As ARM AMU's document says, all counters are subject to any changes
in clock frequency, including clock stopping caused by the WFI and WFE
instructions.

Therefore, using smp_call_on_cpu() to trigger target CPU to
read self's AMU counters, which ensures the counters are working
properly while cstate feature is enabled.

IIUC there's a pretty deliberate split with all the actual reading of the AMU
living in arch/arm64/kernel/topolgy.c, and the driver code being (relatively)
generic.

We already have code in arch/arm64/kernel/topolgy.c to read counters on a
specific CPU; why can't e reuse that (and avoid exporting cpu_has_amu_feat())?


This patch seems mostly based on my previous patch [1] and discussed here [2] already. Beata [CCed] shared an alternate approach [3] leveraging existing code from 'topology.c' to get the average freq for last tick period.


Beata,

Could you share v2 of [3] with the request to merge. We can try to solve the issue with CPU IDLE case later on top?

Additionally, also please include the fix in [4] if it looks fine.

Best Regards,
Sumit Gupta
