[PATCH v3 6/8] coresight: tmc-etf: Prevent per-thread events from sharing a sink

James Clark james.clark at linaro.org
Tue Jul 28 08:00:18 PDT 2026


Like the previous commit to ETR, ETF sinks shouldn't share per-thread
events. Fix it by returning -EBUSY if a second per-thread event tries to
use the same sink.

Fixes: 880af782c6e8 ("coresight: tmc-etf: Add support for CPU-wide trace scenarios")
