[PATCH 0/9] arm64: Add support for Armv9.4 PMU fixed instruction counter

From: Rob Herring (Arm)
Date: Fri Jun 07 2024 - 16:32:10 EST


This series adds support for the optional fixed instruction counter
added in Armv9.4 PMU. Most of the series is a refactoring to remove the
index to counter number conversion which dates back to the Armv7 PMU
driver. Removing it is necessary in order to support more than 32
counters without a bunch of conditional code further complicating the
conversion.

Patches 1-2 move the 32-bit Arm PMU drivers into drivers/perf/ and drop
non-DT probe support. These can be taken first if there's no comments on
them.

Patch 3 changes struct arm_pmu.num_events to a bitmap of events, and
updates all the users. This removes the index to counter conversion
on the PMUv3 and Armv7 drivers.

Patch 4 updates various register accessors to use 64-bit values matching
the register size.

Patches 5-6 update KVM PMU register accesses to use shared accessors
from asm/arm_pmuv3.h.

Patches 7-8 rework KVM and perf PMU defines for counter indexes and
number of counters.

Patch 9 finally adds support for the fixed instruction counter.

I tested this on FVP with VHE host and a guest. I tested the Armv7 PMU
changes with QEMU.
