Marvell Odyssey DDR PMU Performance Monitoring Unit (PMU UNCORE)

Odyssey DRAM Subsystem supports eight counters for monitoring performance and software can program those counters to monitor any of the defined performance events. Supported performance events include those counted at the interface between the DDR controller and the PHY, interface between the DDR Controller and the CHI interconnect, or within the DDR Controller.

Additionally DSS also supports two fixed performance event counters, one for ddr reads and the other for ddr writes.

The counter will be operating in either manual or auto mode.

The PMU driver exposes the available events and format options under sysfs:

/sys/bus/event_source/devices/mrvl_ddr_pmu_<>/events/
/sys/bus/event_source/devices/mrvl_ddr_pmu_<>/format/

Examples:
