[PATCH 0/8] perf: arm: Make PMUv3 driver available for aarch32

From: Zaid Al-Bassam
Date: Thu Jan 26 2023 - 15:45:04 EST


Currently, PMUv3 driver is only available for ARMv8 aarch64
platforms, ARMv8 running in aarch32 mode dont have access to
the driver. This is, especially, a problem for ARMv8 platforms
that only have aarch32 support, like the Cortex-A32.

Make the PMUv3 driver available to arm arch (ARMv8 aarch32) by
moving the PMUv3 driver from arm64 to drivers, that makes the
driver common to both arm and arm64 architectures, then add
PMUv3 arm Support.

The main work in this patchset was made a while back by Marc
Zyngier on a private branch. This patchset rebases Marc's
patches to the latest kernel revision and adds additional
patches to accommodate the changes in the kernel since Marc
wrote the patches.

Marc Zyngier (5):
arm64: perf: Move PMUv3 driver to drivers/perf
arm64: perf: Abstract system register accesses away
ARM: Make CONFIG_CPU_V7 valid for 32bit ARMv8 implementations
ARM: perf: Allow the use of the PMUv3 driver on 32bit ARM
ARM: mach-virt: Select PMUv3 driver by default

Zaid Al-Bassam (3):
perf: pmuv3: Add common defines for the PMU version
perf: pmuv3: Add wrappers for KVM accesses
perf: pmuv3: Change GENMASK to GENMASK_ULL
