I expect to expand on this in future versions of this patch set. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Cameron --- RFC: - I'll post separately about this shortly, but it seems very odd to me that there is no way to assign a parent to an event_sources device. As a result we get the messy approach of playing match the name to figure out what the CPMU instance is connected to. --- Documentation/admin-guide/perf/cxl.rst | 60 ++++++++++++++++++++++++ Documentation/admin-guide/perf/index.rst | 1 + 2 files changed, 61 insertions(+) diff --git a/Documentation/admin-guide/perf/cxl.rst b/Documentation/admin-guide/perf/cxl.rst new file mode 100644 index 000000000000..6ffc057591fb --- /dev/null +++ b/Documentation/admin-guide/perf/cxl.rst @@ -0,0 +1,60 @@ +====================================== +CXL Performance Monitoring Unit (CPMU) +====================================== + +The CXL rev 3.0 specification provides a definition of CXL Performance +Monitoring Unit in section 13.2: Performance Monitoring. + +CXL components (e.g. Root Port, Switch Upstream Port, End Point) may have +any number of CPMU instances.
