Merge tag 'perf-core-2022-05-23' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull perf events updates from Ingo Molnar:
"Platform PMU changes:
- x86/intel:
- Add new Intel Alder Lake and Raptor Lake support
- x86/amd:
- AMD Zen4 IBS extensions support
- Add AMD PerfMonV2 support
- Add AMD Fam19h Branch Sampling support
Generic changes:
- signal: Deliver SIGTRAP on perf event asynchronously if blocked
Perf instrumentation can be driven via SIGTRAP, but this causes a
problem when SIGTRAP is blocked by a task & terminate the task.
Allow user-space to request these signals asynchronously (after
they get unblocked) & also give the information to the signal
handler when this happens:
"To give user space the ability to clearly distinguish
synchronous from asynchronous signals, introduce
siginfo_t::si_perf_flags and TRAP_PERF_FLAG_ASYNC (opted for
flags in case more binary information is required in future).
The resolution to the problem is then to (a) no longer force the
signal (avoiding the terminations), but (b) tell user space via
si_perf_flags if the signal was synchronous or not, so that such
signals can be handled differently (e.g. let user space decide
to ignore or consider the data imprecise). "
- Unify/standardize the /sys/devices/cpu/events/* output format.
- Misc fixes & cleanups"
