[PATCH v4 0/2] perf: riscv: Preliminary Perf Event Support on RISC-V

From: Alan Kao
Date: Tue Apr 17 2018 - 22:12:22 EST


This implements the baseline PMU for RISC-V platforms.

To ease future PMU portings, a guide is also written, containing
perf concepts, arch porting practices and some hints.

Changes in v4:
- Fix several compilation errors. Sorry for that.
- Raise a warning in the write_counter body.

Changes in v3:
- Fix typos in the document.
- Change the initialization routine from statically assigning PMU to
device-tree-based methods, and set default to the PMU proposed in
this patch.

Changes in v2:
- Fix the bug reported by Alex, which was caused by not sufficient
initialization. Check https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/3/31/251 for the
discussion.
