![]() This change makes AMU auxiliary counters configurable on a per-core basis, controlled by `ENABLE_AMU_AUXILIARY_COUNTERS`. Auxiliary counters can be described via the `HW_CONFIG` device tree if the `ENABLE_AMU_FCONF` build option is enabled, or the platform must otherwise implement the `plat_amu_topology` function. A new phandle property for `cpu` nodes (`amu`) has been introduced to the `HW_CONFIG` specification to allow CPUs to describe the view of their own AMU: ``` cpu0: cpu@0 { ... amu = <&cpu0_amu>; }; ``` Multiple cores may share an `amu` handle if they implement the same set of auxiliary counters. AMU counters are described for one or more AMUs through the use of a new `amus` node: ``` amus { cpu0_amu: amu-0 { #address-cells = <1>; #size-cells = <0>; counter@0 { reg = <0>; enable-at-el3; }; counter@n { reg = <n>; ... }; }; }; ``` This structure describes the **auxiliary** (group 1) AMU counters. Architected counters have architecturally-defined behaviour, and as such do not require DTB entries. These `counter` nodes support two properties: - The `reg` property represents the counter register index. - The presence of the `enable-at-el3` property determines whether the firmware should enable the counter prior to exiting EL3.
