The DDR Perf for i.MX8 is a system PMU whose axi id would different from
SoC to SoC. Need expose system PMU identifier for userspace which refer
to /sys/bus/event_source/devices/<PMU DEVICE>/identifier.

Why not just expose the AXI ID if that's what's different?

You need to keep the old one for compatibility.

Why do we need yet another way to identify the SoC from userspace?

Hi Rob,

Each master has their own AXI ID, such as USB, GPU, VPU etc, it is various from different SoCs. We want to add system PMU support in perf tool, so we want to expose something from perf driver to identify each SoC.
When we know which SoC it is, we can get each master AXI ID. If this patch can be accepted, /sys/bus/event_source/devices/<PMU DEVICE>/identifier could be a common interface for all system PMUs.

I will change to add a property to identify SoC, to see if it is better. Thanks.

I also really dislike this. What's the preferred way to identify the SoC
from userspace? It's needed so that the perf userspace tool can describe
perf events that are supported for the PMU, as this isn't probe-able
directly from the hardware. We have the same issue with the SMMUv3 PMCG [1],
and so we need to solve the problem for both DT and ACPI.

Isn't that what you have already with this patch? My point is you can
already read /proc/device-tree/compatible, read the PMU compatible, or
have an SoC device which exposes SoC info.

/proc/cpuinfo? ;)

For an non-firmware specific case, I'd say soc_device should be. I'd
guess ACPI systems don't use it and for them it's dmidecode typically.
The other problem I have with soc_device is it is optional.

At a minimum, it seems like 'identifier' should be moved into the perf
core if that's an attr we want to keep.

John -- what do you think about using soc_device to expose this information,
with ACPI systems using DMI data instead?

Worth noting that while in this case it happens to identify the SoC,
in general you can have distinct instances of system IP in a single
system, so I do think that we need *something* instance-specific, even
if that's combined with SoC info.

Where IP gets reused across SoCs, it makes sense for that to not depend
on top-level SoC info.

Thanks,
Mark.

Hi Will,

> with ACPI systems using DMI data instead?

Generally I don't think that DMI is reliable, and I saw this as the 
least preferred choice. I'm looking at the sysfs DMI info for my dev 
board, and I don't even see anything like a SoC identifier.

As for the event_source device sysfs identifier file, it would not 
always contain effectively the same as the SoC ID.

Certain PMUs which I'm interested in plan to have probe-able 
identification info available in future.

Thanks,
John

Hi Mark,

This would be quite an uncommon case. Generally most instances of a 
given PMU in a SoC would be identical implementations.

And anyway, we should be able to solve that problem in perf tool, as 
long as the PMU device name is fixed. Like what we have for the SMMUv3 
PMU, where the device name contains the device bus address, i.e don't 
use idr for perf drivers device naming....

BTW, Shaokun now tells me that the HiSi uncore PMU HW have such 
registers to identify the implementation. I didn't know.

So we could add that identifier file for those PMUs as proof-of-concept, 
exposing that register.

As for other PMUs which I'm interested in, again, future versions should 
have such registers to self-identify.

So using something derived from the DT compat string would hopefully be 
the uncommon case.

Cheers,
John

Right, we have this register which shows the PMU version.

Thanks,
