SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 + +=========================================================== +Amlogic SoC DDR Bandwidth Performance Monitoring Unit (PMU) +=========================================================== + +The Amlogic Meson G12 SoC contains a bandwidth monitor inside DRAM controller. +The monitor includes 4 channels. Each channel can count the request accessing +DRAM. The channel can count up to 3 AXI port simultaneously. It can be helpful +to show if the performance bottleneck is on DDR bandwidth. + +Currently, this driver supports the following 5 perf events: + ++ meson_ddr_bw/total_rw_bytes/ ++ meson_ddr_bw/chan_1_rw_bytes/ ++ meson_ddr_bw/chan_2_rw_bytes/ ++ meson_ddr_bw/chan_3_rw_bytes/ ++ meson_ddr_bw/chan_4_rw_bytes/ + +meson_ddr_bw/chan_{1,2,3,4}_rw_bytes/ events are channel-specific events. +Each channel support filtering, which can let the channel to monitor +individual IP module in SoC. + +Below are DDR access request event filter keywords: + ++ arm - from CPU ++ vpu_read1 - from OSD + VPP read ++ gpu - from 3D GPU ++ pcie - from PCIe controller ++ hdcp - from HDCP controller ++ hevc_front - from HEVC codec front end ++ usb3_0 - from USB3.0 controller ++ hevc_back - from HEVC codec back end ++ h265enc - from HEVC encoder ++ vpu_read2 - from DI read ++ vpu_write1 - from VDIN write ++ vpu_write2 - from di write ++ vdec - from legacy codec video decoder ++ hcodec - from H264 encoder ++ ge2d - from ge2d ++ spicc1 - from SPI controller 1 ++ usb0 - from USB2.0 controller 0 ++ dma - from system DMA controller 1 ++ arb0 - from arb0 ++ sd_emmc_b - from SD eMMC b controller ++ usb1 - from USB2.0 controller 1 ++ audio - from Audio module ++ sd_emmc_c - from SD eMMC c controller ++ spicc2 - from SPI controller 2 ++ ethernet - from Ethernet controller + + +Examples: + + + Show the total DDR bandwidth per seconds: + + .. code-block:: bash + + perf stat -a -e meson_ddr_bw/total_rw_bytes/ -I 1000 sleep 10 + + + + Show individual DDR bandwidth from CPU and GPU respectively, as well as + sum of them: + + .. code-block:: bash + + perf stat -a -e meson_ddr_bw/chan_1_rw_bytes,arm=1/ -I 1000 sleep 10 + perf stat -a -e meson_ddr_bw/chan_2_rw_bytes,gpu=1/ -I 1000 sleep 10 + perf stat -a -e meson_ddr_bw/chan_3_rw_bytes,arm=1,gpu=1/ -I 1000 sleep 10 + |
