[PATCH v7 1/7] dt-bindings: arm: coresight-tmc: Add "memory-region" property

From: Linu Cherian
Date: Wed Mar 06 2024 - 22:37:19 EST


memory-region 0: Reserved trace buffer memory

TMC ETR: When available, use this reserved memory region for
trace data capture. Same region is used for trace data
retention after a panic or watchdog reset.

TMC ETF: When available, use this reserved memory region for
trace data retention synced from internal SRAM after a panic or
watchdog reset.

memory-region 1: Reserved meta data memory

TMC ETR, ETF: When available, use this memory for register
snapshot retention synced from hardware registers after a panic
or watchdog reset.
