Yes.  As Mike said, these new macros will cause big changes in OpenCSD,
so I don't have strong opinion to add more macros for tracer versions.

Agreed.  Just wander if need to define the struct cs_ete_trace_params
as below?

  struct cs_ete_trace_params {
          u32 reg_idr0;
          u32 reg_idr1;
          u32 reg_idr2;
          u32 reg_idr8;
          u32 reg_configr;
          u32 reg_traceidr;
          u32 reg_devarch;
  }

The tracer has two fields:

- ARCHID bits[15:12]
- REVISION, bits[19:16]

For ETE its ARCHID[15:12] is 0x5 and ETMv4.x's ARCHID[15:12] is 0x4.
So checking ARCHID[15:12] is the right way to distinguish if the
tracer is ETE and creates corresponding decoder for it.

When reviewed this patch I assumed we also need to create ETE decoder
if ETMv4.x has supported packet extension.  As Mike confirmed, all
ETMv4.x tracers keep to use existed way to create decoder; so it's not
necessary to check REVISION bit field.

So please ignore my this comment.

Thanks,
Leo
