[PATCH] coresight: Handle build path error

[PATCH] coresight: Handle build path error

[Suzuki K Poulose]

Enabling a component via sysfs (echo 1 > enable_source), would
trigger building a path from the enabled sources to the sink.
If there is an error in the process (e.g, sink not enabled or
the device (CPU corresponding to ETM) is not online), we never report
failure, except for leaving a message in the dmesg.

Do proper error checking for the build path and return the error.

Before:
 $ echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu2/online
 $ echo 1 > /sys/devices/cs_etm/cpu2/enable_source
 $ echo $?
 0

After:
 $ echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu2/online
 $ echo 1 > /sys/devices/cs_etm/cpu2/enable_source
 -bash: echo: write error: No such device or address

This patch looks good - thanks for the fix.  Due to how late we are in
the cycle I'd ask Greg to pick it up right away but there is a
(couple) of typos in my name on the CC line.  Either resend another
patch with the correct spelling or remove the CC line altogether.

Thanks,
Mathieu

Enabling a component via sysfs (echo 1 > enable_source), would
trigger building a path from the enabled sources to the sink.
If there is an error in the process (e.g, sink not enabled or
the device (CPU corresponding to ETM) is not online), we never report
failure, except for leaving a message in the dmesg.

Do proper error checking for the build path and return the error.

Before:
 $ echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu2/online
 $ echo 1 > /sys/devices/cs_etm/cpu2/enable_source
 $ echo $?
 0

After:
 $ echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu2/online
 $ echo 1 > /sys/devices/cs_etm/cpu2/enable_source
 -bash: echo: write error: No such device or address

Thanks for the correction:

Greg, given how small the changes are can you pick this up?  Otherwise
I'll simply keep it in my tree.

Thanks,
Mathieu

Should this go in for rc2 as a fix ?

It did not make it in time for the 4.7 merge window - it will be part
of the 4.8 cycle.

Thanks,
