Pull performance event updates from Ingo Molnar:
"x86 PMU driver updates:
- Add support for the core PMU for Intel Diamond Rapids (DMR) CPUs
(Dapeng Mi)
Compared to previous iterations of the Intel PMU code, there's been
a lot of changes, which center around three main areas:
- Introduce the OFF-MODULE RESPONSE (OMR) facility to replace the
Off-Core Response (OCR) facility
- New PEBS data source encoding layout
- Support the new "RDPMC user disable" feature
- Likewise, a large series adds uncore PMU support for Intel Diamond
Rapids (DMR) CPUs (Zide Chen)
This centers around these four main areas:
- DMR may have two Integrated I/O and Memory Hub (IMH) dies,
separate from the compute tile (CBB) dies. Each CBB and each IMH
die has its own discovery domain.
- Unlike prior CPUs that retrieve the global discovery table
portal exclusively via PCI or MSR, DMR uses PCI for IMH PMON
discovery and MSR for CBB PMON discovery.
- DMR introduces several new PMON types: SCA, HAMVF, D2D_ULA, UBR,
PCIE4, CRS, CPC, ITC, OTC, CMS, and PCIE6.
- IIO free-running counters in DMR are MMIO-based, unlike SPR.
- Also add support for Add missing PMON units for Intel Panther Lake,
and support Nova Lake (NVL), which largely maps to Panther Lake.
(Zide Chen)
- KVM integration: Add support for mediated vPMUs (by Kan Liang and
Sean Christopherson, with fixes and cleanups by Peter Zijlstra,
Sandipan Das and Mingwei Zhang)
- Add Intel cstate driver to support for Wildcat Lake (WCL) CPUs,
which are a low-power variant of Panther Lake (Zide Chen)
- Add core, cstate and MSR PMU support for the Airmont NP Intel CPU
(aka MaxLinear Lightning Mountain), which maps to the existing
Airmont code (Martin Schiller)
Performance enhancements:
- Speed up kexec shutdown by avoiding unnecessary cross CPU calls
(Jan H. Schönherr)
- Fix slow perf_event_task_exit() with LBR callstacks (Namhyung Kim)
User-space stack unwinding support:
- Various cleanups and refactorings in preparation to generalize the
unwinding code for other architectures (Jens Remus)
Uprobes updates:
- Transition from kmap_atomic to kmap_local_page (Keke Ming)
- Fix incorrect lockdep condition in filter_chain() (Breno Leitao)
- Fix XOL allocation failure for 32-bit tasks (Oleg Nesterov)
Misc fixes and cleanups:
- s390: Remove kvm_types.h from Kbuild (Randy Dunlap)
- x86/intel/uncore: Convert comma to semicolon (Chen Ni)
- x86/uncore: Clean up const mismatch (Greg Kroah-Hartman)
- x86/ibs: Fix typo in dc_l2tlb_miss comment (Xiang-Bin Shi)"
