridge, Baytrail, and Haswell.)
+ *
+ * On Ironlake, the OA counters were called "CHAPS" counters.  Sadly, no public
+ * documentation exists; our implementation is based on the source code for the
+ * intel_perf_counters utility (which is available as part of intel-gpu-tools).
