[PATCH v2 00/20] coresight: allow to build coresight as modules

by Tingwei Zhang

Allow to build coresight as modules. This gives developers the feasibility to test their code without reboot. This series is based on below two series. - "coresight: allow to build components as modules" https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/6/5/989 - "coresight: make drivers modular" https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/1/17/468 Change from v1: Use try_module_get() to avoid module to be unloaded when device is used in active trace session. (Mathieu P) Change from above two series. This series adds the support to dynamically remove module when the device in that module is enabled and used by some trace path. It disables all trace paths with that device and release the trace path.

Return stack

by Al Grant

Hi, While running perf on some function-heavy code I noticed the ETM return stack isn't enabled (TRCCONFIGR bit 9). I know that it can easily be enabled with retstack=1, but have we considered making this the default as we move to simplification of perf options? It could lead to more efficient profiles and shouldn't be any more difficult to decode than ETM normally is. Al

fedora package

by Jeremy Linton

Hi, As part of the effort to enable perf+coresight on fedora+RHEL, I am packaging up opencsd on fedora. This will make me the package maintainer there. As part of that work there were a couple minor tweaks to the install stanza in the makefile, as well as a couple gcc10 related warning cleanups I will forward here RSN too. If anyone is running fedora the early test packages are here: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/jlinton/opencsd/build/1519164/ or https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=46715425 and the in progress install tweak https://github.com/Linaro/OpenCSD/pull/26 Thanks,

Timestamp generator

by Mathieu Poirier

Good day to all, >From an architecture point of view is it fair to assume there can be only one timestamp generator per system or there can be more, something like one per CPU cluster? Either way, is the current practice expected to continue or there are plans to move to different design standards? Thanks, Mathieu

[RFC PATCH 0/3] CoreSight complex config support; ETM strobing.

by Mike Leach

This patchset introduces initial concepts in CoreSight complex configuration support - the device "feature", which is a method of programming the device to perform a specific function. A built-in feature is provided - the ETM strobing function, which programs the ETM to switch trace on and off in a specific mark / space ratio to effectively sample the program being traced. This feature is essential for the Auto-FDO flow using CoreSight trace. Features are declared as a data table, a set of register, resource and parameter requirements. A feature can then be loaded into a device, when the requirements are validated. Once loaded a feature can be enabled for a specific trace run. A feature appears in the sysfs file for the device, as a directory of form 'name.feat', with parameters 'enable', 'description' and any input parameters that may be used to control the operation. For example the ETM strobing feature provided has parameters of 'window' and 'period' to control the sampling mark / space ratio. The representation in sysfs for the ETMv4 is therefore:- etmX/strobing.feat/ /enable /window /period Future developments will introduce resource management, and allow for the runtime loading of additional features, and the setting of features across an entire CoreSight system.

[PATCH] coresight: etm4x: Fix save/restore during cpu idle

by Suzuki K Poulose

The ETM state save/restore incorrectly reads/writes some of the 64bit registers (e.g, address comparators, vmid/cid comparators etc.) using 32bit accesses. Ensure we use the appropriate width accessors for the registers.

some problem about using opencsd-perf

by H MJ

Dears, I am beginner of using opencsd-perf to study the coresight. My testing platform is Qcom smart phone (SDM845). I've successful build the opencsed lib and perf-opencsd (both are master branch) https://github.com/Linaro/OpenCSD https://github.com/Linaro/perf-opencsd I can find some devices name like these, ( when executing `ls /sys/bus/coresight/devices/`) ..., coresight-stm, coresight-tmc-etf, coresight-tmc-etr, coresight-ssc-etm0, ... However, when I using the commands, I got the error. 1. perfcsd record -e cs_etm/coresight-tmc-etf/ --per-thread ls ==> event syntax error: 'cs_etm/coresight-tmc-etf/' \___ unknown term 2. perfcsd record -e cs_etm/@coresight-tmc-etf/ --per-thread ls ==> event syntax error: 'cs_etm/coresight-tmc-etf/' \___ parser error I've tried any solutions as many as possible, but I still cannot solve this problem. Does perf-opencsd support the android? Can you help me? Thank you very much. Eric
