perf cs-etm: Print the decoder name

2021-09-03T11:17:25Z

Use the real name of the decoder instead of hard-coding "ETM" to avoid confusion when the trace is ETE. This also now distinguishes between ETMv3 and ETMv4.

perf cs-etm: Create ETE decoder

2021-09-03T11:16:36Z

If the magic number indicates ETE instantiate a OCSD_BUILTIN_DCD_ETE decoder instead of OCSD_BUILTIN_DCD_ETMV4I. ETE is the new trace feature for Armv9. Testing performed ================= * Old files with v0 and v1 headers for ETMv4 still open correctly * New files with new magic number open on new versions of perf * New files with new magic number fail to open on old versions of perf * Decoding with the ETE decoder results in the same output as the ETMv4 decoder as long as there are no new ETE packet types Reviewed-by: Leo Yan Signed-off-by: James Clark Acked-by: Suzuki Poulouse Cc: Alexander Shishkin Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: John Garry Cc: Mark Rutland Cc: Mathieu Poirier Cc: Mike Leach Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Will Deacon Cc: coresight@lists.linaro.org Cc: linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org Link: https //lore.kernel.org/r/20210806134109.1182235-8-james.clark@arm.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

perf cs-etm: Use traceID aware memory callback API

2019-06-10T18:50:02Z

When working with CPU-wide traces different traceID may be found in the same stream. As such we need to use the decoder callback that provides the traceID in order to know the thread context being decoded.

perf cs-etm: Move packet queue out of decoder structure

2019-06-10T18:50:01Z

The decoder needs to work with more than one traceID queue if we want to support CPU-wide scenarios with N:1 source/sink topologies. As such move the packet buffer and related fields out of the decoder structure and into the cs_etm_queue structure.

perf cs-etm: Make cs_etm__run_decoder() queue independent

2019-02-14T18:18:07Z

This patch makes decoding of auxtrace buffer centered around a struct cs_etm_queue. This eliminates surperflous variables and is a precursor for work that simplifies the main decoder loop.

Add traceID in packet, thus we can use traceID to retrieve metadata pointer from traceID-metadata tuple.

perf cs-etm: Add exception number in exception packet

2019-02-06T13:00:40Z

When an exception packet comes, it contains the information for exception number; the exception number indicates the exception types, so from it we can know if the exception is taken for interrupt, system call or other traps, etc. This patch simply adds a field in cs_etm_packet struct, it records exception number for exception packet that will then be used to properly identify exception types to the perf synthesize mechanic.

perf cs-etm: Set sample flags for instruction range packet

2019-02-06T13:00:40Z

The perf sample data contains flags to indicate the hardware trace data is belonging to which type branch instruction, thus this can be used to print out the human readable string. Arm CoreSight ETM sample data is missed to set flags and it is always set to zeros, this results in perf tool skips to print string for instruction types. This patch is to set branch instruction flags for instruction range packet.

perf cs-etm: Add last instruction information in packet

2019-02-06T13:00:40Z

Decoder provides last instruction related information, these information can be used for trace analysis; specifically we can get to know what kind of branch instruction has been executed, mainly the information are contained in three element fields: last_i_type: this is significant type for waypoint calculation, it indicates the last instruction is one of immediate branch instruction, indirect branch instruction, instruction barrier (ISB), or data barrier (DSB/DMB). last_i_subtype: this is used for instruction sub type, it can be branch with link, ARMv8 return instruction, ARMv8 eret instruction (return from exception), or ARMv7 instruction which could imply return (e.g. MOV PC, LR; POP { ,PC}). last_instr_cond: it indicates if the last instruction was conditional. But these three fields are not saved into cs_etm_packet struct, thus cs-etm layer don't know related information and cannot generate sample flags for branch instructions. This patch add corresponding three new fields in cs_etm_packet struct and save related value into the packet structure, it is preparation for supporting sample flags.
