2021-01-28perf/arm-cmn: Fix PMU instance namingGravatar Robin Murphy 1-1/+1
Although it's neat to avoid the suffix for the typical case of a single PMU, it means systems with multiple CMN instances end up with inconsistent naming. I think it also breaks perf tool's "uncore alias" logic if the common instance prefix is also the full name of one. Avoid any surprises by not trying to be clever and simply numbering every instance, even when it might technically prove redundant.

2020-09-28perf: Add Arm CMN-600 PMU driverGravatar Robin Murphy 2-0/+66
Initial driver for PMU event counting on the Arm CMN-600 interconnect. CMN sports an obnoxiously complex distributed PMU system as part of its debug and trace features, which can do all manner of things like sampling, cross-triggering and generating CoreSight trace. This driver covers the PMU functionality, plus the relevant aspects of watchpoints for simply counting matching flits.

Pull Documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet: "Here are the main documentation changes for 5.5: - Various kerneldoc script enhancements. - More RST conversions; those are slowing down as we run out of things to convert, but we're a ways from done still. - Dan's "maintainer profile entry" work landed at last. Now we just need to get maintainers to fill in the profiles... - A reworking of the parallel build setup to work better with a variety of systems (and to not take over huge systems entirely in particular). - The MAINTAINERS file is now converted to RST during the build. Hopefully nobody ever tries to print this thing, or they will need to load a lot of paper. - A script and documentation making it easy for maintainers to add Link: tags at commit time. Also included is the removal of a bunch of spurious CR characters" * tag 'docs-5.5a' of git://git.lwn.net/linux: (91 commits) docs: remove a bunch of stray CRs docs: fix up the maintainer profile document libnvdimm, MAINTAINERS: Maintainer Entry Profile Maintainer Handbook: Maintainer Entry Profile MAINTAINERS: Reclaim the P: tag for Maintainer Entry Profile docs, parallelism: Rearrange how jobserver reservations are made docs, parallelism: Do not leak blocking mode to other readers docs, parallelism: Fix failure path and add comment Documentation: Remove bootmem_debug from kernel-parameters.txt Documentation: security: core.rst: fix warnings Documentation/process/howto/kokr: Update for 4.x -> 5.x versioning Documentation/translation: Use Korean for Korean translation title docs/memory-barriers.txt: Remove remaining references to mmiowb() docs/memory-barriers.txt/kokr: Update I/O section to be clearer about CPU vs thread docs/memory-barriers.txt/kokr: Fix style, spacing and grammar in I/O section Documentation/kokr: Kill all references to mmiowb() docs/memory-barriers.txt/kokr: Rewrite "KERNEL I/O BARRIER EFFECTS" section docs: Add initial documentation for devfreq Documentation: Document how to get links with git am docs: Add request_irq() documentation ...
