Hey, thanks for the script. I stumbled upon it while searching for a way to see the utilization of the GPU's video decoder/encoder. This is the output with an RX6800(sienna cichlid) on Linux 5.15.5.

For some reason average_mm_activity is always at 0 even when mpv is using vaapi. Do you know if that might not be getting read correctly?

Thank you for testing!

For some reason average_mm_activity is always at 0 even when mpv is using vaapi. Do you know if that might not be getting read correctly?

Let's have a look:

average_mm_activity is set from "VcnActivityPercentage" for sienna cichlid

gpu_metrics->average_mm_activity =
		use_metrics_v2 ? metrics_v2->VcnActivityPercentage : metrics->VcnActivityPercentage;

https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/drivers/gpu/drm/amd/pm/swsmu/smu11/sienna_cichlid_ppt.c#L3614

initialized here, with the note that it is indeed a placeholder.

  uint16_t VcnActivityPercentage  ; //place holder, David N. to provide full sequence

https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/drivers/gpu/drm/amd/pm/inc/smu11_driver_if_sienna_cichlid.h#L1401

It is either UVD or VCN depending on GPU

smu11/vangogh_ppt.c:	gpu_metrics->average_mm_activity = metrics.UvdActivity;
smu11/vangogh_ppt.c:	gpu_metrics->average_mm_activity = metrics.Current.UvdActivity;
smu11/navi10_ppt.c:	gpu_metrics->average_mm_activity = metrics.VcnActivityPercentage;
smu11/navi10_ppt.c:	gpu_metrics->average_mm_activity = metrics.VcnActivityPercentage;
smu11/sienna_cichlid_ppt.c:	gpu_metrics->average_mm_activity = use_metrics_v2 ? metrics_v2->VcnActivityPercentage : metrics->VcnActivityPercentage;
smu11/arcturus_ppt.c:	gpu_metrics->average_mm_activity = metrics.VcnActivityPercentage;
smu13/yellow_carp_ppt.c:	gpu_metrics->average_mm_activity = metrics.UvdActivity;
smu13/aldebaran_ppt.c:	gpu_metrics->average_mm_activity = 0;
smu12/renoir_ppt.c:	gpu_metrics->average_mm_activity = metrics.AverageUvdActivity;

As far as i can tell, the actual reading from the hardware happens in the firmware blobs?

I know this is kind of old, but figured I'd drop some info here for the 7900 XTX / Navi 31 (XFX Merc 310 to be specific). I'm searching out answers to why the driver is claiming my card is being throttled (according to Mangohud, and seemingly this script).

From what I understand, the GPU is throttling due to code in the binary blobs, like maybe it's misreading the sensors on the card ? This is a problem b/c sometimes the card runs full speed and is great, but most of the time it's running at like 50% (clock speeds and power draw) while the CPU (5900X) is not stressed at all (no bottleneck that I can see), which is why I suspect a buggy throttling system. The fans on the card are very quit/slow, so it seems like if it really thought it was thermal throttling, that it would spin those faster ?

thanks for testing!

what kernel version?

check the active power profile in more recent kernels

cat /sys/class/drm/card?/device/pp_power_profile_mode

The profile can also be changed:
https://kernel.org/doc/html/latest/gpu/amdgpu/thermal.html#pp-power-profile-mode

and this GPU monitoring tool is pretty useful too

Hi, sorry, I should have provided that bit, kernel is 6.1.2-3-cachyos (the default kernel here uses the BORE scheduler iirc)

The power profile is 0-BOOTUP_DEFAULT, which appears to have the max values the card supports, and looks like:

❯ cat /sys/class/drm/card?/device/pp_power_profile_mode
PROFILE_INDEX(NAME) CLOCK_TYPE(NAME) FPS MinActiveFreqType MinActiveFreq BoosterFreqType BoosterFreq PD_Data_limit_c PD_Data_error_coeff PD_Data_error_rate_coeff
 0 BOOTUP_DEFAULT*:
                    0(       GFXCLK)       0       1       0       4     800 4587520  -65536       0
                    1(         FCLK)       0       3       0       1       0 3276800  -65536   -6553

I've come to the conclusion that the lack of "maximum GO" on the GPU was simply due to specific CPU cores being maxed out, so while stats may have shown "15% CPU load", it was really saying "most of your cores are idle but holy hell one is going to need a medic" . There are some bits of data that seem off, even from the other repo you linked (thanks for that by the way, very good tools!)
I'm still seeing the throttling messages bounce around, but it doesn't appear to actually be throttling the card when forcing it into a high GPU/low CPU load state, so probably just a red herring. Anywho, if there's any other info you want for S&Gs, lemme know. Thanks for the tool ^_^

Not sure if the missing SOCCLK is expected.
It's "good enough for now", so I'll probably just wait for some more driver updates to come down the pipe and see what shakes out.

try manually setting the power profile to 3D_FULL_SCREEN

as root

echo manual > /sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_dpm_force_performance_level
echo "1" > /sys/class/drm/card0/device/pp_power_profile_mode

performance difference might only show with a real benchmark...

Thanks, I used the only benchmark I have installed atm, ffxiv endwalker, and it seemed to bump the score by a little bit, tho it's mostly CPU bottlenecked. The main thing I noticed is the GPU stayed higher clocked and pulled max watts most of the time rather than dropping off as soon as possible. Still goes back to normal during idle / at desktop, so I'll set this as the default for awhile. Thanks !
I still see the ever-changing "throttle_status_flags", like PPT0, PPT1, PPT2, FPPT, TDC_CVIP, but I'm pretty sure those are red herrings and not really indicative of a real problem, or any actual throttling.

temperature_hbm, temperature_core, temperature_l3, average_core_power, current_coreclk, current_l3clk, padding are arrays.
Therefore, it looks like the data is misaligned.
