PATCH v3 1/1 dt-bindings: riscv: add SBI PMU event mappings

From: Conor Dooley <[email protected]>

The SBI PMU extension requires a firmware to be aware of the event to counter/mhpmevent mappings supported by the hardware. OpenSBI may use DeviceTree to describe the PMU mappings. This binding is currently described in markdown in OpenSBI (since v1.0 in Dec 2021) & used by QEMU since v7.2.0.

Import the binding for use while validating dtb dumps from QEMU and upcoming hardware (eg JH7110 SoC) that will make use of the event mapping.

---
Changes in v3:
- align descriptions to SBI spec (and fix a misinterpretation of mine)
- switch to a nested items description, since the descriptions are for the elements of each entry, not the entries themselves

Changes in v2:
- use the schema mechanism for dependancies between properties
- +CC perf maintainers...
- move the matrix element descriptions into regular item descriptions rather than doing so freeform in the property description
- drop some description text that no longer applies since changes were made to the SBI spec
- drop mention of the "generic platform" which is OpenSBI specific
- drop the min/max items from the matrices, they don't appear to be needed?

Note:
OpenSBI is BSD-2-Clause licensed so I am unsure as to whether I can submit it with a dual license.

+description: |
+  SBI PMU extension supports allow supervisor software to configure, start &
+  stop any performance counter at anytime. Thus, a user can leverage full
+  capability of performance analysis tools such as perf if the SBI PMU
+  extension is enabled. The OpenSBI implementation makes the following
+  assumptions about the hardware platform:
+
+    The platform must provide information about PMU event to counter mapping
+    via device tree or platform specific hooks. Otherwise, the SBI PMU
+    extension will not be enabled.
+
+    The platforms should provide information about the PMU event selector
+    values that should be encoded in the expected value of MHPMEVENTx while
+    configuring MHPMCOUNTERx for that specific event. This can be done via a
+    device tree or platform specific hooks. The exact value to be written to
+    the MHPMEVENTx is completely dependent on the platform.
+
+    For information on the SBI specification see the section "Performance
+    Monitoring Unit Extension" of:
+      https://github.com/riscv-non-isa/riscv-sbi-doc/blob/master/riscv-sbi.adoc

Drew, Atish,

Mainly just a question about the OpenSBI doc at the end. Gonna fix up the rest of the wording and resend in a few.

The SBI PMU extension requires a firmware to be aware of the event to counter/mhpmevent mappings supported by the hardware. OpenSBI may use DeviceTree to describe the PMU mappings. This binding is currently described in markdown in OpenSBI (since v1.0 in Dec 2021) & used by QEMU since v7.2.0.

Import the binding for use while validating dtb dumps from QEMU and upcoming hardware (eg JH7110 SoC) that will make use of the event mapping.

Most of this stuff comes directly from the doc in OpenSBI that I copy-pasted. Atish, what do you wanna do once the binding is upstream about the original doc?

Thanks,
Conor.

I will fixup the doc based on the final version of the binding once it is upstream.
