git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip 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)" * tag 'perf-core-2026-02-09' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (58 commits) s390: remove kvm_types.h from Kbuild uprobes: Fix incorrect lockdep condition in filter_chain() x86/ibs: Fix typo in dc_l2tlb_miss comment x86/uprobes: Fix XOL allocation failure for 32-bit tasks perf/x86/intel/uncore: Convert comma to semicolon perf/x86/intel: Add support for rdpmc user disable feature perf/x86: Use macros to replace magic numbers in attr_rdpmc perf/x86/intel: Add core PMU support for Novalake perf/x86/intel: Add support for PEBS memory auxiliary info field in NVL perf/x86/intel: Add core PMU support for DMR perf/x86/intel: Add support for PEBS memory auxiliary info field in DMR perf/x86/intel: Support the 4 new OMR MSRs introduced in DMR and NVL perf/core: Fix slow perf_event_task_exit() with LBR callstacks perf/core: Speed up kexec shutdown by avoiding unnecessary cross CPU calls uprobes: use kmap_local_page() for temporary page mappings arm/uprobes: use kmap_local_page() in arch_uprobe_copy_ixol() mips/uprobes: use kmap_local_page() in arch_uprobe_copy_ixol() arm64/uprobes: use kmap_local_page() in arch_uprobe_copy_ixol() riscv/uprobes: use kmap_local_page() in arch_uprobe_copy_ixol() perf/x86/intel/uncore: Add Nova Lake support ...

Also, resources held by evsel->name and evsel->metric_id are freed. But if evsel__new_idx() returns NULL, it can lead to NULL pointer dereference.

2026-01-06perf pmu: Relax uncore wildcard matching to allow numeric suffixZide Chen
Diamond Rapids introduces two types of PCIe related uncore PMUs: "uncore_pcie4_*" and "uncore_pcie6_*". To ensure that generic PCIe events (e.g., UNC_PCIE_CLOCKTICKS) can match and collect events from both PMU types, slightly relax the wildcard matching logic in perf_pmu__match_wildcard(). This change allows a wildcard such as "pcie" to match PMU names that include a numeric suffix, such as "pcie4_*" and "pcie6_*".

2025-12-17perf/x86/core: Register a new vector for handling mediated guest PMIsSean Christopherson
Wire up system vector 0xf5 for handling PMIs (i.e. interrupts delivered through the LVTPC) while running KVM guests with a mediated PMU. Perf currently delivers all PMIs as NMIs, e.g. so that events that trigger while IRQs are disabled aren't delayed and generate useless records, but due to the multiplexing of NMIs throughout the system, correctly identifying NMIs for a mediated PMU is practically infeasible. To (greatly) simplify identifying guest mediated PMU PMIs, perf will switch the CPU's LVTPC between PERF_GUEST_MEDIATED_PMI_VECTOR and NMI when guest PMU context is loaded/put. I.e. PMIs that are generated by the CPU while the guest is active will be identified purely based on the IRQ vector. Route the vector through perf, e.g. as opposed to letting KVM attach a handler directly a la posted interrupt notification vectors, as perf owns the LVTPC and thus is the rightful owner of PERF_GUEST_MEDIATED_PMI_VECTOR. Functionally, having KVM directly own the vector would be fine (both KVM and perf will be completely aware of when a mediated PMU is active), but would lead to an undesirable split in ownership: perf would be responsible for installing the vector, but not handling the resulting IRQs. Add a new perf_guest_info_callbacks hook (and static call) to allow KVM to register its handler with perf when running guests with mediated PMUs. Note, because KVM always runs guests with host IRQs enabled, there is no danger of a PMI being delayed from the guest's perspective due to using a regular IRQ instead of an NMI.

Add sysctl to allow periodic rehashing even if it'd risk packet reordering. - Optimize the NAPI skb cache, make it larger, use it in more paths. - Attempt returning Tx skbs to the originating CPU (like we already did for Rx skbs). - Various data structure layout and prefetch optimizations from Eric. - Remove ktime_get() from the recvmsg() fast path, ktime_get() is sadly quite expensive on recent AMD machines. - Extend threaded NAPI polling to allow the kthread busy poll for packets. - Make MPTCP use Rx backlog processing. This lowers the lock pressure, improving the Rx performance. - Support memcg accounting of MPTCP socket memory. - Allow admin to opt sockets out of global protocol memory accounting (using a sysctl or BPF-based policy). The global limits are a poor fit for modern container workloads, where limits are imposed using cgroups. - Improve heuristics for when to kick off AF_UNIX garbage collection. - Allow users to control TCP SACK compression, and default to 33% of RTT. - Add tcp_rcvbuf_low_rtt sysctl to let datacenter users avoid unnecessarily aggressive rcvbuf growth and overshot when the connection RTT is low. - Preserve skb metadata space across skb_push / skb_pull operations. - Support for IPIP encapsulation in the nftables flowtable offload. - Support appending IP interface information to ICMP messages (RFC 5837). - Support setting max record size in TLS (RFC 8449). - Remove taking rtnl_lock from RTM_GETNEIGHTBL and RTM_SETNEIGHTBL. - Use a dedicated lock (and RCU) in MPLS, instead of rtnl_lock. - Let users configure the number of write buffers in SMC. - Add new struct sockaddr_unsized for sockaddr of unknown length, from Kees. - Some conversions away from the crypto_ahash API, from Eric Biggers. - Some preparations for slimming down struct page. - YAML Netlink protocol spec for WireGuard. - Add a tool on top of YAML Netlink specs/lib for reporting commonly computed derived statistics and summarized system state. Driver API: - Add CAN XL support to the CAN Netlink interface. - Add uAPI for reporting PHY Mean Square Error (MSE) diagnostics, as defined by the OPEN Alliance's "Advanced diagnostic features for 100BASE-T1 automotive Ethernet PHYs" specification. - Add DPLL phase-adjust-gran pin attribute (and implement it in zl3073x). - Refactor xfrm_input lock to reduce contention when NIC offloads IPsec and performs RSS. - Add info to devlink params whether the current setting is the default or a user override. Allow resetting back to default. - Add standard device stats for PSP crypto offload. - Leverage DSA frame broadcast to implement simple HSR frame duplication for a lot of switches without dedicated HSR offload. - Add uAPI defines for 1.6Tbps link modes. Device drivers: - Add Motorcomm YT921x gigabit Ethernet switch support. - Add MUCSE driver for N500/N210 1GbE NIC series. - Convert drivers to support dedicated ops for timestamping control, and away from the direct IOCTL handling. While at it support GET operations for PHY timestamping. - Add (and convert most drivers to) a dedicated ethtool callback for reading the Rx ring count. - Significant refactoring efforts in the STMMAC driver, which supports Synopsys turn-key MAC IP integrated into a ton of SoCs. -
