Subject: [PATCH 2/2] coresight: etm3x: fix inconsistencies with sysfs configration
Date: Tue, 17 Mar 2026 18:17:05 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260317181705.2456271-3-yeoreum.yun@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260317181705.2456271-1-yeoreum.yun@arm.com>

The current ETM3x configuration via sysfs can lead to the following
inconsistencies:

- If a configuration is modified via sysfs while a perf session is
  active, the running configuration may differ between before
  a sched-out and after a subsequent sched-in.

To resolve these inconsistencies, the configuration should be separated into:

  - active_config, which represents the currently applied configuration
  - config, which stores the settings configured via sysfs.
