ARM: perf: Add support for Scorpion PMUs
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Scorpion supports a set of local performance monitor event
selection registers (LPM) sitting behind a cp15 based interface
that extend the architected PMU events to include Scorpion CPU
and Venum VFP specific events. To use these events the user is
expected to program the lpm register with the event code shifted
into the group they care about and then point the PMNx event at
that region+group combo by writing a LPMn_GROUPx event. Add
support for this hardware.

Note: the raw event number is a pure software construct that
allows us to map the multi-dimensional number space of regions,
groups, and event codes into a flat event number space suitable
for use by the perf framework.

This is based on code originally written by Sheetal Sahasrabudhe,
Ashwin Chaugule, and Neil Leeder [1].
