Nice to see there's a user space tool - it's always good to signpost
such things because it shows how the interface is going to be used.

I note it also shows that the "panthor_regs.rs" would ideally be shared.
For arm64 we have been moving to generating system register descriptions
from a text source (see arch/arm64/tools/sysreg) - I'm wondering whether
something similar is needed for Panthor to generate both C and Rust
headers? Although perhaps that's overkill, sysregs are certainly
somewhat more complex.

I would think it useful to have a copy of the identification registers
so that it's immediately clear from a dump which GPU it was from, so:

* GPU_ID
* GPU_L2_FEATURES
* GPU_CORE_FEATURES
* GPU_TILER_FEATURES
* GPU_MEM_FEATURES
* GPU_MMU_FEATURES
* GPU_CSF_ID
* GPU_THREAD_MAX_THREAD
* GPU_THREAD_MAX_WORKGROUP_SIZE
* GPU_THREAD_MAX_BARRIER_SIZE
* GPU_TEXTURE_FEATURES (multiple registers)
* GPU_COHERENCY_FEATURES

(Basically the information already presented to user space in struct
drm_panthor_gpu_info)

In terms of the registers you've got:
* _READY_ registers seem like an odd choice, I'd go for the _PRESENT_
registers which describe the hardware. I'll admit it would be
interesting to know if the GPU didn't actually power up all cores, but
because this is a snapshot after the job fails it wouldn't answer the
question as to whether the cores were powered up while the job was
running, so I'm not convinced it makes sense for this interface.

* _INT_MASK/_INT_STAT - again because this is a snapshot after the job
completes, I don't think this would actually be very useful.

* Address space registers - I'm not sure these will actually contain
anything useful by the time the job is dumped. Information on page
faults caused by a job could be interesting, but it might require
another mechanism. As mentioned below AS 0 is the MMU for the firmware,
which should be boring unless firmware is the thing being debugged. But
generally I'd expect a different mechanism for that because firmware
debugging isn't tied to particular jobs.


As Boris says a snapshot of the FW interface could also be interesting.
That's not from registers, so it should be similar to dumping BOs.

It depends whether the stub is "successful" or not. The usual pattern is
that the stubs do nothing because there is nothing to do (the feature is
disabled) and so are successful at performing that nothing.

Although really here the problem is that we shouldn't be preparing the
dump arguments if dumping isn't built in. So the stub is at the wrong
level - it would be better to stub dump_job() instead.

Yes that could be very useful for debugging purposes - although I
believe devcoredump will drop new dumps if there's already an unread one
- so I'm not sure "N successful jobs" will work well, it might just have
to be a (self-resetting) flag for "dump next job".

It's useful to know (it means there's no point reviewing every line). I
think we need some way of avoiding multiple places to maintain the
register list - a script to covert from C would be one way, but
obviously the script then needs to be available too.

A separate patch adding to the kernel crate is the right way to go. Keep
it in the same series to demonstrate there is a user for the new functions.

In C I'd be handling at least the allocation failures and returning
errors up the stack - most likely with some sort of WARN_ON() or similar
(because these are 'should never happen' programming bugs - but trivial
to recover from).

For the try_from(size).unwrap() type cases, I've no idea to be honest -
Ideally they would be compile time checks. I've very little clue about
Rust but on the surface it looks like you've got the wrong type because
it's checking that things don't overflow when changing type. Of course
the standard C approach is to just do the type conversion and pretend
you're sure that an overflow can never happen ;)

In particular for alloc<T>() - core::mem::size_of::<T>() is returning a
value (of type usize) which is then being converted to isize. A C
programmer wouldn't have any qualms about assigning a sizeof() into an
int, even though theorectically that could overflow if the structure was
massive. But this should really be a compile time check as it's clearly
dead code at runtime.
