We already have definitions for these since v6.5, added in commit:

57596c8f991c9aac ("arm64: Add debug registers affected by HDFGxTR_EL2:)

That commit also added register encoding definitions:

| #define SYS_BRBINF_EL1(n) sys_reg(2, 1, 8, (n & 15), (((n & 16) >> 2) | 0))
| #define SYS_BRBINFINJ_EL1 sys_reg(2, 1, 9, 1, 0)
| #define SYS_BRBSRC_EL1(n) sys_reg(2, 1, 8, (n & 15), (((n & 16) >> 2) | 1))
| #define SYS_BRBSRCINJ_EL1 sys_reg(2, 1, 9, 1, 1)
| #define SYS_BRBTGT_EL1(n) sys_reg(2, 1, 8, (n & 15), (((n & 16) >> 2) | 2))
| #define SYS_BRBTGTINJ_EL1 sys_reg(2, 1, 9, 1, 2)
| #define SYS_BRBTS_EL1 sys_reg(2, 1, 9, 0, 2)

I don't think we need to add new encoding definitions for BRBINF<n>_EL1,
BRBSRC<n>_EL1, or BRBTGT<n>_EL1; we can just use those existing defintions
directly. That also means we don't need to add all of the expanded 0..31
definitions; the driver can use SYS_BRBINF_EL1(n) and friends directly.

Minor nit, but for consistency with DIRECT_LINK, could we please use
DIRECT_UNCOND and DIRECT_COND?

That IMPDEF_TRAP_EL3 encoding doesn't seem to exist in the latest ARM ARM (ARM
DDI 0487J.a), and I see Mark Brown checked against the "Arm A-profile
Architecture Registers" document (ARM DDI 0601 ID121123, AKA 2023-12).

Could you please mention that in the commit message, and link to that version
of the document (https://developer.arm.com/documentation/ddi0601/2023-12/) ?
That'll make it easier for anyone else to review this, and it'll be good in
case anyone needs to figure out where this came from in future.

The other fields here all look good per the ARM ARM and sysreg document.

These all look good per the ARM ARM and sysreg document.

Minor nit, but could we please list thse in order:

BRBCR_EL1
BRBCR_EL12
BRBCR_EL2

.. since that way the names are ordered alphnumerically, which is what we've
done for other groups (e.g. PIR_EL{1,12,2}), and it's the way the ARM ARM
happens to be ordered.

Nit: since this is a 2-bit field, please pad these as '0b00' and '0b01'.

Could we please use BANK_0 and BANK_1 rather than FIRST and SECOND?

That'd also be easier to use behind macros.

Other than the nit, this looks good per the ARM ARM and sysreg document.

This is an 8-bit field; please pad these to 8 bits (they all need a leading
'0').

Aside from the comments above, this looks good to me.

Mark.
