[PATCH v2 1/1] ARM: dts: microchip: sama7d65: add Cortex-A7 PMU node
From: Mihai Sain
Date: Tue Mar 24 2026 - 03:27:43 EST
Add the Performance Monitoring Unit (PMU) node with the appropriate
compatible string and interrupt line so that perf and other
PMU-based tooling can function correctly on this SoC.
[root@SAMA7D65 ~]$ dmesg | grep -i pmu
[ 1.487869] hw-perfevents: enabled with armv7_cortex_a7 PMU driver, 5 (8000000f) counters available
[root@SAMA7D65 ~]$ perf list hw
List of pre-defined events (to be used in -e or -M):
branch-instructions OR branches [Hardware event]
branch-misses [Hardware event]
bus-cycles [Hardware event]
cache-misses [Hardware event]
cache-references [Hardware event]
cpu-cycles OR cycles [Hardware event]
instructions [Hardware event]
