[PATCH v2 00/17] arm64: Self-hosted trace related errata workarounds

From: Suzuki K Poulose
Date: Tue Sep 21 2021 - 09:41:35 EST


This series adds CPU erratum work arounds related to the self-hosted
tracing. The list of affected errata handled in this series are :

* TRBE may overwrite trace in FILL mode
- Arm Neoverse-N2 #2139208
- Cortex-A710 #211985

* A TSB instruction may not flush the trace completely when executed
in trace prohibited region.

- Arm Neoverse-N2 #2067961
- Cortex-A710 #2054223

* TRBE may write to out-of-range address
- Arm Neoverse-N2 #2253138
- Cortex-A710 #2224489

The series applies on the self-hosted/trbe fixes posted here [0].
A tree containing both the series is available here [1]

Changes since v1:
https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210728135217.591173-1-suzuki.poulose@xxxxxxx
- Added a fix to the TRBE driver handling of sink_specific data
- Added more description and ASCII art for overwrite in FILL mode
work around
- Added another TRBE erratum to the list.
"TRBE may write to out-of-range address"
Patches from 12-17
- Added comment to list the expectations around TSB erratum workaround.
