Yes, please. I was going to suggest that. May be we could do that as
a separate patch after fixing the problem here first (so that it
can be back ported).
This was initially a perf_handle only used for the perf mode, and
it didn't make sens to have a "perf" argument to "enable" which
could be used for both sysfs and perf. Now that the path
is a generic data structure, it makes sense to move everything
to accept the path.

Thanks. That much makes sense to me, and I'll put together a patch along
those lines.
But, further: with core coresight code assembling into the path all the
data that is necessary, is there any reason to be using void* in these
enable/disable functions?
Could we also change these functions to accept a coresight_path* and
actually get some compiler help at finding mistakes like the one we're
fixing here?

Why are we spilling bits here in the common code for sysfs ? More on
this, see below.

We now call the above function without the spinlock and the refcnt is
managed with and without the spinlock by the users. This is problematic,
with refcnt being a non-atomic type.
Please fix. I don't see why we can't set the mode in
tmc_enable_etr_sink_sysfs() with the locks held and
reset the mode if we failed enable it properly.

Hi,
I will be making the OpenCSD ITM support in the development branch
(itm-decoder-dev) part of the main upstream branch.
If anyone has any feedback on this support please let me know.

If the AUX buffer size is specified as 2 GiB or larger, the expression
"(buf)->nr_pages << PAGE_SHIFT" may exceed 0x8000_0000. Since
(buf)->nr_pages is a signed integer, the shift can overflow and produce
a negative value. As a result, PERF_IDX2OFF() fails to work correctly.
Fix this by casting (buf)->nr_pages to unsigned long before the shift,
which allows PERF_IDX2OFF() to handle large buffers properly.

This change can fix catu issue but will cause regression for ctcu

The suggestion looks good to me.

I am fine for adding the notifier block in csdev.
Suzuki, could you confirm if this is the right way to move forward?

This patch series adds support for the Qualcomm CoreSight Interconnect TNOC
(Trace Network On Chip) block, which acts as a CoreSight graph link forwarding
trace data from subsystems to the Aggregator TNOC. Unlike the Aggregator TNOC,
this block does not support aggregation or ATID assignment.

The commit mentioned "without disabling IRQs" gives the impression that
the deadlock is caused by IRQ-unsafe locking, which might mislead into
thinking why the issue cannot be fixed with IRQ-safe locking.
Regardless of whether IRQs are disabled, and regardless of the context
(interrupt, bottom-half, or normal thread), the conditions for the
deadlock are only about:
(a) The bus lock has been acquired;
(b) A panic is triggered to try to acquire the same lock.

I would fix it in one go.
I agree with you that "the whole panic ops stuff should be done directly
with the panic". The only difference between us is that I would keep the
`panic_ops` callback. To me, this encapsulates panic callbacks into
different modules, to make the code more general.
Could you check if the drafted patch below looks good to you? If so, I
will send out a formal patch.

Subject: [PATCH] coresight: Fix possible deadlock in coresight_panic_cb()
coresight_panic_cb() is called during a panic. It invokes
bus_for_each_dev(), which then calls bus_to_subsys() and takes the
'bus_kset->list_lock'. If a panic occurs after the lock has been
acquired, it can lead to a deadlock.
Instead of using a common panic notifier to iterate the bus, this commit
directly registers the TMC device's panic notifier. This avoids bus
iteration and effectively eliminates the race condition that could cause
the deadlock.
