Linus Torvalds b34133fec8 - HW support updates: ... - Add uncore support for Intel Comet Lake - Add RAPL support for Hygon Fam18h - Add Intel "IIO stack to PMON mapping" support on Skylake-SP CPUs, which enumerates per device performance counters via sysfs and enables the perf stat --iiostat functionality - Add support for Intel "Architectural LBRs", which generalized the model specific LBR hardware tracing feature into a model-independent, architected performance monitoring feature. Usage is mostly seamless to tooling, as the pre-existing LBR features are kept, but there's a couple of advantages under the hood, such as faster context-switching, faster LBR reads, cleaner exposure of LBR features to guest kernels, etc. ( Since architectural LBRs are supported via XSAVE, there's related changes to the x86 FPU code as well. ) - ftrace/perf updates: Add support to add a text poke event to record changes to kernel text (i.e. self-modifying code) in order to support tracers like Intel PT decoding through jump labels, kprobes and ftrace trampolines. - Misc cleanups, smaller fixes.
