[PATCH V5 00/26] Coresight integration with perf

From: Mathieu Poirier
Date: Sun Nov 29 2015 - 21:15:21 EST


I'm sending another iteration of this patchset where a few
exceptions when doing per-CPU tracing are fixed. I have
reshuffled the perf related patches to the end in the hope of
making it easier for perf maintainers to review the work.

Patches 1 to 19 are strictly concerned with moving coresight
code around to prepare for the final 6 where integration with
perf is really happening. I kept all the patches together for
completeness but can easily split in two set if it can help
motivate perf people to take a look. If it is the case simply
let me know and I will oblige.

This patchset aims to integrate configuration and control of
the Coresight tracers with the perf sub-system.

The goal is to use PMUs to represent tracers and the auxiliary
buffer enhancement to collect processor traces. As such a lot
of work is done to move the current Coresight sysFS oriented
configuration and control commands to perf's AUX API.

For the time being the work concentrates on ETMv3 and ETB1.0
sink buffer. Work on ETMv4 and other type of sink buffers
will follow once a foundation has been established.

Best regards,
Mathieu

Changes since V4:
* Reworked the way event configuration information is kept, fixing
a few corner cases when doing per CPU tracing.
* Rebased on 4.4-rc1.
* Added 'Cc' to specific perf related patches in the hope of suscitating
interest from reviewers, i.e perf maintainers.

Changes since V3:
* Rebased to GKH's char-misc-next tree (e2d8680741ed).

Changes since V2:
* Rebased to v4.3.
* Used the -M option to "git format-patch".
* Decoupled tracers and path - both are now completely independent.
* Moved path enablement/release to Perf's add/del functions.
* Moved PM runtime operations to the coresight core rather than
individual drivers.
* Enhanced mutual exclusion scheme between perf and sysFS.
* Removed architecture specific define in perf cmd line tool.
* Got rid of unused fields in structure 'cs_buffers'.
* Enhanced changelog for patch 16/26.

Changes since V1:
* Fixed typos in typographical error in documentation.
* Moved to a multi session support scheme.
* Split static and dynamic tracer configuration.
* Fixed configuration for user and kernel space tracing.
* Using WARN_ON_ONCE() rather than WARN_ON().
* Implemented strategy to prevent tracers from being used simultaneously.
* Changed sink_ops::unset_buffer() to sink_ops::reset_buffer().
* Moves ETM's sysFS interface from driver core to dedicated file.
* Removed spinlock in "etm_cpu_id()".
* Aggregated PMU driver pieces in a single patch.
* Added user space changes and rebased everything to v4.3-rc5.
