Trace Buffer Extension (TRBE) implements a trace buffer per CPU which is accessible via the system registers. The TRBE supports different addressing modes including CPU virtual address and buffer modes including the circular buffer mode. The TRBE buffer is addressed by a base pointer (TRBBASER_EL1), an write pointer (TRBPTR_EL1) and a limit pointer (TRBLIMITR_EL1). But the access to the trace buffer could be prohibited by a higher exception level (EL3 or EL2), indicated by TRBIDR_EL1.P. The TRBE can also generate a CPU private interrupt (PPI) on address translation errors and when the buffer is full. Overall implementation here is inspired from the Arm SPE driver.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
