[PATCH V3 00/18] coresight: tmc: make driver usable by Perf

From: Mathieu Poirier
Date: Fri Apr 22 2016 - 13:19:34 EST


This patchset makes the TMC driver usable from Perf by way of the
recently added AUX area functionality. Note that only the kernel
side of the operation is presented here. The user space perf tool
enhancement are kept here[1]. Upstreaming of that portion will
follow when the kernel side has been addressed.

The first 15 patches remodel the driver so that the functionality
is compartmented enough to be used as building blocks when interfacing
with the Perf subsystem.

Patch 16 and 17 implement the AUX area API, taking heavily on the existing
ETB10 implementation.

Finally patch 18 allows the TMC to be used as a link rather than a sink,
something that is required when dealing with an ETF component.

Best regards,
Mathieu

Changes for V3:
- Reworked drvdata::memwidth assignment.
- cleaned up coresight-tmc.h header file.
- Added WARN_ON[_ONCE]() on error paths.
- Added missing spinlock release.
- Using a type 'long' when dealing with local_[cmp]xchg()
- Added Suzuki K Poulose's Reviewed-by.

Changes for V2:
