Subject: [PATCH 10/25] coresight: trbe: Pad snapshot buffers
Date: Tue, 15 Sep 2026 16:48:56 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260915-arm_cs_support_aux_sample-v1-10-35cf6f297d20@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260915-arm_cs_support_aux_sample-v1-0-35cf6f297d20@arm.com>
Snapshot buffers use the head as the write pointer without checking its
alignment or the space remaining before the limit. After a stop or a
move to another CPU, the head can be misaligned for the current TRBE.
It can also leave too little space for the Fill mode out-of-range
workaround.
Pad the head to the current CPU's alignment. If the remaining buffer
cannot hold the minimum trace region, pad to the end of buffer. Update
the head for setting next write pointer.
Fixes: 3fbf7f011f24 ("coresight: sink: Add TRBE driver")
