+* CoreSight CPU Debug Component:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+CoreSight CPU debug component are compliant with the ARMv8 architecture
|
|
|
+reference manual (ARM DDI 0487A.k) Chapter 'Part H: External debug'. The
|
|
|
+external debug module is mainly used for two modes: self-hosted debug and
|
|
|
+external debug, and it can be accessed from mmio region from Coresight
|
|
|
+and eventually the debug module connects with CPU for debugging. And the
|
|
|
+debug module provides sample-based profiling extension, which can be used
|
|
|
+to sample CPU program counter, secure state and exception level, etc;
|
|
|
+usually every CPU has one dedicated debug module to be connected.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Required properties:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+- compatible : should be "arm,coresight-cpu-debug"; supplemented with
|
|
|
+ "arm,primecell" since this driver is using the AMBA bus
|
|
|
+ interface.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+- reg : physical base address and length of the register set.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+- clocks : the clock associated to this component.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+- clock-names : the name of the clock referenced by the code. Since we are
|
|
|
+ using the AMBA framework, the name of the clock providing
|
|
|
+ the interconnect should be "apb_pclk" and the clock is
|
|
|
+ mandatory. The interface between the debug logic and the
|
|
|
+ processor core is clocked by the internal CPU clock, so it
|
|
|
+ is enabled with CPU clock by default.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+- cpu : the CPU phandle the debug module is affined to. When omitted
|
|
|
+ the module is considered to belong to CPU0.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Optional properties:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+- power-domains: a phandle to the debug power domain. We use "power-domains"
|
|
|
+ binding to turn on the debug logic if it has own dedicated
|
|
|
+ power domain and if necessary to use "cpuidle.off=1" or
|
|
|
+ "nohlt" in the kernel command line or sysfs node to
|
|
|
+ constrain idle states to ensure registers in the CPU power
|
|
|
+ domain are accessible.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Example:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ debug@f6590000 {
|
|
|
+ compatible = "arm,coresight-cpu-debug","arm,primecell";
|
|
|
+ reg = <0 0xf6590000 0 0x1000>;
|
|
|
+ clocks = <&sys_ctrl HI6220_DAPB_CLK>;
|
|
|
+ clock-names = "apb_pclk";
|
|
|
+ cpu = <&cpu0>;
|
|
|
+ };
