+* ARC Performance Monitor Unit
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+The ARC 700 can be configured with a pipeline performance monitor for counting
|
|
|
+CPU and cache events like cache misses and hits.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Note that:
|
|
|
+ * ARC 700 refers to a family of ARC processor cores;
|
|
|
+ - There is only one type of PMU available for the whole family;
|
|
|
+ - The PMU may support different sets of events; supported events are probed
|
|
|
+ at boot time, as required by the reference manual.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ * The ARC 700 PMU does not support interrupts; although HW events may be
|
|
|
+ counted, the HW events themselves cannot serve as a trigger for a sample.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Required properties:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+- compatible : should contain
|
|
|
+ "snps,arc700-pmu"
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Example:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+pmu {
|
|
|
+ compatible = "snps,arc700-pmu";
|
|
|
+};
