I had that once, but it is a little more boiler plate/complex for the
formats to write.

static inline unsigned short
armv7s_pt_contig_count_lg2(const struct pt_state *pts)
{
return ilog2(16);
}
#define pt_contig_count_lg2 armv7s_pt_contig_count_lg2
/* Number contigous entries that ARMV8PT_FMT_CONTIG will join at this level */
static inline unsigned short
armv8pt_contig_count_lg2(const struct pt_state *pts)

if (PT_GRANULE_SIZE == SZ_4K)
return ilog2(16); /* 64KB, 32MB */
else if (PT_GRANULE_SIZE == SZ_16K && pts->level == 1)
return ilog2(32); /* 1GB */

return ilog2(128); /* 2M */

return ilog2(1);

#define pt_contig_count_lg2 armv8pt_contig_count_lg2
And I missed switching riscv, fixed it into:
static inline unsigned short
riscvpt_contig_count_lg2(const struct pt_state *pts)
{
if (pts->level == 0 && pts_feature(pts, PT_FEAT_RSICV_SVNAPOT_64K))
return ilog2(16);
return ilog2(1);
}
#define pt_contig_count_lg2 riscvpt_contig_count_lg2
Thanks,
