Subject: perf: tools: cs-etm: Fix print issue for Coresight debug in ETE/TRBE trace
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=6c478e7b3eba3f387a2d6c749e3e3ee0f8ad1c53;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Flinux.git

perf: tools: cs-etm: Fix print issue for Coresight debug in ETE/TRBE trace

Building perf with CORESIGHT=1 and the optional CSTRACE_RAW=1 enables
additional debug printing of raw trace data when using command:-
perf report --dump.

This raw trace prints the CoreSight formatted trace frames, which may be
used to investigate suspected issues with trace quality / corruption /
decode.

These frames are not present in ETE + TRBE trace.
This fix removes the unnecessary call to print these frames.

This fix also rationalises implementation - original code had helper
function that unnecessarily repeated initialisation calls that had
already been made.

Due to an addtional fault with the OpenCSD library, this call when ETE/TRBE
are being decoded will cause a segfault in perf. This fix also prevents
that problem for perf using older (<= 1.8.0 version) OpenCSD libraries.

Fixes: 68ffe3902898 ("perf tools: Add decoder mechanic to support dumping trace data")
