Coresight - HW Assisted Tracing on ARM
======================================
Author: Mathieu Poirier <mathieu.poirier@linaro.org>
Date: September 11th, 2014
Introduction
------------
Coresight is an umbrella of technologies allowing for the debugging of ARM
based SoC. It includes solutions for JTAG and HW assisted tracing. This
document is concerned with the latter.
HW assisted tracing is becoming increasingly useful when dealing with systems
that have many SoCs and other components like GPU and DMA engines. ARM has
developed a HW assisted tracing solution by means of different components, each
being added to a design at systhesis time to cater to specific tracing needs.
Compoments are generally categorised as source, link and sinks and are
(usually) discovered using the AMBA bus.
"Sources" generate a compressed stream representing the processor instruction
path based on tracing scenarios as configured by users. From there the stream
flows through the coresight system (via ATB bus) using links that are connecting
the emanating source to a sink(s). Sinks serve as endpoints to the coresight
implementation, either storing the compressed stream in a memory buffer or
creating an interface to the outside world where data can be transferred to a
host without fear of filling up the onboard coresight memory buffer.
At typical coresight system would look like this:

While on target configuration of the components is done via the ABP bus,
all trace data are carried out-of-band on the ATB bus. The CTM provides
a way to aggregate and distribute signals between CoreSight components.
The coresight framework provides a central point to represent, configure and
manage coresight devices on a platform. This first implementation centers on
the basic tracing functionality, enabling components such ETM/PTM, funnel,
replicator, TMC, TPIU and ETB. Future work will enable more
intricate IP blocks such as STM and CTI.

As of this writing drivers for ITM, STMs and CTIs are not provided but are
expected to be added as the solution matures.
Framework and implementation
----------------------------
The coresight framework provides a central point to represent, configure and
manage coresight devices on a platform. Any coresight compliant device can
register with the framework for as long as they use the right APIs:
struct coresight_device *coresight_register(struct coresight_desc *desc);
void coresight_unregister(struct coresight_device *csdev);
The registering function is taking a "struct coresight_device *csdev" and
register the device with the core framework. The unregister function takes
a reference to a "strut coresight_device", obtained at registration time.
If everything goes well during the registration process the new devices will
show up under /sys/bus/coresight/devices, as showns here for a TC2 platform:
root:~# ls /sys/bus/coresight/devices/
replicator 20030000.tpiu 2201c000.ptm 2203c000.etm 2203e000.etm
20010000.etb 20040000.funnel 2201d000.ptm 2203d000.etm
root:~#
The functions take a "struct coresight_device", which looks like this:
struct coresight_desc {
enum coresight_dev_type type;
struct coresight_dev_subtype subtype;
const struct coresight_ops *ops;
struct coresight_platform_data *pdata;
struct device *dev;
const struct attribute_group **groups;
};
The "coresight_dev_type" identifies what the device is, i.e, source link or
sink while the "coresight_dev_subtype" will characterise that type further.
The "struct coresight_ops" is mandatory and will tell the framework how to
perform base operations related to the components, each component having
a different set of requirement. For that "struct coresight_ops_sink",
"struct coresight_ops_link" and "struct coresight_ops_source" have been
provided.
The next field, "struct coresight_platform_data *pdata" is acquired by calling
"of_get_coresight_platform_data()", as part of the driver's _probe routine and
"struct device *dev" gets the device reference embedded in the "amba_device":
static int etm_probe(struct amba_device *adev, const struct amba_id *id)
{
...
...
drvdata->dev = &adev->dev;
...
}
Specific class of device (source, link, or sink) have generic operations
that can be performed on them (see "struct coresight_ops"). The
"**groups" is a list of sysfs entries pertaining to operations
specific to that component only. "Implementation defined" customisations are
expected to be accessed and controlled using those entries.
Last but not least, "struct module *owner" is expected to be set to reflect
the information carried in "THIS_MODULE".
How to use
----------
Before trace collection can start, a coresight sink needs to be identify.
There is no limit on the amount of sinks (nor sources) that can be enabled at
any given moment. As a generic operation, all device pertaining to the sink
class will have an "active" entry in sysfs:
root:/sys/bus/coresight/devices# ls
replicator 20030000.tpiu 2201c000.ptm 2203c000.etm 2203e000.etm
20010000.etb 20040000.funnel 2201d000.ptm 2203d000.etm
root:/sys/bus/coresight/devices# ls 20010000.etb
enable_sink status trigger_cntr
root:/sys/bus/coresight/devices# echo 1 > 20010000.etb/enable_sink
root:/sys/bus/coresight/devices# cat 20010000.etb/enable_sink
1
root:/sys/bus/coresight/devices#
At boot time the current etm3x driver will configure the first address
comparator with "_stext" and "_etext", essentially tracing any instruction
that falls within that range. As such "enabling" a source will immediately
trigger a trace capture:
root:/sys/bus/coresight/devices# echo 1 > 2201c000.ptm/enable_source
root:/sys/bus/coresight/devices# cat 2201c000.ptm/enable_source
1
root:/sys/bus/coresight/devices# cat 20010000.etb/status
Depth: 0x2000
Status: 0x1
RAM read ptr: 0x0
RAM wrt ptr: 0x19d3 <----- The write pointer is moving
Trigger cnt: 0x0
Control: 0x1
Flush status: 0x0
Flush ctrl: 0x2001
root:/sys/bus/coresight/devices#
Trace collection is stopped the same way:
root:/sys/bus/coresight/devices# echo 0 > 2201c000.ptm/enable_source
root:/sys/bus/coresight/devices#
The content of the ETB buffer can be harvested directly from /dev:
root:/sys/bus/coresight/devices# dd if=/dev/20010000.etb \
of=~/cstrace.bin
64+0 records in
64+0 records out
32768 bytes (33 kB) copied, 0.00125258 s, 26.2 MB/s
root:/sys/bus/coresight/devices#
The file cstrace.bin can be decompressed using "ptm2human", DS-5 or Trace32.
Following is a DS-5 output of an experimental loop that increments a variable up
to a certain value. The example is simple and yet provides a glimpse of the
wealth of possibilities that coresight provides.
