There are 567 patches in this series, all will be posted as a response

let me know.


While trying to build 5.15.99-rc1 with
* make -C tools/perf all

The following build errors are seen.

util/intel-pt-decoder/intel-pt-decoder.c: In function 'intel_pt_eptw_lookahead_cb':
util/intel-pt-decoder/intel-pt-decoder.c:1445:14: error: 'INTEL_PT_CFE'
[...]

[PATCH 5.15 264/567] perf intel-pt: Add support for emulated ptwrite
is causing this error.

In addition, cherry-picking this fixes the build (but we haven't done a
full test with it):

commit 2750af50a360b52c6df1f5652ae728878bececc0
Author: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@xxxxxxxxx>
Date: Mon Jan 24 10:41:39 2022 +0200

perf intel-pt: pkt-decoder: Add CFE and EVD packets

Greg: Do you prefer this kind of error report go to the 0/N email (like
in this case) or to the specific problematic patch email if we've
already identified it?

Thanks,


Vegard
