Coresight includes debug module and usually the module connects with CPU
debug logic. ARMv8 architecture reference manual (ARM DDI 0487A.k) has
description for related info in "Part H: External Debug".
Chapter H7 "The Sample-based Profiling Extension" introduces several
sampling registers, e.g. we can check program counter value with
combined CPU exception level, secure state, etc. So this is helpful for
analysis CPU lockup scenarios, e.g. if one CPU has run into infinite
loop with IRQ disabled. In this case the CPU cannot switch context and
handle any interrupt (including IPIs), as the result it cannot handle
SMP call for stack dump.
This patch is to enable coresight debug module, so firstly this driver
is to bind apb clock for debug module and this is to ensure the debug
module can be accessed from program or external debugger. And the driver
uses sample-based registers for debug purpose, e.g. when system detects
the CPU lockup and trigger panic, the driver will dump program counter
and combined context registers (EDCIDSR, EDVIDSR); by parsing context
registers so can quickly get to know CPU secure state, exception level,
etc.
The problem is, it is not guaranteed that the EDPCSR_Hi, EDCIDSR & EDVIDSR are
updated as a side effect of a memory mapped access (which is what we do here) to the
EDPCSR_Lo.
Section H.7.1.2 : Reads of EDPCSRs (in ARM DDI 0487A.k) :
"The indirect writes to EDCIDSR, EDVIDSR, and EDPCSRhi might not occur for a memory-mapped access
to the external debug interface. For more information, see Memory-mapped accesses to the external debug
interface on page H8-4968."
So we cannot really rely on the values in EDVIDSR which we use to make further decisions. So I
am wondering if this is really guranteed to be useful.
Some of the debug module registers are located in CPU power domain, so
in the driver it has checked the power state for CPU before accessing
registers within CPU power domain. For most safe way to use this driver,
it's suggested to disable CPU low power states, this can simply set
"nohlt" in kernel command line.

I guess this doesn't help for an ARMv8 32bit only core (e.g, Cortex-A32). And
unfortunately, there are conflicting definitions for the values for PCSROffset w.r.t
ARMv8 and ARMv7.
DBGDEVID1[3:0] For ARMv7 :
0000 - Sample offset applies based on the instruction state.
0001 - No offset applies.
EDDEVID1[3:0] For ARMv8 :
0000 - EDPCSR not implemented
0010 - EDPCSR implemented without offsets, but do not use in AArch32 state!
So there is no easy way to make sense of the value, unless you know which version
of the architecture is in use. Or may be we could co-relate it with the value from
DEVID.
i.e, EDPCSR is not implemented do not register this device, see comments on debug_probe().
( And we should also include the following test for 32bit code to see if edpcsr is implemented.
See comments on debug_init_arch_data() )
That way, we could use the following inference from the PCSROffset value :
0000 - Sample offset applies based on the instruction state (indicated by PCSR[0])
0001 - No offset applies.
0010 - No offset applies, but do not use in AArch32 mode

you point me to it.

If this fails (say the CPU was offline), should we still return success ?
And may be we should check if the drvdata->edpcsr_present to detect if the CPU
implements the PC Sampling and return failure here if it doesn't.

This could simply be :
dev_info(dev, "Coresight debug-CPU%d initialized\n", drvdata->cpu);
and get rid of the static string and the buffer, see below.

I think this is pointless, as the debug area we are interested in is always associated
with a CPU, we could as well figure out what to print from the drvdata->cpu above.
