Subject: [PATCH V3 01/17] perf/x86: Use x86_perf_regs in the x86 nmi handler
Date: Fri, 15 Aug 2025 14:34:19 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250815213435.1702022-2-kan.liang@linux.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250815213435.1702022-1-kan.liang@linux.intel.com>
From: Kan Liang <kan.liang@linux.intel.com>
More and more regs will be supported in the overflow, e.g., more vector
registers, SSP, etc. The generic pt_regs struct cannot store all of
them. Use a X86 specific x86_perf_regs instead.
The struct pt_regs *regs is still passed to x86_pmu_handle_irq(). There
is no functional change for the existing code.
AMD IBS's NMI handler doesn't utilize the static call
x86_pmu_handle_irq(). The x86_perf_regs struct doesn't apply to the AMD
IBS. It can be added separately later when AMD IBS supports more regs.
