[RFC PATCH v3 0/5] CXL 3.0 Performance Monitoring Unit support

[Jonathan Cameron <Jonathan.Cameron@huawei.com>]

Chances since v2:

- Various minor tweaks from Dave Jiang,
- Rebase on Davidlohr's generic handling of IRQs in the cxl/pci driver.
Note that I don't think that infrastructure is a good fit, so part of
reason for this RFC v3 is to allow us to discuss how best to handle that.
I've added a bit more detail in comments on patch 3.

Updated cover letter:

The CXL rev 3.0 specification introduces a CXL Performance Monitoring
Unit definition. CXL components may have any number of these blocks. The
definition is highly flexible, but that does bring complexity in the
driver.

Initially posted as an RFC for a number of reasons.
1) The QEMU model against which this was developed needs tidying up and
   review for correctness. Latest tree at
   https://gitlab.com/jic23/qemu branch cxl-2022-10-17
   It's backed up behind other series that I plan to upstream first.
2) There are quite a lot of corner cases that will need working through
   with variants of the model, or I'll have to design a pathological
   set of CPMUs to hit all the corner cases in one go.
3) I'm not sure it makes sense to hang this of the cxl/pci driver but
   couldn't really figure out where else in the current structure we could
   make it fit cleanly.
4) Open question about the 'generic' handling of interrupts in cxl/pci.c
5) I'm not sure how to expose to user space the sets of events that may
   be summed (given by a mask in the Counter Event Capabilities registers).
   For now the driver advertises the individual events. Each individual
   event may form part of multiple overlapping groups for example.
   It may be a case of these allowed combinations only being discoverable
   by requesting a combination and checking for errors on start.
6) Driver location. In past perf maintainers have requested perf drivers
   for PCI etc be under drivers/perf. That would require moving some
   CXL headers to be more generally visible, but is certainly possible
   if there is agreement between CXL and perf maintainers on the correct
   location.
7) Documentation needs improving, but I didn't want to spend too much
   time on that whilst we have so many open questions.  I'll separately
   raise the question about pmu->dev parenting which is mentioned in the
   Docs patch introduction. (oops - haven't done that yet)
