perf: Add driver for Arm NI-700 interconnect PMU

The Arm NI-700 Network-on-Chip Interconnect has a relatively
straightforward design with a hierarchy of voltage, power, and clock
domains, where each clock domain then contains a number of interface
units and a PMU which can monitor events thereon. As such, it begets a
relatively straightforward driver to interface those PMUs with perf.

Even more so than with arm-cmn, users will require detailed knowledge of
the wider system topology in order to meaningfully analyse anything,
since the interconnect itself cannot know what lies beyond the boundary
of each inscrutably-numbered interface. Given that, for now they are
also expected to refer to the NI-700 documentation for the relevant
event IDs to provide as well. An identifier is implemented so we can
come back and add jevents if anyone really wants to.

perf: starfive: fix 64-bit only COMPILE_TEST condition

ARCH_STARFIVE is not restricted to 64-bit platforms, so while Will's
addition of a 64-bit only condition satisfied the build robots doing
COMPILE_TEST builds, Palmer ran into the same problems with writeq()
being undefined during regular rv32 builds.

Promote the dependency on 64-bit to its own `depends on` so that the
driver can never be included in 32-bit builds.

drivers/perf: add DesignWare PCIe PMU driver

This commit adds the PCIe Performance Monitoring Unit (PMU) driver support
for T-Head Yitian SoC chip. Yitian is based on the Synopsys PCI Express
Core controller IP which provides statistics feature. The PMU is a PCIe
configuration space register block provided by each PCIe Root Port in a
Vendor-Specific Extended Capability named RAS D.E.S (Debug, Error
injection, and Statistics).

To facilitate collection of statistics the controller provides the
following two features for each Root Port:

- one 64-bit counter for Time Based Analysis (RX/TX data throughput and
time spent in each low-power LTSSM state) and
- one 32-bit counter for Event Counting (error and non-error events for
a specified lane)

Note: There is no interrupt for counter overflow.

This driver adds PMU devices for each PCIe Root Port. And the PMU device is
named based the BDF of Root Port. For example,

30:03.0 PCI bridge: Device 1ded:8000 (rev 01)

the PMU device name for this Root Port is dwc_rootport_3018.

Example usage of counting PCIe RX TLP data payload (Units of bytes)::

$# perf stat -a -e dwc_rootport_3018/Rx_PCIe_TLP_Data_Payload/

average RX bandwidth can be calculated like this:

PCIe TX Bandwidth = Rx_PCIe_TLP_Data_Payload / Measure_Time_Window

CXL rev 3.0 introduces a standard performance monitoring hardware
block to CXL. Instances are discovered using CXL Register Locator DVSEC
entries. Each CXL component may have multiple PMUs.

This initial driver supports a subset of types of counter.
It supports counters that are either fixed or configurable, but requires
that they support the ability to freeze and write value whilst frozen.

Development done with QEMU model which will be posted shortly.

Example:

$ perf stat -a -e cxl_pmu_mem0.0/h2d_req_snpcur/ -e cxl_pmu_mem0.0/h2d_req_snpdata/ -e cxl_pmu_mem0.0/clock_ticks/ sleep 1

drivers/perf: imx_ddr: Add support for NXP i.MX9 SoC DDRC PMU driver

Add ddr performance monitor support for i.MX93.

There are 11 counters for ddr performance events.
- Counter 0 is a 64-bit counter that counts only clock cycles.
- Counter 1-10 are 32-bit counters that can monitor counter-specific
events in addition to counting reference events.

For example:
perf stat -a -e imx9_ddr0/ddrc_pm_1,counter=1/,imx9_ddr0/ddrc_pm_2,counter=2/ ls

Besides, this ddr pmu support AXI filter capability. It's implemented as
counter-specific events. It now supports read transaction, write transaction
and read beat events which corresponding respecitively to counter 2, 3 and 4.
axi_mask and axi_id need to be as event parameters.

For example:
perf stat -a -I 1000 -e imx9_ddr0/eddrtq_pm_rd_trans_filt,counter=2,axi_mask=ID_MASK,axi_id=ID/
perf stat -a -I 1000 -e imx9_ddr0/eddrtq_pm_wr_trans_filt,counter=3,axi_mask=ID_MASK,axi_id=ID/

drivers/perf: add DDR Sub-System Driveway PMU driver for Yitian 710 SoC

Add the DDR Sub-System Driveway Performance Monitoring Unit (PMU) driver
support for Alibaba T-Head Yitian 710 SoC chip. Yitian supports DDR5/4
DRAM and targets cloud computing and HPC.

Each PMU is registered as a device in /sys/bus/event_source/devices, and
users can select event to monitor in each sub-channel, independently. For
example, ali_drw_21000 and ali_drw_21080 are two PMU devices for two
sub-channels of the same channel in die 0. And the PMU device of die 1 is
prefixed with ali_drw_400XXXXX, e.g. ali_drw_40021000.

Due to hardware limitation, one of DDRSS Driveway PMU overflow interrupt
shares the same irq number with MPAM ERR_IRQ. To register DDRSS PMU and
MPAM drivers successfully, add IRQF_SHARED flag.

RISC-V: Add a simple platform driver for RISC-V legacy perf

The old RISC-V perf implementation allowed counting of only
cycle/instruction counters using perf. Restore that feature by implementing
a simple platform driver under a separate config to provide backward
compatibility. Any existing software stack will continue to work as it is.
However, it provides an easy way out in future where we can remove the
legacy driver.

RISC-V: Add a perf core library for pmu drivers

Implement a perf core library that can support all the essential perf
features in future. It can also accommodate any type of PMU implementation
in future. Currently, both SBI based perf driver and legacy driver
implemented uses the library. Most of the common perf functionalities
are kept in this core library wile PMU specific driver can implement PMU
specific features. For example, the SBI specific functionality will be
implemented in the SBI specific driver.

drivers/perf: Add Apple icestorm/firestorm CPU PMU driver

Add a new, weird and wonderful driver for the equally weird Apple
PMU HW. Although the PMU itself is functional, we don't know much
about the events yet, so this can be considered as yet another
random number generator...

Nonetheless, it can reliably count at least cycles and instructions
in the usually wonky big-little way. For anything else, it of course
supports raw event numbers.

The Marvell CN10K Last-Level cache Tag-and-data Units (LLC-TAD)
performance monitor is only present on Marvell CN10K SoCs. Hence add a
dependency on ARCH_THUNDER, to prevent asking the user about this driver
when configuring a kernel without Cavium Thunder (incl. Marvell CN10K)
SoC support.

drivers: perf: Add LLC-TAD perf counter support

This driver adds support for Last-level cache tag-and-data unit
(LLC-TAD) PMU that is featured in some of the Marvell's CN10K
infrastructure silicons.

The LLC is divided into 2N slices distributed across N Mesh tiles
in a single-socket configuration. The driver always configures the
same counter for all of the TADs. The user would end up effectively
reserving one of eight counters in every TAD to look across all TADs.
The occurrences of events are aggregated and presented to the user
at the end of an application run. The driver does not provide a way
for the user to partition TADs so that different TADs are used for
different applications.

The event counters are zeroed to start event counting to avoid any
rollover issues. TAD perf counters are 64-bit, so it's not currently
possible to overflow event counters at current mesh and core
frequencies.

To measure tad pmu events use perf tool stat command. For instance:

perf stat -e tad_dat_msh_in_dss,tad_req_msh_out_any <application>
perf stat -e tad_alloc_any,tad_hit_any,tad_tag_rd <application>
