Cover letter [PATCHv3 00/14] arm_pmu: ACPI support
Quoted 22 lines · Mark Rutland

Hi,

This series implements ACPI support in the ARM PMU code. It borrows some code from Jeremy's series [1], but takes a different approach to probing and association, using the usual hotplug state machine, minimising external changes required, and simplifying the relationship with the common arm_pmu code.

The first few patches are preparatory cleanup/refactoring, with the latter half of the series being specific to ACPI support.

The series is based on Will's perf/updates branch [2]. I've pushed the whole series out to the arm/perf/acpi branch [3] of my kernel.org repo.

Due to the innards of the hotplug callback framework, it's not entirely safe to register a PMU in a hotplug callback. Due to this, we can only associated hotplugged CPUs with a PMU if a matching CPU was around at probe time. A similar restriction already applies to DT systems. We may be able to relax this with some future work.

I've given this some testing on a Juno platform (using SPIs). To see that IRQs are correctly associated, I've tested with the following:

   $ taskset -c ${SOME_CPU_HERE} perf record \
     -e armv8_pmuv3_0/cpu_cycles/ \
     -e armv8_pmuv3_1/cpu_cycles/ \
     cat /proc/interrupts

I've also booted with nr_cpus temporarily capped (passing maxcpus=) to test the association logic. This has also been tested in a VM using PPIs; I do not have access to a host machine which itself uses PPIs.

I have tried these patches on a Hisilicon D03 board.
The perf list, basic perf events and perf fuzzer results are all fine.

Since v1 [4]:
* Fix up ACPI bits per Lorenzo's request
* Accumulate tags
* Check presence of PMUv3

Since v2 [5]:
* Clean up GSIs when a request fails
* Rename parse/unparse functions
* Use cpuid_feature_extract_unsigned_field() for PMUVer
* Drop parking protocol cleanups. I'll resend these later.

Thanks,
Mark.
