[RFC PATCH v2 00/13] CoreSight CTI Driver

by Mike Leach

CTIs are defined in the device tree and associated with other CoreSight devices. The core CoreSight code has been modified to enable the registration of the CTI devices on the same bus as the other CoreSight components, but as these are not actually trace generation / capture devices, they are not part of the Coresight path when generating trace. However, the definition of the standard CoreSight device has been extended to include a reference to an associated CTI device, and the enable / disable trace path operations will auto enable/disable any associated CTI devices at the same time. Programming is at present via sysfs - a full API is provided to utilise the hardware capabilities. As CTI devices are unprogrammed by default, the auto enable describe above will have no effect until explicit programming takes place. A set of device tree bindings specific to the CTI topology has been defined. Documentation has been updated to describe both the CTI hardware, its use and programming in sysfs, and the new dts bindings required. Tested on DB410 board, 5.1-rc5 Changes since v1: 1) Significant restructuring of the source code. Adds cti-sysfs file and cti device tree file. Patches add per feature rather than per source file. 2) CPU type power event handling for hotplug moved to CoreSight core, with generic registration interface provided for all CPU bound CS devices to use. 3) CTI signal interconnection details in sysfs now generated dynamically from connection lists in driver. This to fix issue with multi-line sysfs output in previous version. 4) Full device tree bindings for DB410 and Juno provided (to the extent that CTI information is available). 5) AMBA driver update for UCI IDs are now upstream so no longer included in this set.

[PATCH v3 0/4] coresight: Do not call smp_processor_id from preemptible contexts

by Suzuki K Poulose

We have a few places where we call smp_processor_id() from preemptible contexts during the perf buffer handling. We do this to figure out the numa node for the allocation in case the event is not CPU bound. Use numa_node_id() instead in such cases to avoid a splat. Changes since V2: - Use NUMA_NO_NODE instead of numa_node_id() for event->cpu == -1.

[PATCH v4 00/30] coresight: Support for ACPI bindings

by Suzuki K Poulose

This series adds the support for CoreSight devices on ACPI based platforms. The device connections are encoded as _DSD graph property[0], with CoreSight specific extensions to indicate the direction of data flow as described in [1]. Components attached to CPUs are listed as child devices of the corresponding CPU, removing explicit links to the CPU like we do in the DT. The majority of the series cleans up the driver and prepares the subsystem for platform agnostic firwmare probing, naming scheme, searching etc. We introduce platform independent helpers to parse the platform supplied information. Thus we rename the platform handling code from: of_coresight.c => coresight-platform.c The CoreSight driver creates shadow devices that appear on the Coresight bus, in addition to the real devices (e.g, AMBA bus devices). The name of these devices match the real device. This makes the device name a bit cryptic for ACPI platform. So this series also introduces a generic platform agnostic device naming scheme for the shadow Coresight devices. Towards this we also make changes to the way we lookup devices to resolve the connections, as we can't use the names to identify the devices. So, we use the "fwnode_handle" of the real device for the device lookups. Towards that we clean up the drivers to keep track of the "CoreSight" device rather than the "real" device. However, all real operations, like DMA allocation, Power management etc. must be performed on the real device which is the parent of the shadow device. Finally we add the support for parsing the ACPI platform data. The power management support is missing in the ACPI (and this is not specific to CoreSight). The firmware must ensure that the respective power domains are turned on. Applies on v5.2-rc1 Tested on a Juno-r0 board with ACPI bindings patch (Patch 31/30) added on top of [2]. You would need to make sure that the debug power domain is turned on before the Linux kernel boots. (e.g, connect the DS-5 to the Juno board while at UEFI). arm32 code is only compile tested.

[RFC PATCH v2 0/1] Timestamp perf samples

by Wojciech Żmuda

From: Wojciech Zmuda <wzmuda(a)n7space.com> This patchset adds time notion to perf instruction and branch samples to allow coarse time measurement of code blocks execution. The simplest verification is visibility of the time field in 'perf script' output: root@zynq:~# perf record -e cs_etm/timestamp,(a)fe970000.etr/u -a sleep 1 Couldn't synthesize bpf events. [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.262 MB perf.data ] root@zynq:~# perf script --ns -F cpu,comm,time perf [002] 9546.053455325: perf [002] 9546.053455340: perf [002] 9546.053455344: (...) sleep [003] 9546.060163742: sleep [003] 9546.060163754: sleep [003] 9546.060163766: (...) ntpd [001] 9546.389083194: ntpd [001] 9546.389083400: ntpd [001] 9546.389086319: (...) The step above works only if trace has been collected in CPU-wide mode because of some perf event flags mismatch I'm working on fixing. Timestamps in subsequent samples are monotonically increasing. The only exception are discontinuities in trace. From my understanding, we can't timestamp discontinuities reasonably, since after decoder synchronizes back after trace loss, it needs to wait for another timestamp packet. Thus, time value of such samples stays at 0x0. Another way to access these values is to use the perf script engine, which I used for validation of the feature. The script below calculates timestamp differences of two consecutive branches sharing the same branch address. This is a simple example of execution time fluctuation detector. from __future__ import print_function import os import sys sys.path.append(os.environ['PERF_EXEC_PATH'] + \ '/scripts/python/Perf-Trace-Util/lib/Perf/Trace') from perf_trace_context import * target_start_addr = int('4005e4', 16) # 0x4005e4 is func() from listing below branch = dict() branch['from'] = 0 branches = [] def process_event(s): global branch global branches sample = s['sample'] branch['cpu'] = sample['cpu'] if not branch['from']: branch['from'] = sample['addr'] branch['ts'] = sample['time'] return branch['to'] = sample['ip'] if not branch['to']: branch['from'] = 0 branch['ts'] = 0 return if branch['from'] and branch['to']: branches.append(branch.copy()) branch['from'] = 0 return def trace_end(): global branches count = 0 timestamp_start = 0 print("Got {0} samples:".format(len(branches))) for b in branches: if b['from'] == target_start_addr: if not timestamp_start: timestamp_start = b['ts'] continue print("[{0}]: ts diff = 0x{1:x} - 0x{2:x} = {3:d}".format(count, b['ts'], timestamp_start, b['ts'] - timestamp_start)) count = count + 1 timestamp_start = b['ts'] The following function was traced: static int func(int cnt) { volatile int x = 0; static int i; x += cnt + 0xdeadbeefcafeb00b; (...) /* repeats ~100 times */ if (i++ % 3 == 0) // Every third execution is longer usleep(1000); return x; } root@zynq:~# perf record -m,16K -e cs_etm/timestamp,(a)fe970000.etr/u \ --filter 'filter func @./program \ --per-thread ./program Couldn't synthesize bpf events.

At the listing above it is visible that every third execution of the function lasted longer than the other two. It is a naive example and could be enhanced to point to the area that caused the disruption by examining events 'in the middle' of the traced code range. Applies cleanly on Mathieu's 5.1-rc3-cpu-wide-v3 branch. Changes for V2: - move packet timestamping logic to decoder. Front end only uses this information to timestamp samples (as suggested by Mathieu). - leave original behaviour of CPU-wide mode, where decoder is stopped and front end is triggered about pending queue with timestamp packet. At the same time, always adjust next and current timestamp in both CPU-wide and per-thread modes (as suggested by Mathieu). - when timestamp packet is encountered, timestamp range and discontinuity packets waiting in the queue, that are not yet consumed by the front end (as suggested by Mathieu). - don't timestamp exceptions, since they are not turned into branch nor instruction samples. - fix timestamping of the last branch sample before discontinuity appears (as suggested by Leo).

[RFC PATCH v3] perf test: Introduce script for Arm CoreSight testing

by Leo Yan

We need a simple method to test Perf with Arm CoreSight drivers, this could be used for smoke testing when new patch is coming for perf or CoreSight drivers, and we also can use the test to confirm if the CoreSight has been enabled successfully on new platforms. This patch introduces the shell script test_arm_coresight.sh which is under the 'pert test' framework. Simply to say, the testing rationale is source oriented testing, it traverses every source (now only refers to ETM device) and test its all possible sinks. To search the complete paths from one specific source to its sinks, this patch relies on the sysfs '/sys/bus/coresight/devices/devX/out:Y' for depth-first search (DFS) for iteration connected device nodes, if the output device is detected as one of ETR, ETF, or ETB types then it will test trace data recording and decoding for this PMU device. The script runs three output testings for every trace data: - Test branch samples dumping with 'perf script' command; - Test branch samples reporting with 'perf report' command; - Use option '--itrace=i1000i' to insert synthesized instructions events and the script will check if perf can output the percentage value successfully based on the instruction samples. If any device fails for the testing, the test will report failure and directly exit with error. This test will be only applied on the platform with PMU event 'cs_etm//', otherwise will skip the testing.

[PATCH 0/3] coresight: Expose device connections via sysfs

by Suzuki K Poulose

Coresight device connections are a bit complicated and is not exposed currently to the user. One has to look at the platform descriptions (DT bindings or ACPI bindings) to make an understanding. Given the new naming scheme, it will be helpful to have this information to choose the appropriate devices for tracing. This patch exposes the device connections via links in the sysfs directories. e.g, for a connection devA[OutputPort_X] -> devB[InputPort_Y] is represented as two symlinks: /sys/bus/coresight/.../devA/out:X -> /sys/bus/coresight/.../devB /sys/bus/coresight/.../devB/in:Y -> /sys/bus/coresight/.../devA Applies on coresight/next tree. This is split from the ACPI bindings series. No functional changes.

[PATCH 0/4] coresight: Do not call smp_processor_id from preemptible contexts

by Suzuki K Poulose

We have a few places where we call smp_processor_id() from preemptible contexts during the perf buffer handling. We do this to figure out the numa node for the allocation in case the event is not CPU bound. Use numa_node_id() instead in such cases to avoid a splat.
