ARM PMU

PMU单元概览

ARM PMU概要
PMU作为一个扩展功能，是一种非侵入式的调试组件。
对PMU寄存器的访问可以通过CP15协处理器指令和Memory-Mapped地址。

基于PMUv2架构，A7处理器在运行时可以收集关于处理器和内存的各种统计信息。对于处理器来说这些统计信息中的事件非常有用，你可以利用它们来调试或者剖析代码。

更详细内容参考：
《Arm CoreSight Performance Monitoring Unit Architecture》：关于PMU架构介绍，包括寄存器解释、规格、安全等等。

PMU 配置流程

PMU有两个主流版本PMUv2和PMUv3，其中大部分32位ARM的处理器使用的PMUv2，大部分64位ARM的处理器使用的PMUv3。两者的主要区别是读取相关寄存器的汇编命令不一样，PMUv2 寄存器是通过CP15 协处理器和外部APB接口来编程，PMUv3则是可以直接使用寄存器的名字来通过mrs和msr命令来读取。

设置和使用事件计数器
本节概述了在Cortex-A15（Armv7-A）上设置和使用事件计数器所需的步骤。Armv8-A处理器的步骤相似，尽管可能会有一些细微的变化。

您可以选择不激活周期计数器（标记为可选的步骤）。这不会影响事件计数器，因为它们独立于周期计数器。如果不需要读出周期数，则可以关闭计数器，这将减少PMU对系统的性能影响。

（不是必需的）启用PMU用户态访问（即允许在EL0操作PMU相关寄存器），如果你要测的代码是在用户态，那么你必须要把性能监视器用户启用寄存器（PMUSERENR）中的EN，bit [0]设置为1。如果仅在内核态使用（即EL1）则不必设置PMUSERENR寄存器。
启用PMU–在性能监视器控制寄存器（PMCR）中，将E，bit [0]设置为1。配置事件计数器
在性能监视器事件计数器选择寄存器（PMSELR）中，将计数器编号（0-5）写入您要配置的SEL位[4：0]，即选用那个计数器。
在性能监视器事件类型选择寄存器（PMXEVTYPER）中，将事件编号（从event事件列表中，见上表）写入evtCount，bits [7:0]，以便选择计数器正在监视的事件。
启用已配置的事件计数器 -在性能监视器计数启用设置寄存器（PMCNTENSET）中，将Px，bit[x]（其中x对应于要启用的计数器0-5）设置为1。
(可选)启用周期计数器（CCNT） -在性能监视器计数启用设置寄存器（PMCNTENSET）中，将C，bit [31]设置为1。
(可选)重置周期计数器（CCNT） -在性能监视器控制寄存器（PMCR）中，将C，bit [2]设置为1。
重置事件计数器 -在性能监视器控制寄存器（PMCR）中，将P，bit [1]设置为1。
现在配置了计数器，并将在执行继续时监视感兴趣的事件。

(可选)禁用周期计数器（CCNT）-在性能监视器计数启用清除寄存器（PMCNTENCLR）中，将C，bit [31]设置为1。
禁用事件计数器 -在性能监视器计数启用清除寄存器（PMCNTENCLR）中，将Px，bit
[x]（其中x对应于要禁用的计数器0-5）设置为1。读取事件计数器的值
在性能监视器事件计数器选择寄存器（PMSELR）中，将计数器号（0-5）写入到您要读取的SEL位[4：0]。
所选计数器的值存储在性能监视器所选事件计数寄存器（PMXEVCNTR）中。
(可选)读取周期计数器（CCNT）的值-周期计数器的值存储在性能监视器周期计数寄存器（PMCCNTR）中。
