+UltraSoc - HW Assisted Tracing on SoC
+======================================
+ :Author: Qi Liu <liuqi115@huawei.com>
+ :Date: January 2023
+
+Introduction
+------------
+
+UltraSoc SMB is a per SCCL (Super CPU Cluster) hardware. It provides a
+way to buffer and store CPU trace messages in a region of shared system
+memory. The device acts as a coresight sink device and the
+corresponding trace generators (ETM) are attached as source devices.
+
+Sysfs files and directories
+---------------------------
+
+The SMB devices appear on the existing coresight bus alongside other
+devices::
+
+ $# ls /sys/bus/coresight/devices/
+ ultra_smb0 ultra_smb1 ultra_smb2 ultra_smb3
+
+The ``ultra_smb<N>`` names SMB device associated with SCCL.::
+
+ $# ls /sys/bus/coresight/devices/ultra_smb0
+ enable_sink mgmt
+ $# ls /sys/bus/coresight/devices/ultra_smb0/mgmt
+ buf_size buf_status read_pos write_pos
+
+Key file items are:
+
+ * ``read_pos``: Shows the value on the read pointer register.
+ * ``write_pos``: Shows the value on the write pointer register.
+ * ``buf_status``: Shows the value on the status register.
+ BIT(0) is zero value which means the buffer is empty.
+ * ``buf_size``: Shows the buffer size of each device.
+
+Firmware Bindings
+-----------------
+
+The device is only supported with ACPI. Its binding describes device
+identifier, resource information and graph structure.
+
+The device is identified as ACPI HID "HISI03A1". Device resources are allocated
+using the _CRS method. Each device must present two base address; the first one
+is the configuration base address of the device, the second one is the 32-bit
+base address of shared system memory.
+
+Example::
+
+ Device(USMB) { \
+ Name(_HID, "HISI03A1") \
+ Name(_CRS, ResourceTemplate() { \
+ QWordMemory (ResourceConsumer, , MinFixed, MaxFixed, NonCacheable, \
+ ReadWrite, 0x0, 0x95100000, 0x951FFFFF, 0x0, 0x100000) \
+ QWordMemory (ResourceConsumer, , MinFixed, MaxFixed, Cacheable, \
+ ReadWrite, 0x0, 0x50000000, 0x53FFFFFF, 0x0, 0x4000000) \
+ }) \
+ Name(_DSD, Package() { \
+ ToUUID("ab02a46b-74c7-45a2-bd68-f7d344ef2153"), \
+ /* Use CoreSight Graph ACPI bindings to describe connections topology */
+ Package() { \
+ 0, \
+ 1, \
+ Package() { \

+ ToUUID("3ecbc8b6-1d0e-4fb3-8107-e627f805c6cd"), \
