Subject: [PATCH v2] coresight: etm3x: Fix cntr_val_show() to match cntr_val_store() behavior
Date: Mon, 1 Dec 2025 09:52:28 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251201095228.1905489-1-visitorckw@gmail.com> (raw)
The cntr_val_show() function was intended to print the values of all
counters using a loop. However, due to a buffer overwrite issue with
sprintf(), it effectively only displayed the value of the last counter.
The companion function, cntr_val_store(), allows users to modify a
specific counter selected by 'cntr_idx'. To maintain consistency
between read and write operations and to align with the ETM4x driver
behavior, modify cntr_val_show() to report only the value of the
currently selected counter.
This change removes the loop and the "counter %d:" prefix, printing
only the hexadecimal value. It also adopts sysfs_emit() for standard
sysfs output formatting.
Fixes: a939fc5a71ad ("coresight-etm: add CoreSight ETM/PTM driver")

Build test only.
Changes in v2:
- Redesigned the fix to match cntr_val_store() logic (display only the
currently selected counter) instead of attempting to list all
counters.
- Removed the loop and the "counter %d:" prefix.
- Switched from sprintf() to sysfs_emit().
- Refactored control flow to use a single return point.
