How often is that happening ?
I have been running this in a loop with varying sleep duration for
the last few hours without hitting it, with and without memtester.
REPEATS=1000
MAX_DURATION=100
OUT="/tmp/perf-dfi-rk3588-${REPEATS}x${MAX_DURATION}s.txt"
echo -n > $OUT
for i in $(seq $REPEATS) ; do
DURATION=$(shuf -i "0-${MAX_DURATION}" -n 1)
echo -n "${DURATION} : " >> $OUT
perf stat -a -e rockchip_ddr/cycles/ sleep $DURATION 2>&1 | awk
'/rockchip_ddr/ {printf("%X\n", int($1))}' >> $OUT
done
BTW, it's on a musl-libc arm64 void linux userspace.
