Hi Ganapatrao,
I think I see what the problem is, but I'm wondering if a better fix
would be to further decouple the CPU ID from the index in the array.
With your change it's not clear what happens with sparse recordings, for
example 'perf record -e cs_etm// -C 1,3,5'. And it seems like there is
some wastage in the zalloc here for example if only CPU 256 is traced
then we'd still make 256 decoders but 255 of them would be unused?
I tried to test sparse recordings, but your change doesn't apply to the
latest coresight/next branch. I did notice that 'perf report -D' doesn't
work with them on coresight/next (it just quits), but I couldn't see if
that's fixed with your change.
Would a better fix not be to keep the metadata loops from 0-N and
instead save the CPU ID in cs_etm_decoder_params or the decoder. That
way it would support both sparse and not starting from 0 cases? I think
the code would be better if it's worded like "i < recorded_cpus" rather
than "i < cpu" to make it clear that i isn't actually the CPU ID it's
just an index.
Also a new test for this scenario would probably be a good idea.
Thanks
James
