This patch series reworks the 32-bit ARM perf code into a library, and
migrates the arm64 perf code over to it, gaining support for
heterogeneous PMUs. Support is then added for Cortex-A53 and Cortex-A57
as used in Juno systems.
Previously the librification [1] and arm64 migration [2] were separate
series, but as the bulk of the librification made it for v4.2-rc1 the
remaining work is mostly trivial.
With this series applied, perf can be used to monitor 64-bit systems with
heterogeneous PMUs in an identical fashion to 32-bit systems, e.g.
$ perf stat -e armv8_cortex_a53/config=0x11/ -e armv8_cortex_a57/config=0x11/ ./a.out
Performance counter stats for './a.out':
185250238 armv8_cortex_a53/config=0x11/ [55.34%]
225006550 armv8_cortex_a57/config=0x11/ [43.96%]
0.213953840 seconds time elapsed
$ perf stat -e cycles ./a.out
Performance counter stats for './a.out':
830917902 cycles [64.60%]
1.023141420 seconds time elapsed
Since v2 [3]:
* Rebase to v4.2-rc1
* Split MAINTAINERS changes
* Add arm64 perf code to MAINTAINERS entry
Thanks,
Mark.
