[PATCH 1/2] coresight: etm4x: fix inconsistencies with sysfs configration
Posted by Yeoreum Yun 2 weeks, 6 days ago
The current ETM4x configuration via sysfs can lead to the following
inconsistencies:

  - If a configuration is modified via sysfs while a perf session is
    active, the running configuration may differ between before
    a sched-out and after a subsequent sched-in.

  - Once a perf session is enabled, some read-only register fields
    (e.g., TRCSSCSR<n>) may not be reported correctly,
    because drvdata->config is cleared while enabling with perf mode,
    even though the information was previously read via etm4_init_arch_data().

To resolve these inconsistencies, the configuration should be separated into:

  - active_config, which represents the currently applied configuration
  - config, which stores the settings configured via sysfs.

Thank you for the patch. The patch looks good to me. Some minor comments
below.

To be more precise, it is the "Applied configuration for the current 
session"

>    - config, which stores the settings configured via sysfs.

While we are at it, should we stop using the drvdata->config for the
"capabilities" for the ETM (e.g., TRCSSCSRn in ss_status ?) Instead
we could save it in "drvdata->ss_status". This keeps everything
separated:

1. Boot time probed capabilities of ETM
2. Sysfs configuration for the next Run
3. Current active configuration for the ETM (sysfs or perf)
