I have no sufficient knowledge for PCI, but this description and below
2 lines are not clear for me. Should not it be: "The memory write TLPs
from the downstream devices to the root port"?

The command has specified the PCI port "0000:16:00.0", it still outputs
stats for 'system wide'. And it also outputs results for other ports.
This is confused.

It's good to alphabet ordered for headers.

The list head can be 'static' type.

My feeling is 'hisi_pcie_root_ports_num' is redundant. You can check
if the list is empty with list_empty() in below code, therefore, the
variable 'hisi_pcie_root_ports_num' is not needed anymore.

I also think 'rp->mask' is not necessary as it can be replaced by
BIT(rp->dev << 1).

And it's not necessary to create hisi_pcie_init_root_port_mask(), as
it's only used in a single place.

The code firstly creates PCI port lists for all Hisilicon PCIe ports,
then it selects the port based on passed port name.

I am wandering why cannot create the PCI root port list based on the
passed PCI port name, if so, the field 'rp->selected' is not needed
anymore.

Same as the comment above, the function
hisi_pcie_root_ports_select_all() is not needed if a PCI list can be
created properly in the first place.

Here is hard coded that every event must contains the all 6 metrics (
IN_MWR/IN_MRD/IN_CPL/OUT_MWR/OUT_MRD/OUT_CPL). Thus, a user has no
chance to specify metrics for statistics.

As Robin mentioned in another email, PCI root port statistics should
not bind to Arm architecture. After applying this code, it's binding
iostat exclusively with Hisilicon PCI root ports on Arm, as a result,
it is impossible to support other PMUs for iostat support.

I understand you saw the implementation 'arch/x86/util/iostat.c' which
binds the iostat with x86 arch. And your code just studies it to bind
PCI root port stats with Arm arch.

Here, I think the methodology should be: we need take Hisilicon PCI
root port as a general PMU for I/O stats, it should not bind to any
CPU arch. We need to consider to extend 'perf iostat' for this
purpose.

To be honest, I am not familiar with 'perf iostat', I will take a bit
more time to look into it and share back if I have more finding.

Thanks,
Leo
