Merge tag 'armsoc-drivers' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm/arm-soc
Pull ARM SoC driver updates from Arnd Bergmann:
"Driver updates for ARM SoCs, including a couple of newly added
drivers:
- The Qualcomm external bus interface 2 (EBI2), used in some of their
mobile phone chips for connecting flash memory, LCD displays or
other peripherals
- Secure monitor firmware for Amlogic SoCs, and an NVMEM driver for
the EFUSE based on that firmware interface.
- Perf support for the AppliedMicro X-Gene performance monitor unit
- Reset driver for STMicroelectronics STM32
- Reset driver for SocioNext UniPhier SoCs
Aside from these, there are minor updates to SoC-specific bus,
clocksource, firmware, pinctrl, reset, rtc and pmic drivers"

These PMU devices are loosely architected to follow the +same model as the PMU for ARM cores. The PMUs share the same top level +interrupt and status CSR region. + +PMU (perf) driver +----------------- + +The xgene-pmu driver registers several perf PMU drivers. Each of the perf +driver provides description of its available events and configuration options +in sysfs, see /sys/devices/<l3cX/iobX/mcbX/mcX>/. + +The "format" directory describes format of the config (event ID), +config1 (agent ID) fields of the perf_event_attr structure. The "events" +directory provides configuration templates for all supported event types that +can be used with perf tool. For example, "l3c0/bank-fifo-full/" is an +equivalent of "l3c0/config=0x0b/". + +Most of the SoC PMU has a specific list of agent ID used for monitoring +performance of a specific datapath. For example, agents of a L3 cache can be +a specific CPU or an I/O bridge. Each PMU has a set of 2 registers capable of +masking the agents from which the request come from. If the bit with +the bit number corresponding to the agent is set, the event is counted only if +it is caused by a request from that agent. Each agent ID bit is inversely mapped +to a corresponding bit in "config1" field. By default, the event will be +counted for all agent requests (config1 = 0x0). For all the supported agents of +each PMU, please refer to APM X-Gene User Manual. + +Each perf driver also provides a "cpumask" sysfs attribute, which contains a +single CPU ID of the processor which will be used to handle all the PMU events. + +Example for perf tool use: + + / # perf list | grep -e l3c -e iob -e mcb -e mc + l3c0/ackq-full/ [Kernel PMU event] + <...> + mcb1/mcb-csw-stall/ [Kernel PMU event] + + / # perf stat -a -e l3c0/read-miss/,mcb1/csw-write-request/ sleep 1 + + / # perf stat -a -e l3c0/read-miss,config1=0xfffffffffffffffe/ sleep 1 + +The driver does not support sampling, therefore "perf record" will +not work. Per-task (without "-a") perf sessions are not supported. |
