[PATCH v3 0/5] Fix traceNoC probe issue on multiple QCOM platforms

[PATCH v3 0/5] Fix traceNoC probe issue on multiple QCOM platforms

[Jie Gan]

The CoreSight TNOC (Trace Network-On-Chip) binding so far only allowed the
two-string AMBA form "qcom,coresight-tnoc", "arm,primecell". That form
forces the device onto the AMBA bus, where the driver must read the
peripheral ID from the device registers during probe. On several QCOM
platforms this AMBA peripheral-ID probing fails, so the traceNoC device
never probes and its trace path is unavailable.

This series introduces a standalone "qcom,coresight-agtnoc" compatible
that describes the Aggregator TNOC as a plain platform device. Without
"arm,primecell" the device is created on the platform bus and probes
through the platform driver, bypassing the AMBA peripheral-ID read while
remaining a fully functional Aggregator TNOC that allocates a system
trace ID (ATID).

The series is organized as: binding first, then the driver support for the
new compatible, followed by the per-platform DT fixes that switch the
affected nodes over to it.

- Patch 1 (dt-bindings) converts the compatible to a oneOf and adds the
standalone qcom,coresight-agtnoc form alongside the existing AMBA form,
updates the select block, and adds an example node.
- Patch 2 (driver) adds qcom,coresight-agtnoc to the platform driver's
match table and renames the itnoc-specific names to generic tnoc names,
since the platform driver now serves both the Interconnect and Aggregator
TNOC. It also restricts the ATID-unsupported handling to
qcom,coresight-itnoc only, so the standalone Aggregator TNOC is no longer
wrongly covered and correctly allocates a trace ID.
- Patches 3-4 (kaanapali, sm8750) switch the traceNoC nodes from the AMBA
form to the standalone qcom,coresight-agtnoc compatible, fixing the probe
failure on those platforms.
- Patch 5 (glymur) switches the node from qcom,coresight-itnoc to
qcom,coresight-agtnoc. This node is actually an Aggregator TNOC (its
tn_ag_* endpoints show aggregation), so it should expose a system trace
ID rather than being treated as an Interconnect TNOC.

[PATCH v3 1/5] dt-bindings: arm: coresight-tnoc: Add standalone qcom,coresight-agtnoc compatible

[Jie Gan]

The TNOC compatible previously only allowed the two-string AMBA form
"qcom,coresight-tnoc", "arm,primecell", which forces the device onto the
AMBA bus.

Convert the compatible to a oneOf and add a standalone
"qcom,coresight-agtnoc" compatible alongside the existing AMBA form. The
standalone string carries no "arm,primecell" entry, so the device is
created on the platform bus instead of the AMBA bus.

Add "qcom,coresight-agtnoc" to the select block so the schema matches
nodes that use only the standalone compatible, and add an example node
demonstrating the standalone form.

[PATCH v3 2/5] coresight: tnoc: Add AG tnoc standalone compatible to the platform driver

[Jie Gan]

The Aggregator TNOC can be described either as an AMBA device using the
"qcom,coresight-tnoc", "arm,primecell" compatible or as a standalone
platform device using the new "qcom,coresight-agtnoc" compatible. The
latter avoids the AMBA bus and the associated peripheral-ID probing.

Add "qcom,coresight-agtnoc" to the platform driver's match table so the
Aggregator TNOC can probe through the platform driver, and rename the
platform driver and its callbacks from the "itnoc"-specific names to
generic "tnoc" names, since the driver now serves both the Interconnect
and Aggregator TNOC. The platform driver name is updated to
"coresight-tnoc" accordingly.

Restrict the ATID-unsupported handling to the Interconnect TNOC. The
previous check disabled ATID for every non-AMBA device, which would
wrongly cover the standalone Aggregator TNOC. Only "qcom,coresight-itnoc"
lacks aggregation and ATID functionality, so key the check on that
compatible and let every other form allocate a trace ID.

[PATCH v3 5/5] arm64: dts: qcom: glymur: use Aggregator TNOC compatible

[Jie Gan]

The traceNoC node used the "qcom,coresight-itnoc" compatible, which
describes an Interconnect TNOC. That device has no aggregation and no
ATID functionality, so the driver marks its trace ID as unsupported.
This node is actually an Aggregator TNOC, as shown by its tn_ag_*
endpoints, and should expose a system trace ID.

Switch the node to the standalone "qcom,coresight-agtnoc" compatible so
it probes as an Aggregator TNOC and allocates a system trace ID. Rename
the node to "tn" and use the "apb_pclk" clock name as required by the
Aggregator TNOC binding.

This describes OS behavior. Move your message towards the other
compatible not depending on reading that ID register.
