    Subject[PATCH v6 0/8] coresight: enable debug module
    Date
    ARMv8 architecture reference manual (ARM DDI 0487A.k) Chapter H7 "The
    Sample-based Profiling Extension" has description for sampling
    registers, we can utilize these registers to check program counter
    value with combined CPU exception level, secure state, etc. So this is
    helpful for CPU lockup bugs, e.g. if one CPU has run into infinite loop
    with IRQ disabled; the 'hang' CPU cannot switch context and handle any
    interrupt, so it cannot handle SMP call for stack dump, etc.

    This patch series is to enable coresight debug module with sample-based
    registers and register call back notifier for PCSR register dumping
    when panic happens, so we can see below dumping info for panic; and
    this patch series has considered the conditions for access permission
    for debug registers self, so this can avoid access debug registers when
    CPU power domain is off; the driver also try to figure out the CPU is
    in secure or non-secure state.

    Patch 0001 is to document the dt binding; patch 0002 is to document
    boot parameters used in kernel command line and add one detailed
    document to describe the Coresight debug module implementation, the
    clock and power domain impaction on the driver, some examples for
    usage.

    Patch 0003 is used to fix the func of_get_coresight_platform_data()
    doesn't properly drop the reference to the CPU node pointer; and
    patch 0004 is refactor to add new function of_coresight_get_cpu().
    Patch 0005 is to add const quality to structure device_node.

    Patch 0006 is the driver for CPU debug module.

    Patch 0007 in this series are to enable debug unit on 96boards Hikey,
    Patch 0008 is to enable debug on 96boards DB410c. Have verified on both
    two boards.

    We can enable debugging with two methods, adding parameters into kernel
    command line for build-in module:
    coresight_cpu_debug.enable=1

    Or we can wait the system has booted up to use debugfs nodes to enable
    debugging:
    # echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/coresight_cpu_debug/enable

    As result we can get below log after input command:
    echo c > /proc/sysrq-trigger:

    ARM external debug module:
    CPU[0]:
    EDPRSR: 0000000b (Power:On DLK:Unlock)
    EDPCSR: [<ffff00000808eb54>] handle_IPI+0xe4/0x150
    EDCIDSR: 00000000
    EDVIDSR: 90000000 (State:Non-secure Mode:EL1/0 Width:64bits VMID:0)
    CPU[1]:
    EDPRSR: 0000000b (Power:On DLK:Unlock)
    EDPCSR: [<ffff0000087a64c0>] debug_notifier_call+0x108/0x288
    EDCIDSR: 00000000
    EDVIDSR: 90000000 (State:Non-secure Mode:EL1/0 Width:64bits VMID:0)

    [...]

    Changes from v5:
    * According to Suzuki and Mathieu suggestions, refined debug module
    driver to drop unused structure members, refactored initialization
    code to distinguish hardware implementation features, refactored
    flow for forcing CPU powered up, supported pm_runtime operations.
    * Added one new doc file: Documentation/trace/coresight-cpu-debug.txt,
    which is used to describe detailed info for implementation, clock
    and power domain impaction on debug module, and exmaples for common
    usage.
    * Removed "idle constraints" from debug driver.

    Changes from v4:
    * This version is mainly credit to ARM colleagues many contribution
    ideas for better quality (Thanks a lot Suzuki, Mike and Sudeep!).
    * According to Suzuki suggestion, refined debug module driver to avoid
    memory leak for drvdata struct, handle PCSAMPLE_MODE=1, use flag
    drvdata.pc_has_offset to indicate if PCSR has offset, minor fixes.
    * According to Mathieu suggestion, refined dt binding description.
    * Changed driver to support module mode;
    * According to Mike suggestion and very appreciate the pseudo code,
    added support to force CPU powered up with register EDPRCR;
    * According to discussions, added command line and debugfs nodes to
    support enabling debugging for boot time, or later can dynamically
    enable/disable debugging by debugfs.
    * According to Rob Herring suggestion, one minor fixes in DT binding.
    * According to Stephen Boyd suggestion, add const quality to structure
    device_node. And used use of_cpu_device_node_get() to replace
    of_get_cpu_node() in patch 0003.

    Changes from v3:
    * Added Suzuki K Poulose's patch to fix issue for the func
    of_get_coresight_platform_data() doesn't properly drop the reference
    to the CPU node pointer.
    * According to Suzuki suggestion, added code to handl the corner case
    for ARMv8 CPU with aarch32 mode.
    * According to Suzuki suggestion, changed compatible string to
    "arm,coresight-cpu-debug".
    * According to Mathieu suggestion, added "power-domains" as optional
    properties.

    Changes from v2:
    * According to Mathieu Poirier suggestion, applied some minor fixes.
    * Added two extra patches for enabling debug module on Hikey.

    Changes from v1:
    * According to Mike Leach suggestion, removed the binding for debug
    module clocks which have been directly provided by CPU clocks.
    * According to Mathieu Poirier suggestion, added function
    of_coresight_get_cpu() and some minor refactors for debug module
    driver.

    Changes from RFC:
    * According to Mike Leach suggestion, added check for EDPRSR to avoid
    lockup; added supporting EDVIDSR and EDCIDSR registers.
    * According to Mark Rutland and Mathieu Poirier suggestion, rewrote
    the documentation for DT binding.
    * According to Mark and Mathieu suggestion, refined debug driver.
