| * ARM Performance Monitor Units |
| |
| ARM cores often have a PMU for counting cpu and cache events like cache misses |
| and hits. The interface to the PMU is part of the ARM ARM. The ARM PMU |
| representation in the device tree should be done as under:- |
| |
| Required properties: |
| |
| - compatible : should be one of |
| "arm,armv8-pmuv3" |
| "arm,cortex-a15-pmu" |
| "arm,cortex-a12-pmu" |
| "arm,cortex-a9-pmu" |
| "arm,cortex-a8-pmu" |
| "arm,cortex-a7-pmu" |
| "arm,cortex-a5-pmu" |
| "arm,arm11mpcore-pmu" |
| "arm,arm1176-pmu" |
| "arm,arm1136-pmu" |
| "qcom,krait-pmu" |
| - interrupts : 1 combined interrupt or 1 per core. If the interrupt is a per-cpu |
| interrupt (PPI) then 1 interrupt should be specified. |
| |
| Optional properties: |
| |
| - qcom,no-pc-write : Indicates that this PMU doesn't support the 0xc and 0xd |
| events. |
| |
| Example: |
| |
| pmu { |
| compatible = "arm,cortex-a9-pmu"; |
| interrupts = <100 101>; |
| }; |
