Introduce sysfs nodes to configure cross-trigger parameters for TPDA.
These registers define the characteristics of cross-trigger packets,
including generation frequency and flag values.

Could we clear all of the bits that are configurable in one go in the
beginning and set the appropriate ones based on the setting ? i.e.:

Do we really need to retain any values ? And if not, why not start
with a fresh set of values and avoid the read ?

These attribute are boolean and looks like we could save some space on
code by using dev_ext_attribute.
see tpdm_simple_dataset_rw()/tpdm_simple_dataset_ro() . You could

#define TPDA_TRIG_ASYNC        0
#define TPDA_TRIG_FLAG_TS     1
#define TPDA_TRIG_FREQ        2


tpda_trig_sysfs_show/store()

  bool *ptr;

Also this, global_flush_req seems to be a separate change from the rest of the additions in the patch. Why not split it into a separate patch
with appropriate description of what this is for ?

Hi Suzuki,

global_flush_req is part of the TPDA_CR register, it's the bit0 of the register.

I should document it in header file:
/* Cross trigger Global (all ports) flush request bit */
#define TPDA_CR_FLREQ BIT(0)

We also have below bit that is not in use:
#define TPDA_CR_FREQREQ BIT(1)

It's frequency request bit, that determines the frequency for generating frequency packets.

Thanks,
Jie
