Unless you have another user of perf_event_l2.h, please fold that into
perf_event_l2.c. Nothing is gained by having that separate.

If you do have another user of that, please describe that. Given the
values are HW constants I can't imagine what else would be using that.

As with prior postings, I think it makes sense to fold the accessors
from patch 1 in also. They can be factored out if and when a subsequent
patch series adds another user.

There are no printk uses in the file, so this can go.

Otherwise, it'd be worth using "qcom-l2", or better, drop the above and
use dev_printk and friends.

I realise that this is ground we've covered before, but I'm rather fuzzy
on the slice details, which makes this very difficult to review, and
will make it very difficult to come back to in future.

It would be helpful if you could expand the block comment above to
elaborate a little further on the HW design, and the concepts you are
trying to capture above.

Specifically:
- How do slices relate to CPUs? 1-1, M-N, or somewhere between?
- What are groups? What are columns? How do they relate to counters?

Please use DECLARE_BITMAP. Also, the "used_mask" name is ambiguous, so I
would recommend "used_counters", and likewise "used_groups" instead of
group_used_mask. e.g.

	DECLARE_BITMAP(used_counters, MAX_L2_CTRS);
	DECLARE_BITMAP(used_groups, L2_EVT_GROUP_MAX + 1);

Use the hw_perf_event field for this. See struct perf_event::hw and
struct hw_perf_event.

A mutex (which can sleep) is not safe for the hotplug state machine
stuff. See recent patches to the arm_pmu code.

That's further subsumed by the multi-instance stuff, so this (and the
list) will not be necessary shortly.

Typically, per-cpu variables are named after what the variable holds,
ignoring the fact that it's per-cpu. The naming here makes it sound like
each per-cpu instances holds a CPU -> PMU mapping, which is not the
case.

I would recommend:

static DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct hml2_pmu *, pmu_slice);

This can be:

static inline u32 idx_to_reg_bit(u32 idx)
{
	if (idx == l2_cycle_ctr_idx);
		return BIT(L2CYCLE_CTR_BIT);
	
	return BIT(idx);
}

Homebrew smp_call_function_any()? I think the above can be replaces
with:

	cpumask_t *mask = &slice->slice_cpus;

	if (!smp_call_function_any(mask, hml2_pmu__reset_on_slice, NULL))
		return;

Are these per-slice, or shared across slices?

I had assumed everything prefixed with hml2_pmu was per-slice, but the
GLOBAL naming, and the use below in l2_cache__pmu_{enable,disable}
implies that's not the case here.

You shouldn't need the u32 cast here.

Just to check, given you have separate SET and CLR registers, do you
actually need a RMW sequence here? Does wirintg a zero to a field in the
SET register actually clear it?

This is painful to read. Please use temporary variables for the two

What are these filters?

It took me a moment to figure out what was happening here.

l2_reset_mask is the mask of counters actually present, right?

Please rename it to something that doesn't imply it's specific to reset.

If a counter isn't implemented, is its bit zero, one, or unknown?

As covered above, use hwc->prev_count.

Use hwc->prev_count.

I don't follow this. Surely you need to update the prev_count in either
case? Otherwise subsequent updates are going to give you erroneous
numbers.

Can't the group already be taken by another event?

What about used_mask? Shouldn't this mirror l2_cache__get_event_idx?

Can't you use for_each_set_bit over the used_mask?

Then so long as we're careful with the mask manipulation we can remove
this check.

Please remove the last sentence, as we do not have an NMI.

Do we ever have any work to run? I thought that only happened in the

Defer this until after the type check. You don't know it's an
l2cache_pmu yet.

This could put an event on a different CPU to its group siblings, which

Why?

You can't reset or program the cycle counter value?

As I mentioned above, using a mutex here is not safe, as it can sleep,
and will be called in a context where that is not permitted.

Please split this up with some newlines.

Shouldn't that be a continue, so we check the other PMUs in the list?

Please try to split this up with newlines to make it more legible.
