Subject: [PATCH 6.6.y] coresight: etm3x: Fix cntr_val_show() to match cntr_val_store() behavior
Date: Tue,  8 Sep 2026 08:36:12 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260908123612.2107089-1-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <2026090327-scion-anaconda-5706@gregkh>

From: Kuan-Wei Chiu <visitorckw@gmail.com>

[ Upstream commit 41fb4e925528aefa4b7a5f76c7f81db99c0d0f38 ]

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.
