+/**
+ * @brief This file describes the API used by Gator to collect hardware counters data from a Mali device.
+ */
+
+/* This define is used by the gator kernel module compile to select which DDK
+ * API calling convention to use. If not defined (legacy DDK) gator assumes
+ * version 1. The version to DDK release mapping is:
+ * Version 1 API: DDK versions r1px, r2px
+ * Version 2 API: DDK versions r3px, r4px
+ * Version 3 API: DDK version r5p0 and newer
+ *
+ * API Usage
+ * =========
+ *
+ * 1] Call kbase_gator_hwcnt_init_names() to return the list of short counter
+ * names for the GPU present in this device.
+ *
+ * 2] Create a kbase_gator_hwcnt_info structure and set the counter enables for
+ * the counters you want enabled. The enables can all be set for simplicity in
+ * most use cases, but disabling some will let you minimize bandwidth impact.
+ *
+ * 3] Call kbase_gator_hwcnt_init() using the above structure, to create a
+ * counter context. On successful return the DDK will have populated the
+ * structure with a variety of useful information.
+ *
+ * 4] Call kbase_gator_hwcnt_dump_irq() to queue a non-blocking request for a
+ * counter dump. If this returns a non-zero value the request has been queued,
+ * otherwise the driver has been unable to do so (typically because of another
+ * user of the instrumentation exists concurrently).
+ *
+ * 5] Call kbase_gator_hwcnt_dump_complete() to test whether the previously
+ * requested dump has been succesful. If this returns non-zero the counter dump
+ * has resolved, but the value of *success must also be tested as the dump
+ * may have not been successful. If it returns zero the counter dump was
+ * abandoned due to the device being busy (typically because of another
+ * user of the instrumentation exists concurrently).
+ *
+ * 6] Process the counters stored in the buffer pointed to by ...
+ *
+ * kbase_gator_hwcnt_info->kernel_dump_buffer
+ *
+ * In pseudo code you can find all of the counters via this approach:
+ *
+ *
+ * hwcnt_info # pointer to kbase_gator_hwcnt_info structure
+ * hwcnt_name # pointer to name list
+ *
+ * u32 * hwcnt_data = (u32*)hwcnt_info->kernel_dump_buffer
+ *
+ * # Iterate over each 64-counter block in this GPU configuration
+ * for( i = 0; i < hwcnt_info->nr_hwc_blocks; i++) {
+ * hwc_type type = hwcnt_info->hwc_layout[i];
+ *
+ * # Skip reserved type blocks - they contain no counters at all
+ * if( type == RESERVED_BLOCK ) {
+ * continue;
+ * }
+ *
+ * size_t name_offset = type * 64;
+ * size_t data_offset = i * 64;
+ *
+ * # Iterate over the names of the counters in this block type
+ * for( j = 0; j < 64; j++) {
+ * const char * name = hwcnt_name[name_offset+j];
+ *
+ * # Skip empty name strings - there is no counter here
+ * if( name[0] == '\0' ) {
+ * continue;
+ * }
+ *
+ * u32 data = hwcnt_data[data_offset+j];
+ *
+ * printk( "COUNTER: %s DATA: %u\n", name, data );
+ * }
+ * }
+ *
+ *
+ * Note that in most implementations you typically want to either SUM or
+ * AVERAGE multiple instances of the same counter if, for example, you have
+ * multiple shader cores or multiple L2 caches. The most sensible view for
+ * analysis is to AVERAGE shader core counters, but SUM L2 cache and MMU
+ * counters.
+ *
+ * 7] Goto 4, repeating until you want to stop collecting counters.
+ *
+ * 8] Release the dump resources by calling kbase_gator_hwcnt_term().
+ *
+ * 9] Release the name table resources by calling kbase_gator_hwcnt_term_names().
+ * This function must only be called if init_names() returned a non-NULL value.
