Linus,
Please pull the latest perf/core git tree from:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git perf-core-2021-04-28
# HEAD: ed8e50800bf4c2d904db9c75408a67085e6cca3d signal, perf: Add missing TRAP_PERF case in siginfo_layout()
Perf events changes in this cycle were:
- Improve Intel uncore PMU support:
- Parse uncore 'discovery tables' - a new hardware capability enumeration method
introduced on the latest Intel platforms. This table is in a well-defined PCI
namespace location and is read via MMIO. It is organized in an rbtree.
These uncore tables will allow the discovery of standard counter blocks, but
fancier counters still need to be enumerated explicitly.
- Add Alder Lake support
- Improve IIO stacks to PMON mapping support on Skylake servers
- Add Intel Alder Lake PMU support - which requires the introduction of 'hybrid' CPUs
and PMUs. Alder Lake is a mix of Golden Cove ('big') and Gracemont ('small' - Atom derived)
cores.
The CPU-side feature set is entirely symmetrical - but on the PMU side there's
core type dependent PMU functionality.
- Reduce data loss with CPU level hardware tracing on Intel PT / AUX profiling, by
fixing the AUX allocation watermark logic.
- Improve NUMA system memory allocations:
- Put 'struct perf_event' into their separate kmem_cache pool
- Per node perf_event and ring buffer allocations
- Add support for synchronous signals for select perf events. The immediate motivation
is to support low-overhead sampling-based race detection for user-space code. The
feature consists of the following main changes:
- Add thread-only event inheritance via perf_event_attr::inherit_thread, which limits
inheritance of events to CLONE_THREAD.
- Add the ability for events to not leak through exec(), via perf_event_attr::remove_on_exec.
- Allow the generation of SIGTRAP via perf_event_attr::sigtrap, extend siginfo with an u64
::si_perf, and add the breakpoint information to ::si_addr and ::si_perf if the event is
PERF_TYPE_BREAKPOINT.
The siginfo support is adequate for breakpoints right now - but the new field can be used
to introduce support for other types of metadata passed over siginfo as well.
- Misc fixes, cleanups and smaller updates.
Thanks,
Ingo
