There are various pmu tests that require an isb() between enabling counting and the actual counting. This can lead to count registers reporting less events than expected; the actual enabling happens after some events have happened. For example, some missing isb()'s in the pmu-sw-incr test lead to the following errors on bare-metal: INFO: pmu: pmu-sw-incr: SW_INCR counter #0 has value 4294967280 PASS: pmu: pmu-sw-incr: PWSYNC does not increment if PMCR.E is unset FAIL: pmu: pmu-sw-incr: counter #1 after + 100 SW_INCR FAIL: pmu: pmu-sw-incr: counter #0 after + 100 SW_INCR INFO: pmu: pmu-sw-incr: counter values after 100 SW_INCR #0=82 #1=98 PASS: pmu: pmu-sw-incr: overflow on counter #0 after 100 SW_INCR SUMMARY: 4 tests, 2 unexpected failures Add the missing isb()'s on all failing tests, plus some others that seem required: - after clearing the overflow signal in the IRQ handler to avoid spurious interrupts. - after direct writes to PMSWINC_EL0 for software to read the correct value for PMEVNCTR0_EL0 (from ARM DDI 0487H.a, page D13-5237).
