Subject: [PATCHv4 0/6] arm64: perf: heterogeneous PMU support
Date: Fri,  2 Oct 2015 10:55:02 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1443779708-26789-1-git-send-email-mark.rutland@arm.com> (raw)

This patch series moves the arm64 code over to the librified perf code now used
by 32-bit arm, in the process gaining support for heterogeneous PMUs. Tailored
support is then added for Cortex-A53 and Cortex-A57 as used in Juno systems.

With this series applied, perf can be used to monitor 64-bit systems with
heterogeneous PMUs in an identical fashion to 32-bit systems, e.g.

$ perf stat -e armv8_cortex_a53/config=0x11/ -e armv8_cortex_a57/config=0x11/ ./a.out 

 Performance counter stats for './a.out':

         185250238 armv8_cortex_a53/config=0x11/                                    [55.34%]
         225006550 armv8_cortex_a57/config=0x11/                                    [43.96%]

       0.213953840 seconds time elapsed

$ perf stat -e cycles ./a.out 

 Performance counter stats for './a.out':

         830917902 cycles                    [64.60%]

Since v2 [1]:
* Rebase to v4.2-rc1
* Split MAINTAINERS changes
* Add arm64 perf code to MAINTAINERS entry
Since v3 [2]
* Drop patches which made it for v4.3-rc1
* Don't bother with pmuv3 renaming

Thanks,
Mark.
