Subject: [PATCH v2 00/29] arm_mpam: Add basic mpam driver

Hello,

The major changes since v1 are:
 * DT got ripped out - see below.
 * The mon_sel locking was simplified - but that will come back.
 
 Otherwise the myriad of changes are noted on each patch.
 
~

This is just enough MPAM driver for ACPI. DT got ripped out. If you need DT
support - please share your DTS so the DT folk know the binding is what is
needed.
This doesn't contain any of the resctrl code, meaning you can't actually drive it
from user-space yet. Becuase of that, its hidden behind CONFIG_EXPERT.
This will change once the user interface is connected up.

This is the initial group of patches that allows the resctrl code to be built
on top. Including that will increase the number of trees that may need to
coordinate, so breaking it up make sense.

The locking got simplified, but is still strange - this is because of the 'mpam-fb'
firmware interface specification that is still alpha. That thing needs to wait for
an interrupt after every system register write, which significantly impacts the
driver. Some features just won't work, e.g. reading the monitor registers via
perf.

I've not found a platform that can test all the behaviours around the monitors,
so this is where I'd expect the most bugs.

The MPAM spec that describes all the system and MMIO registers can be found here:
https://developer.arm.com/documentation/ddi0598/db/?lang=en
(Ignored the 'RETIRED' warning - that is just arm moving the documentation around.
 This document has the best overview)

The expectation is this will go via the arm64 tree.


This series is based on v6.17-rc4, and can be retrieved from:

The rest of the driver can be found here:
