It would be worth pointing out in the commit message how the CCPI2
counters differ from the others. I realise you have that in the body of
patch 1, but it's critical information when reviewing this patch...

Shouldn't this be 8 now?

How about:

/*

 * L3C have 4 32-bit counters, and the CCPI2 has 8 64-bit counters.
 */

This bitmap isn't big enough for the 4 new counters.

As above, can't we bump TX2_PMU_MAX_COUNTERS to 8 rather than making
this a dynamic allocation?

Presumably reg_readq() should return a u64.

Do you mean that bits [11:10] are level and type?

What exactly are 'level' and 'type'?

Can we give those bits mnemonics?

> +			GET_EVENTID(event, emask), hwc->config_base);

Rather than using magic numbers everywhere, please give these mnemonics,
e.g.

#define CCPI2_PERF_CTL_ENABLE	BIT(0)
#define CCPI2_PERF_CTL_START	BIT(1)
#define CCPI2_PERF_CTL_RESET	BIT(4)

> +	reg_writel(0x13, hwc->event_base + CCPI2_PERF_CTL);

... and then you can OR them in here:

	ctl = CCPI2_PERF_CTL_ENABLE |
	      CCPI2_PERF_CTL_START |
	      CCPI2_PERF_CTL_RESET;
	reg_writel(ctl, hwc->event_base + CCPI2_PERF_CTL);

This would be easier to read as two statements:

	/* No hrtimer needed with 64-bit counters */
	if (tx2_pmu->type == PMU_TYPE_CCPI2)
		return;
	
	/* Start timer for first event */
	if (bitmap_weight(tx2_pmu->active_counters,
	    tx2_pmu->max_counters) != 1) {
	    	...
	}

So this is NULL for CCPI2?

I guess we don't strictly need the if we don't have a hrtimer to update
event counts, but this makes the code more complicated than it needs to
be.

Hmmm... this means that tx2_pmu->hrtimer.function is NULL for the CCPI2
PMU. I think it would be best to check that when (re)programming the
counters rather than the PMU type. For example, in
tx2_uncore_event_start() we could have:

	if (!tx2_pmu->hrtimer.function)
		return;
	if (bitmap_weight(tx2_pmu->active_counters,
	    tx2_pmu->max_counters) != 1) {
	    	...
	}

Thanks,
Mark.
