On some Qualcomm Technologies Inc. SoCs like SC7180, there
exists a hardware errata where the APSS (Application Processor
SubSystem)/CPU watchdog counter is stopped when ETM register
TRCPDCR.PU=1.

Fun stuff...


Yes :)

Since the ETMs share the same power domain as
that of respective CPU cores, they are powered on when the
CPU core is powered on. So we can disable powering up of the
trace unit after checking for this errata via new property
called "qcom,tupwr-disable".

Tingwei is the author, so if I understand correctly, his signed-off-by
should appear first, am I wrong?

Please split in two patches.


Sure, I will split the dt-binding into separate patch, checkpatch did warn.

I think something like "qcom,skip-power-up" would be clearer.

Also, a better choice of words is that TRCPDCR.PU does not have to be set on
Qualcomm...


Yes "qcom,skip-power-up" is a lot better, thanks. Also will use something as
you suggested for description.

Please call fwnode_property_present() at initialisation time to set a new
drvdata::skip_power_up variable.  From there just switch on that in
etm4_enable/disable_hw().


Will do, thanks.

Thanks,
Sai
