Bug#1014743: Please can CONFIG_CORESIGHT_TRBE be enabled in the arm64 kernel?



Package: src:linux
Version: 5.18.8-1

Hello,
An Armv9 architectural feature, Trace Buffer Extension (FEAT_TRBE), is making its way into upcoming CPU cores. TRBE can be found described in [1] and [2].

Support for this is already in the kernel (with some erratum fixes landing in 5.18), I was going to ask if it can please be enabled with the following Kconfig options?

CONFIG_CORESIGHT=m
CONFIG_CORESIGHT_SOURCE_ETM4X=m
CONFIG_CORESIGHT_TRBE=m

This would be to allow Neoverse-N2 parts (and others) to leverage this feature when running on Debian Bookworm.

Cheers!
