Apart from STM and ETM sources, there will be more sources added to

Add coresight name support for custom names which will be
easy to identify the source.
As we have previously discussed, please don't make this a generic
code change. If your device has a "specifici" name, use that for
allocating in the driver and leave the core code alone.

Hi Suzuki,
Not only for TPDMs. There could be dozens of CTI devices.
It is hard for user to know which CTI device it is with current
names.
Thanks

The coresight name support is applicable to CTI and TPDM devices.
This is a generic change for the source which has dozens of devices.
I took a look at the CTI situation and I agree that the situation
is a bit tricky. The CTI could be connected to multiple devices,
some of them may not be even CoreSight devices. Given there could
be numerous of them, we need some way to make the "devices" naming
a bit more intuitive.
Before we go ahead and add something specific to coresight, I would
like to see if there is a generic property. Ideally, the "labels"
in the DTS sources would have been an ideal choice, but can't
see how that is available in the FDT.

Hi Suzuki,
Shall we use the full_name of device_node struct as coresight
component's name ?
struct device_node {
const char *name;
phandle phandle;
* const char *full_name;
*For component below, the full_name will be "coresight-tpdm-ipcc".
*
**coresight-tpdm-ipcc* {
Does that go against the convention of naming the DT nodes ?
I am not sure. Also, we would need a way to solve this for ACPI too.
Suzuki
Hi Suzuki,
Does ACPI device also use "coresight_alloc_device_name" to get the
device's name ?
All driver code is common for both DT & ACPI. The only difference is
the coresight_get_platform_data() which uses DT vs ACPI information
and populates the platform_data. See coresight-platform.c.
