Hi,
I'm trying to profile a java application using hwpmc. While running the
profiler I run into these errors:
NMI ISA 30, EISA ff
NMI/cpu123 ... going to debugger
NMI ISA 30, EISA ff
NMI/cpu58 ... going to debugger
NMI ISA 20, EISA ff
NMI/cpu59 ... going to debugger
Due to this, pmclog contains very few samples and sometimes none at all. I
enabled hwpmc kernel traces and with that it seems that cpu which is unable
to catch the pmc interrupt hits true for this condition in
amd_intr(hwpmc_amd.c):
if ((pm = pac->pc_amdpmcs[i].phw_pmc) == NULL ||
!PMC_IS_SAMPLING_MODE(PMC_TO_MODE(pm))) {
isnull++;
continue;
}
if (!AMD_PMC_HAS_OVERFLOWED(i)) {
ovrflw++;
continue;
}
These are some logs

Other observations:
If I enable all the md=* flags, I do not see this issue. When i run the
profiler for a C++ application, I do not encounter this problem.
There is no panic observed.
Any idea on what could be causing this? or pointers on how to debug this
further?
Thanks
