From: Linus Torvalds Date: Tue, 12 Jan 2016 20:29:25 +0000 (-0800) Subject: Merge tag 'arm64-perf' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux X-Git-Url: http://git.cdn.openwrt.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=541d284be0fcca3d3990e6dd89b091aec66849c6;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git Merge tag 'arm64-perf' of git://git./linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux Pull arm[64] perf updates from Will Deacon: "In the past, I have funnelled perf updates through the respective architecture trees, but now that the arm/arm64 perf driver has been largely consolidated under drivers/perf/, it makes more sense to send a separate pull, particularly as I'm listed as maintainer for all the files involved. I offered the branch to arm-soc, but Arnd suggested that I just send it to you directly. So, here is the arm/arm64 perf queue for 4.5. The main features are described below, but the most useful change is from Drew, which advertises our architected event mapping in sysfs so that the perf tool is a lot more user friendly and no longer requires the use of magic hex constants for profiling common events. - Support for the CPU PMU in Cortex-A72 - Add sysfs entries to describe the architected events and their mappings for PMUv{1-3}" * tag 'arm64-perf' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux: arm64: perf: add support for Cortex-A72 arm64: perf: add format entry to describe event -> config mapping ARM: perf: add format entry to describe event -> config mapping arm64: kernel: enforce pmuserenr_el0 initialization and restore arm64: perf: Correct Cortex-A53/A57 compatible values arm64: perf: Add event descriptions arm64: perf: Convert event enums to #defines arm: perf: Add event descriptions arm: perf: Convert event enums to #defines drivers/perf: kill armpmu_register --- 541d284be0fcca3d3990e6dd89b091aec66849c6
