[PATCH 12/23] perf cs-etm: Optimize copying last branches

by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

From: Leo Yan <leo.yan(a)linaro.org> If an instruction range packet can generate multiple instruction samples, these samples share the same last branches; it's not necessary to copy the same last branches repeatedly for these samples within the same packet. This patch moves out the last branches copying from function cs_etm__synth_instruction_sample(), and execute it prior to generating instruction samples.

[PATCH 11/23] perf cs-etm: Correct synthesizing instruction samples

by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

From: Leo Yan <leo.yan(a)linaro.org> When 'etm->instructions_sample_period' is less than 'tidq->period_instructions', the function cs_etm__sample() cannot handle this case properly with its logic. Let's see below flow as an example: - If we set itrace option '--itrace=i4', then function cs_etm__sample() has variables with initialized values: tidq->period_instructions = 0 etm->instructions_sample_period = 4 - When the first packet is coming: packet->instr_count = 10; the number of instructions executed in this packet is 10, thus update period_instructions as below: tidq->period_instructions = 0 + 10 = 10 instrs_over = 10 - 4 = 6 offset = 10 - 6 - 1 = 3 tidq->period_instructions = instrs_over = 6 - When the second packet is coming: packet->instr_count = 10; in the second pass, assume 10 instructions in the trace sample again: tidq->period_instructions = 6 + 10 = 16 instrs_over = 16 - 4 = 12 offset = 10 - 12 - 1 = -3 -> the negative value tidq->period_instructions = instrs_over = 12 So after handle these two packets, there have below issues: The first issue is that cs_etm__instr_addr() returns the address within the current trace sample of the instruction related to offset, so the offset is supposed to be always unsigned value. But in fact, function cs_etm__sample() might calculate a negative offset value (in handling the second packet, the offset is -3) and pass to cs_etm__instr_addr() with u64 type with a big positive integer. The second issue is it only synthesizes 2 samples for sample period = 4. In theory, every packet has 10 instructions so the two packets have total 20 instructions, 20 instructions should generate 5 samples (4 x 5 = 20). This is because cs_etm__sample() only calls once cs_etm__synth_instruction_sample() to generate instruction sample per range packet. This patch fixes the logic in function cs_etm__sample(); the basic idea for handling coming packet is: - To synthesize the first instruction sample, it combines the left instructions from the previous packet and the head of the new packet; then generate continuous samples with sample period; - At the tail of the new packet, if it has the rest instructions, these instructions will be left for the sequential sample.

[PATCH 10/23] perf cs-etm: Continuously record last branch

by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

From: Leo Yan <leo.yan(a)linaro.org> Every time synthesize instruction sample, the last branch recording will be reset. This is fine if the instruction period is big enough, for example if use the option '--itrace=i100000', the last branch array is reset for every sample with 100000 instructions per period; before generate the next instruction sample, there has the sufficient packets coming to fill the last branch array. On the other hand, if set a very small period, the packets will be significantly reduced between two continuous instruction samples, thus the last branch array is almost empty for new instruction sample by frequently resetting. To allow the last branches to work properly for any instruction periods, this patch avoids to reset the last branch for every instruction sample and only reset it when flush the trace data. The last branches will be reset only for two cases, one is for trace starting, another case is for discontinuous trace; other cases can keep recording last branches for continuous instruction samples.

[PATCH v5 0/6] Describe CoreSight topology using sysfs links

by Mike Leach

The connections between CoreSight sources, links and sinks is not obvious without documentation or access to the device tree / ACPI definitions for the platform. This patchset provides sysfs links to enable the user to follow the trace patch from source to sink. Components in the trace path are updated to have a connections sysfs group, which collates all the links for that component. The CTI components which exist aside from the main trace patch, also have an added connections directory showing connections to other CoreSight devices. This patchset applies on top of the recent CTI v10 patchset [1]. Adaptation of an original patchset [2] from Suzuki, reusing 2 patches unchanged with update to 3rd adapt to the new common code for trace path and CTI component links & add a default connections group. Tested on Juno r1, DB410c; kernel 5.6-rc3 [1] http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2020-February/714140.… [2] https://lists.linaro.org/pipermail/coresight/2019-May/002803.html Changes since v4: 1) Rebased for v10 CTI set[1]. 2) Code for adding in the CTI->[other CoreSight] links revised to ensure consistent create / release process. Warn on highly unlikely event that link cannot be made & remove any programmatic association between the components. Changes since v3: 1) Rebased onto 5.6-rc1 kernel with CTI set[1]. Changes since v2: 1) Fixed issues with signature ordering noted by Suzuki. 2) Alterations to main CTI set[1] to overcome issue noted by Matthieu. Changes since v1: 1) Code from original v4 CTI set moved here so that all connections related code in this set. 2) Connections directory mandatory for all CoreSight components and generated as part of the registration process.

[PATCH v10 00/15] CoreSight CTI Driver

by Mike Leach

CTIs are defined in the device tree and associated with other CoreSight devices. The core CoreSight code has been modified to enable the registration of the CTI devices on the same bus as the other CoreSight components, but as these are not actually trace generation / capture devices, they are not part of the Coresight path when generating trace. However, the definition of the standard CoreSight device has been extended to include a reference to an associated CTI device, and the enable / disable trace path operations will auto enable/disable any associated CTI devices at the same time. Programming is at present via sysfs - a full API is provided to utilise the hardware capabilities. As CTI devices are unprogrammed by default, the auto enable describe above will have no effect until explicit programming takes place. A set of device tree bindings specific to the CTI topology has been defined. The driver accesses these in a platform agnostic manner, so ACPI bindings can be added later, once they have been agreed and defined for the CTI device. Documentation has been updated to describe both the CTI hardware, its use and programming in sysfs, and the new dts bindings required. Tested on DB410 board and Juno board, against the Linux 5.6-rc3 tree. Changes since v9: 1) Removed 2 unneeded devm_kstrdup calls, fixed error check on another. 2) Fixed variable array declaration from [0] to []. Changes since v8: 1) Use devm_ allocation in cti_match_fixup_csdev() to match other allocations. 2) Minor comment update per request. Changes since v7: NB: No functional driver changes in this set. Full set released for consistency, completeness and ease of use. 1) Updates to device tree bindings .yaml following comments from Rob Herring. Adds #size-cells and #address-cells to properties and constrained as required. Validated using dt_binding_check. 2) Minor typo fixes to cti documentation file. Changes since v6: NB: No functional driver changes in this set. Full set released for consistency, completeness and ease of use. 1) Updates to .yaml following comments from Maxime Ripard. Correct child node descriptions, fix validation, and ensure reg entries required in child nodes as per DeviceTree specification. 2) Update to Juno bindings to implement reg entry specification requirements. Changes since v5: 1) Fixed up device tree .yaml file. Using extra compatible string for v8 architecture CTI connections. 2) Ensure association code respects coresight mutex when setting cross referenced pointers. Add in shutdown code. 3) Multiple minor code fixes & rationalisation. Changes since v4: Multiple changes following feedback from Mathieu, Leo and Suzuki. 1) Dropped RFC tag - wider distribution 2) CTI bindings definition now presented as a .yaml file - tested with with 'dt-doc-validate' from devicetree.org/dt-schema project and in kernel build tree with 'make dtbs_check' per kernel docs. 3) Sysfs links to other CoreSight devices moved out of this set into a following set that deals with all CoreSight devices & sysfs links. 4) Documentation in .rst format and new directory following patchset in [1]. Extended example provided in docs. 5) Rationalised devicetree of_ specifics to use generic fwnode functions where possible to enable easier addition of ACPI support later. 6) Other minor changes as requested in feedback from last patchset. Changes since v3: 1) After discussion on CS mailing list, each CTI connection has a triggers<N> sysfs directory with name and trigger signals listed for the connection. 2) Initial code for creating sysfs links between CoreSight components is introduced and implementation for CTI provided. This allows exploration of the CoreSight topology within the sysfs infrastructure. Patches for links between other CoreSight components to follow. 3) Power management - CPU hotplug and idle omitted from this set as ongoing developments may define required direction. Additional patch set to follow. 4) Multiple fixes applied as requested by reviewers esp. Matthieu, Suzuki and Leo. Changes since v2: Updates to allow for new features on coresight/next and feedback from Mathieu and Leo. 1) Rebase and restructuring to apply on top of ACPI support patch set, currently on coresight/next. of_coresight_cti has been renamed to coresight-cti-platform and device tree bindings added to this but accessed in a platform agnostic manner using fwnode for later ACPI support to be added. 2) Split the sysfs patch info a series of functional patches. 3) Revised the refcount and enabling support. 4) Adopted the generic naming protocol - CTIs are either cti_cpuN or cti_sysM 5) Various minor presentation /checkpatch issues highlighted in feedback. 6) revised CPU hotplug to cover missing cases needed by ETM. Changes since v1: 1) Significant restructuring of the source code. Adds cti-sysfs file and cti device tree file. Patches add per feature rather than per source file. 2) CPU type power event handling for hotplug moved to CoreSight core, with generic registration interface provided for all CPU bound CS devices to use. 3) CTI signal interconnection details in sysfs now generated dynamically from connection lists in driver. This to fix issue with multi-line sysfs output in previous version. 4) Full device tree bindings for DB410 and Juno provided (to the extent that CTI information is available). 5) AMBA driver update for UCI IDs are now upstream so no longer included in this set Mike Leach (15): coresight: cti: Initial CoreSight CTI Driver coresight: cti: Add sysfs coresight mgmt reg access coresight: cti: Add sysfs access to program function regs coresight: cti: Add sysfs trigger / channel programming API dt-bindings: arm: Adds CoreSight CTI hardware definitions coresight: cti: Add device tree support for v8 arch CTI coresight: cti: Add device tree support for custom CTI coresight: cti: Enable CTI associated with devices coresight: cti: Add connection information to sysfs dt-bindings: qcom: Add CTI options for qcom msm8916 dt-bindings: arm: Juno platform - add CTI entries to device tree dt-bindings: hisilicon: Add CTI bindings for hi-6220 docs: coresight: Update documentation for CoreSight to cover CTI docs: sysfs: coresight: Add sysfs ABI documentation for CTI Update MAINTAINERS to add reviewer for CoreSight .../testing/sysfs-bus-coresight-devices-cti | 221 ++++ .../bindings/arm/coresight-cti.yaml | 336 +++++ .../devicetree/bindings/arm/coresight.txt | 7 + .../trace/coresight/coresight-ect.rst | 211 +++ Documentation/trace/coresight/coresight.rst | 13 + MAINTAINERS | 3 + arch/arm64/boot/dts/arm/juno-base.dtsi | 162 ++- arch/arm64/boot/dts/arm/juno-cs-r1r2.dtsi | 37 +- arch/arm64/boot/dts/arm/juno-r1.dts | 25 + arch/arm64/boot/dts/arm/juno-r2.dts | 25 + arch/arm64/boot/dts/arm/juno.dts | 25 + .../boot/dts/hisilicon/hi6220-coresight.dtsi | 130 +- arch/arm64/boot/dts/qcom/msm8916.dtsi | 85 +- drivers/hwtracing/coresight/Kconfig | 21 + drivers/hwtracing/coresight/Makefile | 3 + .../coresight/coresight-cti-platform.c | 485 +++++++ .../hwtracing/coresight/coresight-cti-sysfs.c | 1175 +++++++++++++++++ drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-cti.c | 745 +++++++++++ drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-cti.h | 235 ++++ .../hwtracing/coresight/coresight-platform.c | 20 + drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-priv.h | 15 + drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight.c | 86 +- include/dt-bindings/arm/coresight-cti-dt.h | 37 + include/linux/coresight.h | 27 + 24 files changed, 4098 insertions(+), 31 deletions(-) create mode 100644 Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-coresight-devices-cti create mode 100644 Documentation/devicetree/bindings/arm/coresight-cti.yaml create mode 100644 Documentation/trace/coresight/coresight-ect.rst create mode 100644 drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-cti-platform.c create mode 100644 drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-cti-sysfs.c create mode 100644 drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-cti.c create mode 100644 drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-cti.h create mode 100644 include/dt-bindings/arm/coresight-cti-dt.h -- 2.17.1

[PATCH v4 0/6] Describe CoreSight topology using sysfs links.

by Mike Leach

The connections between CoreSight sources, links and sinks is not obvious without documentation or access to the device tree / ACPI definitions for the platform. This patchset provides sysfs links to enable the user to follow the trace patch from source to sink. Components in the trace path are updated to have a connections sysfs group, which collates all the links for that component. The CTI components which exist aside from the main trace patch, also have an added connections directory showing connections to other CoreSight devices. This patchset applies on top of the recent CTI v9 patchset [1]. Adaptation of an original patchset [2] from Suzuki, reusing 2 patches unchanged with update to 3rd adapt to the new common code for trace path and CTI component links & add a default connections group. Tested on Juno r1, DB410c; kernel 5.6-rc1 [1] http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2020-February/709923.… [2] https://lists.linaro.org/pipermail/coresight/2019-May/002803.html Changes since v3: 1) Rebased onto 5.6-rc1 kernel with CTI set[1]. Changes since v2: 1) Fixed issues with signature ordering noted by Suzuki. 2) Alterations to main CTI set[1] to overcome issue noted by Matthieu. Changes since v1: 1) Code from original v4 CTI set moved here so that all connections related code in this set. 2) Connections directory mandatory for all CoreSight components and generated as part of the registration process. Mike Leach (3): coresight: Add generic sysfs link creation functions. coresight: cti: Add in sysfs links to other coresight devices. coresight: docs: Add information about the topology representations.
