[PATCH] coresight: replicator: Fix panic for clearing claim tag

[PATCH v2 0/9] coresight: Fix and improve clock usage

by Leo Yan

This series fixes and improves clock usage in the Arm CoreSight drivers. Based on the DT binding documents, the trace clock (atclk) is defined in some CoreSight modules, but support is absent. In most cases, the issue is hidden because the atclk clock is shared by multiple CoreSight modules and the clock is enabled anyway by other drivers. The first three patches address this issue. The programming clock (pclk) management in CoreSight drivers does not use the devm_XXX() variant APIs, the drivers needs to manually disable and release clocks for errors and for normal module exit. However, the drivers miss to disable clocks during module exit. The atclk may also not be disabled in CoreSight drivers during module exit. By using devm APIs, patches 04 and 05 fix clock disabling issues. Another issue is pclk might be enabled twice in init phase - once by AMBA bus driver, and again by CoreSight drivers. This is fixed in patch 06. Patches 07 to 09 refactor the clock related code. Patch 07 consolidats the clock initialization into a central place. Patch 08 makes the clock enabling sequence consistent. Patch 09 removes redundant condition checks and adds error handling in runtime PM. This series is verified on Arm64 Hikey960 platform. Changes from v1: - Moved the coresight_get_enable_clocks() function into CoreSight core layer (James). - Added comments for clock naming "apb_pclk" and "apb" (James). - Re-ordered patches for easier understanding (Anshuman). - Minor improvement for commit log in patch 01 (Anshuman).

[PATCH v4] coresight: Add a KUnit test for coresight_find_default_sink()

NO_SG implies PREFER_LARGE behavior, except that NO_SG additionally hard fails if it can't do it in one alloc. But I think you shouldn't have to set them both to get the correct behavior.

[PATCH v4 0/7] Arm CoreSight: Support AUX pause and resume

by Leo Yan

This series is to enable AUX pause and resume on Arm CoreSight. The first patch extracts the trace unit controlling operations to two functions. These two functions will be used by AUX pause and resume. Patches 02 and 03 change the ETMv4 driver to prepare callback functions for AUX pause and resume. Patch 04 changes the ETM perf layer to support AUX pause and resume in a perf session. The patch 05 re-enables sinks after buffer update, based on it, the patch 06 updates buffer on AUX pause occasion, which can mitigate the trace data lose issue. Patch 07 documents the AUX pause usages with Arm CoreSight. This patch set has been verified on the Hikey960 board. It is suggested to disable CPUIdle (add `nohlt` option in Linux command line) when verifying this series. ETM and funnel drivers are found issues during CPU suspend and resume which will be addressed separately. Changes from v3: - Re-enabled sink in buffer update callbacks (Suzuki). Changes from v2: - Rebased on CoreSight next branch. - Dropped the uAPI 'update_buf_on_pause' and updated document respectively (Suzuki). - Renamed ETM callbacks to .pause_perf() and .resume_perf() (Suzuki). - Minor improvement for error handling in the AUX resume flow. Changes from v1: - Added validation function pointers in pause and resume APIs (Mike).

[PATCH v4 0/7] coresight: Clear self hosted claim tag on probe

by James Clark

I've gotten stuck a few times with unusable Coresight after a warm boot due to lingering claim tags, especially when testing the Coresight panic patchsets. This change does some tidy ups, adds some debug messages and clears the self hosted claim tag on probe. The last two commits are unrelated tidyups but they touch some of the same functions so to avoid extra conflicts I'm including them here. This gets as far as fixing the claim tag issue, but there is some other state not being cleared on probe that results in the following error. This can be fixed up as a later change: coresight tmc_etf0: timeout while waiting for TMC to be Ready coresight tmc_etf0: Failed to enable : TMC is not ready Changes in v4: - Add _unlocked() suffix for consistency - s/cs_access/csdev_access/ - Link to v3: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250320-james-coresight-claim-tags-v3-0-d3145c15… Changes in v3: - Collapse rename and locked/unlocked addition commits of coresight_clear_self_claim_tag() so we don't change the name twice. - Make coresight_clear_self_claim_tag() a bit more generic by only doing UNLOCK for MMIO devices (although there is no use of this right now) - Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250318-james-coresight-claim-tags-v2-0-e9c8a9cd… Changes in v2: * Revert most of the interface changes, just call coresight_clear_self_claim_tag() directly. This is possible because we're not doing the read first, so it has fewer knock on effects. * Split out the change to add struct cs_access to etm3x * Add another warning for racing with external debugger -- 2.34.1 --- James Clark (7): coresight: Convert tag clear function to take a struct csdev_access coresight: Only check bottom two claim bits coresight: Add claim tag warnings and debug messages coresight: etm3x: Convert raw base pointer to struct coresight access coresight: Clear self hosted claim tag on probe coresight: Remove inlines from static function definitions coresight: Remove extern from function declarations drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-catu.c | 12 +-- drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-core.c | 87 ++++++++++++++-------- drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-cti-core.c | 2 + drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-etb10.c | 4 +- drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-etm.h | 6 +- drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-etm3x-core.c | 28 +++---- .../hwtracing/coresight/coresight-etm3x-sysfs.c | 8 +- drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-etm4x-core.c | 10 ++- .../hwtracing/coresight/coresight-etm4x-sysfs.c | 4 +- drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-funnel.c | 1 + drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-platform.c | 26 +++---- drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-priv.h | 20 ++--- drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-replicator.c | 3 +- drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-stm.c | 6 +- .../coresight/coresight-syscfg-configfs.c | 2 +- drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-tmc-core.c | 9 ++- drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-tmc-etr.c | 16 ++-- drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-trbe.c | 18 ++--- include/linux/coresight.h | 40 +++++----- 19 files changed, 168 insertions(+), 134 deletions(-) --- base-commit: 5442d22da7dbff3ba8c6720fc6f23ea4934d402d change-id: 20250317-james-coresight-claim-tags-ae1461f1f5e0 Best regards, -- James Clark <james.clark(a)linaro.org>

[PATCH] coresight: Disable MMIO logging for coresight stm driver

by Mao Jinlong

When read/write registers with readl_relaxed and writel_relaxed, log_read_mmio and log_write_mmio will be called. If mmio trace is enabled to STM, STM driver will write the register to send the trace and writel_relaxed will be called again. The circular call like callstack below will happen. Disable mmio logging for stm driver to avoid this issue.
