Subject: [PATCH v1 0/7] perf arm-spe: Enable timestamp
Date:   Mon, 21 Dec 2020 16:35:50 +0800
Message-Id: <20201221083557.27642-1-leo.yan@linaro.org>
Precedence: bulk

As we know, the timestamp is important for AUX trace; it's mainly used
to correlate between perf events and AUX trace, allows to generate
events with time ordered manner.  There have several good examples of
enabling timestamp for AUX trace (like Intel-pt, Intel-bts, etc).

Since the conversion between TSC and kernel timestamp has been supported
on Arm64, TSC is a naming convention from x86, but perf now has reused
it to support Arm arch timer counter.

This patch set is to enable timestamp for Arm SPE trace.  It reads out
TSC parameters from mmap page and stores into auxtrace info structure;
the TSC parameters are used for conversion between timer counter and
kernel time and which is applied for Arm SPE samples.

This patch set can be clearly applied on perf/core branch with the
latest commit 2e7f545096f9 ("perf mem: Factor out a function to generate
sort order").  And it was tested on Hisilicon D06 platform.

After:

Leo Yan (7):
  perf arm-spe: Remove unused enum value ARM_SPE_PER_CPU_MMAPS
  perf arm-spe: Store TSC parameters in auxtrace info
  perf arm-spe: Dump TSC parameters
  perf arm-spe: Convert event kernel time to counter value
  perf arm-spe: Assign kernel time to synthesized event
  perf arm-spe: Bail out if the trace is later than perf event
  perf arm-spe: Don't wait for PERF_RECORD_EXIT event
