But from the previous discussion, I thought that we wanted an entry to
cover all tools/perf/arch/arm64/ and other related folders. Or was it
just put all special interest parts (like SPE support) under one entry
and leave the other arm/arm64 parts to be caught by "PERFORMANCE EVENTS
SUBSYSTEM" entry?

Cheers,
John

Yes, I think we need to add below two items for Arm SPE:

F: tools/perf/util/arm-spe-decoder/*
F: tools/perf/util/arm-spe.*

I do not have the time to maintain anything outside of coresight -
listing individual files as I did removes any ambiguity on that front.
I'm happy to add tools/perf/arch/arm and tools/perf/arch/arm64/ if you
agree to maintain them. In that case you will have to be more
specific about the "other related folders" you are referring to above.

Thanks,
Mathieu

None of us have time for this, hence why I think putting us all in one entry
with all of the files listed there makes the most sense; then people do
whatever they can and try to help each other out based on how much time they
have. I think that's much better than fine-grained maintainership where a
given file has a single point of failure.

So I think it should include:

tools/perf/arch/arm64/
tools/pmu-events/arch/arm64/

along with the SPE and Coresight files.

Arnaldo would still handle the patches, so this is really about giving us a
chance to review incoming patches without having to fish them out from the
lists.

Thanks for the clarification - just wanted to make sure I don't sign
you guys up for something you didn't agree to.

Maybe "PERFORMANCE EVENTS SUBSYSTEM ARM64" would be more appropriate now.

As Leo mentioned, I was thinking of tools/perf/util/arm-spe-decoder/

And it's "R:" level, so none of the commitment associated with "M:". In
addition - and maybe most important - the linux-arm-kernel list will (or
should) be cc'ed.
