[PATCH v2 0/1] coresight: fix issue with insufficient claim tags

by Mike Leach

All CoreSight compliant components have an implementation defined number of 0 to 8 claim tag bits in the claim tag registers. These are used to claim the CoreSight resources by system agents. ARM recommends implementions have 4 claim tag registers. The CoreSight drivers implement a 2 claim tag bit protocol to allow self hosted and external debug agents to manage access to the hardware. However, if there are less than 2 claim tags available the protocol incorrectly returns an error on device claim, as no checks are made. If insufficient claim tags are present in a component then the protocol must return success on claim / disclaim to allow components to be used normally. Changes read the CLAIMSET bits to establish the number of available tags, and adjust the claim returns accordingly. Cache the claimtag protocol availablity in the coresight_device to reduce reads for the main claim/disclaim api. changes since v1: 1) Added claim tag availability cache into coresight_device when using the main coresight_claim_device() / coresight_disclaim_device() API.

I had them but I removed them because it was in a sentence so it made it look like a side note. I think I'll change from words to symbols: The reload value for the counter is 2 ^ (interval - 1).

[PATCH v5 0/3] coresight-tnoc: Add support for Interconnect TNOC

by Yuanfang Zhang

This patch series adds support for the Qualcomm CoreSight Interconnect TNOC (Trace Network On Chip) block, which acts as a CoreSight graph link forwarding trace data from subsystems to the Aggregator TNOC. Unlike the Aggregator TNOC, this block does not support aggregation or ATID assignment.

Please refer acpi_dev_present() how to do that. I would like Suzuki's confirmation in case I introduce noise. Thanks, Leo

[PATCH v4 0/6] Refactoring finding CPU phandles in DT

by Alireza Sanaee

This series refactor the way CPU IDs are retrieved from the device tree. Usually, there is a for loop that goes over every single CPU that can be avoided. This also reduces the amount of NULL pointer checks in drivers. I have abstracted away that loop and introduced a new function (of_cpu_node_to_id) for this. This patchset is a subset of [1], where I removed content and patches relevant to hyper-threaded cores for DT. Based on the discussion, the code refactor is still useful, hence this patchset. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250512080715.82-1-alireza.sanaee@huawei.co Changes since v3: - Rebased to d69eb204c255c35abd9e8cb621484e8074c75eaa Changes since v2: - Addressed Jonathan Cameron's comments. - Added reviewed-by tags. - Added a new commit where I suggest simplfing the code in arch_topology.c to remove the use of cpu_node on failure path. - Improve documentation. - Caught a bug in patch 1. - Commit message fixed for patch 2. Changes since v1: - Rebased on top of the latest mainline. - Addressed Krzysztof Kozlowski's comments -- Hopefully :-) - Addressed Jonathan Cameron's comments.
