Building the kernel with AutoFDO does not reduce the optimization level from the compiler. AutoFDO uses hardware sampling to gather information about the frequency of execution of different code paths within a binary. This information is then used to guide the compiler's optimization decisions, resulting in a more efficient binary. Experiments showed that the kernel can improve up to 10% in latency. The support requires a Clang compiler after LLVM 17. This submission is limited to x86 platforms that support PMU features like LBR on Intel machines and AMD Zen3 BRS. Support for SPE on ARM 1, and BRBE on ARM 1 is part of planned future work. Here is an example workflow for AutoFDO kernel: 1) Build the kernel on the host machine with LLVM enabled, for example, $ make menuconfig LLVM=3D1 Turn on AutoFDO build config: CONFIG_AUTOFDO_CLANG=3Dy With a configuration that has LLVM enabled, use the following command: scripts/config -e AUTOFDO_CLANG After getting the config, build with $ make LLVM=3D1 2) Install the kernel on the test machine. 3) Run the load tests. The '-c' option in perf specifies the sample event period. We suggest using a suitable prime number, like 500009, for this purpose. For Intel platforms: $ perf record -e BR_INST_RETIRED.NEAR_TAKEN:k -a -N -b -c \ -o -- For AMD platforms: The supported system are: Zen3 with BRS, or Zen4 with amd_lbr_v2 For Zen3: $ cat proc/cpuinfo | grep " brs" For Zen4: $ cat proc/cpuinfo | grep amd_lbr_v2 $ perf record --pfm-events RETIRED_TAKEN_BRANCH_INSTRUCTIONS:k -a \ -N -b -c -o -- 4) (Optional) Download the raw perf file to the host machine. 5) To generate an AutoFDO profile, two offline tools are available: create_llvm_prof and llvm_profgen. The create_llvm_prof tool is part of the AutoFDO project and can be found on GitHub (https://github.com/google/autofdo), version v0.30.1 or later. The llvm_profgen tool is included in the LLVM compiler itself. It's important to note that the version of llvm_profgen doesn't need to match the version of Clang. It needs to be the LLVM 19 release or later, or from the LLVM trunk. $ llvm-profgen --kernel --binary=3D --perfdata=3D= \ -o or $ create_llvm_prof --binary=3D --profile=3D \ --format=3Dextbinary --out=3D Note that multiple AutoFDO profile files can be merged into one via: $ llvm-profdata merge -o ... 6) Rebuild the kernel using the AutoFDO profile file with the same config as step 1, (Note CONFIG_AUTOFDO_CLANG needs to be enabled): $ make LLVM=3D1 CLANG_AUTOFDO_PROFILE=3D Co-developed-by: Han Shen Signed-off-by: Han Shen Signed-off-by: Rong Xu Suggested-by: Sriraman Tallam Suggested-by: Krzysztof Pszeniczny Suggested-by: Nick Desaulniers Suggested-by: Stephane Eranian Tested-by: Yonghong Song Tested-by: Yabin Cui Tested-by: Nathan Chancellor Reviewed-by: Kees Cook Tested-by: Peter Jung --- Documentation/dev-tools/autofdo.rst | 168 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Documentation/dev-tools/index.rst | 1 + MAINTAINERS | 7 ++ Makefile | 1 + arch/Kconfig | 20 ++++ arch/x86/Kconfig | 1 + scripts/Makefile.autofdo | 22 ++++ scripts/Makefile.lib | 10 ++ tools/objtool/check.c | 1 + 9 files changed, 231 insertions(+) create mode 100644 Documentation/dev-tools/autofdo.rst create mode 100644 scripts/Makefile.autofdo diff --git a/Documentation/dev-tools/autofdo.rst b/Documentation/dev-tools/= autofdo.rst new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000..1f0a451e9ccd3 --- /dev/null +++ b/Documentation/dev-tools/autofdo.rst @@ -0,0 +1,168 @@ +..

AutoFDO (Auto-Feedback-Directed Optimization) +is a type of profile-guided optimization (PGO) used to enhance the +performance of binary executables. It gathers information about the +frequency of execution of various code paths within a binary using +hardware sampling. This data is then used to guide the compiler's +optimization decisions, resulting in a more efficient binary. AutoFDO +is a powerful optimization technique, and data indicates that it can +significantly improve kernel performance. It's especially beneficial +for workloads affected by front-end stalls. + +For AutoFDO builds, unlike non-FDO builds, the user must supply a +profile. Acquiring an AutoFDO profile can be done in several ways. +AutoFDO profiles are created by converting hardware sampling using +the "perf" tool. It is crucial that the workload used to create these +perf files is representative; they must exhibit runtime +characteristics similar to the workloads that are intended to be +optimized. Failure to do so will result in the compiler optimizing +for the wrong objective. + +The AutoFDO profile often encapsulates the program's behavior. If the +performance-critical codes are architecture-independent, the profile +can be applied across platforms to achieve performance gains. For +instance, using the profile generated on Intel architecture to build +a kernel for AMD architecture can also yield performance improvements. + +There are two methods for acquiring a representative profile: +(1) Sample real workloads using a production environment. +(2) Generate the profile using a representative load test. +When enabling the AutoFDO build configuration without providing an +AutoFDO profile, the compiler only modifies the dwarf information in +the kernel without impacting runtime performance. It's advisable to +use a kernel binary built with the same AutoFDO configuration to +collect the perf profile. While it's possible to use a kernel built +with different options, it may result in inferior performance. + +One can collect profiles using AutoFDO build for the previous kernel. +AutoFDO employs relative line numbers to match the profiles, offering +some tolerance for source changes. This mode is commonly used in a +production environment for profile collection. + +In a profile collection based on a load test, the AutoFDO collection +process consists of the following steps: + +#. Initial build: The kernel is built with AutoFDO options + without a profile. + +#. Profiling: The above kernel is then run with a representative + workload to gather execution frequency data. This data is + collected using hardware sampling, via perf. AutoFDO is most + effective on platforms supporting advanced PMU features like + LBR on Intel machines. + +#. AutoFDO profile generation: Perf output file is converted to + the AutoFDO profile via offline tools. + +The support requires a Clang compiler LLVM 17 or later. + +Preparation +=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D + +Configure the kernel with:: + + CONFIG_AUTOFDO_CLANG=3Dy + +Customization +=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D + +The default CONFIG_AUTOFDO_CLANG setting covers kernel space objects for +AutoFDO builds.

Code in ignore_unreachable_insn() has some heuristics to suppress the warning, but it does not work when -ffunction-sections is enabled. Suppose function foo has both strong and weak definitions. Case 1: The strong definition has an annotated section name, like .init.text. Only the weak definition will be placed into .text.foo. But since the section has no symbols, there will be no "hole" in the section. Case 2: Both sections are without an annotated section name. Both will be placed into .text.foo section, but there will be only one symbol (the strong one). If the weak code is before the strong code, there is no "hole" as it fails to find the right-most symbol before the offset. The fix is to use the first node to compute the hole if hole.sym is empty. If there is no symbol in the section, the first node will be NULL, in which case, -1 is returned to skip the whole section.

However, using -function-sections can cause problems with the linker script. The comments included in include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h note these issues.: =E2=80=9CTEXT_MAIN here will match .text.fixup and .text.unlikely if dead code elimination is enabled, so these sections should be converted to use ".." first.=E2=80=9D It is unclear whether there is a straightforward method for converting a suffix to "..". This patch modifies the order of subsections within the text output section. Specifically, it changes current order: .text.hot, .text, .text_unlikely, .text.unknown, .text.asan to the new order: .text.asan, .text.unknown, .text_unlikely, .text.hot, .text Here is the rationale behind the new layout: The majority of the code resides in three sections: .text.hot, .text, and .text.unlikely, with .text.unknown containing a negligible amount. .text.asan is only generated in ASAN builds. The primary goal is to group code segments based on their execution frequency (hotness). First, we want to place .text.hot adjacent to .text. Since we cannot put .text.hot after .text (Due to constraints with -ffunction-sections, placing .text.hot after .text is problematic), we need to put .text.hot before .text. Then it comes to .text.unlikely, we cannot put it after .text (same -ffunction-sections issue) . Therefore, we position .text.unlikely before .text.hot. .text.unknown and .tex.asan follow the same logic. This revised ordering effectively reverses the original arrangement (for .text.unlikely, .text.unknown, and .tex.asan), maintaining a similar level of affinity between sections. It also places .text.hot section at the beginning of a page to better utilize the TLB entry. Note that the limitation arises because the linker script employs glob patterns instead of regular expressions for string matching. While there is a method to maintain the current order using complex patterns, this significantly complicates the pattern and increases the likelihood of errors. This patch also changes vmlinux.lds.S for the sparc64 architecture to accommodate specific symbol placement requirements.

With -ffunction-sections, the compiler places each function in its own section named .text.function_name instead of placing all functions in the .text section. In the AutoFDO build, this allows the linker to utilize profile information to reorganize functions for improved utilization of iCache and iTLB.

Machine function split (MFS) is a pass in the Clang compiler that splits a function into hot and cold parts. The linker groups all cold blocks across functions together. This decreases hot code fragmentation and improves iCache and iTLB utilization. MFS requires a profile so this is enabled only for the AutoFDO builds.

Like AutoFDO, Propeller uses hardware sampling to gather information about the frequency of execution of different code paths within a binary. This information is then used to guide the compiler's optimization decisions, resulting in a more efficient binary. The support requires a Clang compiler LLVM 19 or later, and the create_llvm_prof tool (https://github.com/google/autofdo/releases/tag/v0.30.1). This commit is limited to x86 platforms that support PMU features like LBR on Intel machines and AMD Zen3 BRS. Here is an example workflow for building an AutoFDO+Propeller optimized kernel: 1) Build the kernel on the host machine, with AutoFDO and Propeller build config CONFIG_AUTOFDO_CLANG=3Dy CONFIG_PROPELLER_CLANG=3Dy then $ make LLVM=3D1 CLANG_AUTOFDO_PROFILE=3D =E2=80=9C=E2=80=9D is the profile collected when doing a n= on-Propeller AutoFDO build. This step builds a kernel that has the same optimization level as AutoFDO, plus a metadata section that records basic block information. This kernel image runs as fast as an AutoFDO optimized kernel. 2) Install the kernel on test/production machines. 3) Run the load tests. The '-c' option in perf specifies the sample event period. We suggest using a suitable prime number, like 500009, for this purpose. For Intel platforms: $ perf record -e BR_INST_RETIRED.NEAR_TAKEN:k -a -N -b -c \ -o -- For AMD platforms: The supported system are: Zen3 with BRS, or Zen4 with amd_lbr_v2 # To see if Zen3 support LBR: $ cat proc/cpuinfo | grep " brs" # To see if Zen4 support LBR: $ cat proc/cpuinfo | grep amd_lbr_v2 # If the result is yes, then collect the profile using: $ perf record --pfm-events RETIRED_TAKEN_BRANCH_INSTRUCTIONS:k -a \ -N -b -c -o -- 4) (Optional) Download the raw perf file to the host machine. 5) Generate Propeller profile: $ create_llvm_prof --binary=3D --profile=3D \ --format=3Dpropeller --propeller_output_module_name \ --out=3D_cc_profile.txt \ --propeller_symorder=3D_ld_profile.txt =E2=80=9Ccreate_llvm_prof=E2=80=9D is the profile conversion tool, and a= prebuilt binary for linux can be found on https://github.com/google/autofdo/releases/tag/v0.30.1 (can also build from source). "" can be something like "/home/user/dir/any_string". This command generates a pair of Propeller profiles: "_cc_profile.txt" and "_ld_profile.txt". 6) Rebuild the kernel using the AutoFDO and Propeller profile files.

Unlike AutoFDO, this information +is then used right before linking phase to optimize (among others) +block layout within and across functions. + +A few important notes about adopting Propeller optimization: + +#. Although it can be used as a standalone optimization step, it is + strongly recommended to apply Propeller on top of AutoFDO, + AutoFDO+ThinLTO or Instrument FDO. The rest of this document + assumes this paradigm. + +#. Propeller uses another round of profiling on top of + AutoFDO/AutoFDO+ThinLTO/iFDO. The whole build process involves + "build-afdo - train-afdo - build-propeller - train-propeller - + build-optimized". + +#. Propeller requires LLVM 19 release or later for Clang/Clang++ + and the linker(ld.lld). + +#. In addition to LLVM toolchain, Propeller requires a profiling + conversion tool: https://github.com/google/autofdo with a release + after v0.30.1: https://github.com/google/autofdo/releases/tag/v0.30.1. + +The Propeller optimization process involves the following steps: + +#. Initial building: Build the AutoFDO or AutoFDO+ThinLTO binary as + you would normally do, but with a set of compile-time / link-time + flags, so that a special metadata section is created within the + kernel binary. The special section is only intend to be used by the + profiling tool, it is not part of the runtime image, nor does it + change kernel run time text sections. + +#. Profiling: The above kernel is then run with a representative + workload to gather execution frequency data. This data is collected + using hardware sampling, via perf. Propeller is most effective on + platforms supporting advanced PMU features like LBR on Intel + machines. This step is the same as profiling the kernel for AutoFDO + (the exact perf parameters can be different). + +#. Propeller profile generation: Perf output file is converted to a + pair of Propeller profiles via an offline tool. + +#. Optimized build: Build the AutoFDO or AutoFDO+ThinLTO optimized + binary as you would normally do, but with a compile-time / + link-time flag to pick up the Propeller compile time and link time + profiles. This build step uses 3 profiles - the AutoFDO profile, + the Propeller compile-time profile and the Propeller link-time + profile. + +#. Deployment: The optimized kernel binary is deployed and used + in production environments, providing improved performance + and reduced latency. + +Preparation +=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D + +Configure the kernel with:: + + CONFIG_AUTOFDO_CLANG=3Dy + CONFIG_PROPELLER_CLANG=3Dy + +Customization +=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D + +The default CONFIG_PROPELLER_CLANG setting covers kernel space objects +for Propeller builds.
