[PATCH v3 0/6] Arm CoreSight: Support AUX pause and resume

by Leo Yan

This series is to enable AUX pause and resume on Arm CoreSight. The first patch extracts the trace unit controlling operations to two functions. These two functions will be used by AUX pause and resume. Patches 02 and 03 change the ETMv4 driver to prepare callback functions for AUX pause and resume. Patch 04 changes the ETM perf layer to support AUX pause and resume in a perf session. The patches 05 updates buffer on AUX pause occasion, which can mitigate the trace data lose issue. Patch 07 documents the AUX pause usages with Arm CoreSight. This patch set has been verified on the Hikey960 board and TC platform. The previous one uses ETR and the later uses TRBE as sink. It is suggested to disable CPUIdle (add `nohlt` option in Linux command line) when verifying this series. ETM and funnel drivers are found issues during CPU suspend and resume which will be addressed separately. Changes from v2: - Rebased on CoreSight next branch. - Dropped the uAPI 'update_buf_on_pause' and updated document respectively (Suzuki). - Renamed ETM callbacks to .pause_perf() and .resume_perf() (Suzuki). - Minor improvement for error handling in the AUX resume flow. Changes from v1: - Added validation function pointers in pause and resume APIs (Mike).

Maybe some rules > have changed for dt-binding requirement. My conclusion is that if a device is an Arm Primecell peripheral, it should use the clock name "apb_pclk" (See the DT binding doc [1]). CTCU is not an Arm Primecell peripheral, so it does not need to strictly follow up the clock naming for Primecell peripheral. In Arm CoreSight framework, for code consistency, I would suggest using the clock naming "apb_pclk" for the APB clock for a newly added device that even it is not a Primecell peripheral. (We don't need to make any change to the CTCU driver, as we need to remain compatible with existed DTB blobs). Cc'ing Rob in case he has any suggestions.

Also you might as well use the new guard() thing to save someone find-and-replacing it later. But I'm wondering if this is accurate. The ETR's refcount is dependent on the pid of the owner of the trace session: /* Do not proceed if this device is associated with another session */ if (drvdata->pid != -1 && drvdata->pid != pid) { rc = -EBUSY; goto unlock_out; } /* * No HW configuration is needed if the sink is already in * use for this session. */ if (drvdata->pid == pid) { csdev->refcnt++; goto unlock_out; } If the helpers get enabled first, could this mean that CATU gets associated with a different session than the ETR? Maybe not, but it would be easier to understand if the core code handled the refcounting and locking for linked devices.

CoreSight configfs feature is integrated into the CoreSight core layer, and the other CoreSight modules are dependent on it. For example, if the ETM4x module is not removed, the kernel module management will natually prevent the CoreSight core module from being removed. > To address this, use cscfg_config_desc's active_cnt as a reference count > which will be holded when > - activate the config. > - enable the activated config. > and put the module reference when config_active_cnt == 0. > > Signed-off-by: Yeoreum Yun <yeoreum.yun(a)arm.com> > --- > Since v3: > - Remove enable arguments in cscfg_config_desc_get() (from Mike). > - https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250109171956.3535294-1-yeoreum.yun@arm.com/ > --- > .../hwtracing/coresight/coresight-config.h | 2 +- > .../coresight/coresight-etm4x-core.c | 3 ++ > .../hwtracing/coresight/coresight-syscfg.c | 52 +++++++++++++------ > 3 files changed, 41 insertions(+), 16 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-config.h b/drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-config.h > index b9ebc9fcfb7f..90fd937d3bd8 100644 > --- a/drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-config.h > +++ b/drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-config.h > @@ -228,7 +228,7 @@ struct cscfg_feature_csdev { > * @feats_csdev:references to the device features to enable. > */ > struct cscfg_config_csdev { > - const struct cscfg_config_desc *config_desc; > + struct cscfg_config_desc *config_desc; > struct coresight_device *csdev; > bool enabled; > struct list_head node; > diff --git a/drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-etm4x-core.c b/drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-etm4x-core.c > index e5972f16abff..ef96028fa56b 100644 > --- a/drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-etm4x-core.c > +++ b/drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-etm4x-core.c > @@ -1020,6 +1020,9 @@ static void etm4_disable_sysfs(struct coresight_device *csdev) > smp_call_function_single(drvdata->cpu, etm4_disable_hw, drvdata, 1); > > raw_spin_unlock(&drvdata->spinlock); > + > + cscfg_csdev_disable_active_config(csdev); > + In general, we need to split changes into several patches if each addresses a different issue.

Here the race condition is the 'config_csdev_list' list and configurations on the list. For atomicity, we should use lock to protect any operations on the list (read, add, delete, etc). A side topic, as here it adds locks for protecting 'config_csdev_list', I am wandering why we do not do the same thing for 'feature_csdev_list' (See cscfg_remove_owned_csdev_features() and cscfg_get_feat_csdev()). > list_for_each_entry_safe(config_csdev, tmp, &csdev->config_csdev_list, node) { > if (config_csdev->config_desc->load_owner == load_owner) > list_del(&config_csdev->node); > } > + raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore(&csdev->cscfg_csdev_lock, flags); > } > > static void cscfg_remove_owned_csdev_features(struct coresight_device *csdev, void *load_owner) > @@ -867,6 +870,25 @@ void cscfg_csdev_reset_feats(struct coresight_device *csdev) > } > EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(cscfg_csdev_reset_feats); > > +static bool cscfg_config_desc_get(struct cscfg_config_desc *config_desc) > +{ > + if (!atomic_fetch_inc(&config_desc->active_cnt)) { > + /* must ensure that config cannot be unloaded in use */ > + if (unlikely(cscfg_owner_get(config_desc->load_owner))) { > + atomic_dec(&config_desc->active_cnt); > + return false; > + } > + } > + > + return true; > +} > + > +static void cscfg_config_desc_put(struct cscfg_config_desc *config_desc) > +{ > + if (!atomic_dec_return(&config_desc->active_cnt)) > + cscfg_owner_put(config_desc->load_owner); > +} > + > /* > * This activate configuration for either perf or sysfs.

Why a config descriptor is get in multiple places? One time getting a config descriptor is in _cscfg_activate_config(), another is at here. To be honest, I am not clear what is the difference between 'activate' config and 'enable active' config. Literally, I think we only need to acquire the config at its creating phase (maybe match to activate config?). > config_csdev_active = config_csdev_item; > csdev->active_cscfg_ctxt = (void *)config_csdev_active; > break; > @@ -1097,7 +1113,11 @@ int cscfg_csdev_enable_active_config(struct coresight_device *csdev, > err = -EBUSY; > raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore(&csdev->cscfg_csdev_lock, flags); > } > + > + if (err) > + cscfg_config_desc_put(config_desc); > } > + > return err; > } > EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(cscfg_csdev_enable_active_config); > @@ -1136,8 +1156,10 @@ void cscfg_csdev_disable_active_config(struct coresight_device *csdev) > raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore(&csdev->cscfg_csdev_lock, flags); > > /* true if there was an enabled active config */ > - if (config_csdev) > + if (config_csdev) { > cscfg_csdev_disable_config(config_csdev); > + cscfg_config_desc_put(config_csdev->config_desc); > + } > } > EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(cscfg_csdev_disable_active_config); > > -- > LEVI:{C3F47F37-75D8-414A-A8BA-3980EC8A46D7} >

[PATCH v3 0/7] coresight: Clear self hosted claim tag on probe

by James Clark

I've gotten stuck a few times with unusable Coresight after a warm boot due to lingering claim tags, especially when testing the Coresight panic patchsets. This change does some tidy ups, adds some debug messages and clears the self hosted claim tag on probe. The last two commits are unrelated tidyups but they touch some of the same functions so to avoid extra conflicts I'm including them here. This gets as far as fixing the claim tag issue, but there is some other state not being cleared on probe that results in the following error. This can be fixed up as a later change: coresight tmc_etf0: timeout while waiting for TMC to be Ready coresight tmc_etf0: Failed to enable : TMC is not ready Changes in v3: - Collapse rename and locked/unlocked addition commits of coresight_clear_self_claim_tag() so we don't change the name twice. - Make coresight_clear_self_claim_tag() a bit more generic by only doing UNLOCK for MMIO devices (although there is no use of this right now) - Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250318-james-coresight-claim-tags-v2-0-e9c8a9cd… Changes in v2: * Revert most of the interface changes, just call coresight_clear_self_claim_tag() directly. This is possible because we're not doing the read first, so it has fewer knock on effects. * Split out the change to add struct cs_access to etm3x * Add another warning for racing with external debugger -- 2.34.1 --- James Clark (7): coresight: Convert tag clear function to take a struct cs_access coresight: Only check bottom two claim bits coresight: Add claim tag warnings and debug messages coresight: etm3x: Convert raw base pointer to struct coresight access coresight: Clear self hosted claim tag on probe coresight: Remove inlines from static function definitions coresight: Remove extern from function declarations drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-catu.c | 12 +-- drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-core.c | 87 ++++++++++++++-------- drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-cti-core.c | 2 + drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-etb10.c | 4 +- drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-etm.h | 6 +- drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-etm3x-core.c | 28 +++---- .../hwtracing/coresight/coresight-etm3x-sysfs.c | 8 +- drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-etm4x-core.c | 10 ++- .../hwtracing/coresight/coresight-etm4x-sysfs.c | 4 +- drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-funnel.c | 1 + drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-platform.c | 26 +++---- drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-priv.h | 20 ++--- drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-replicator.c | 3 +- drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-stm.c | 6 +- .../coresight/coresight-syscfg-configfs.c | 2 +- drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-tmc-core.c | 9 ++- drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-tmc-etr.c | 16 ++-- drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-trbe.c | 18 ++--- include/linux/coresight.h | 40 +++++----- 19 files changed, 168 insertions(+), 134 deletions(-) --- base-commit: 5442d22da7dbff3ba8c6720fc6f23ea4934d402d change-id: 20250317-james-coresight-claim-tags-ae1461f1f5e0 Best regards, -- James Clark <james.clark(a)linaro.org>
