Subject: [PATCH 6.6.y 0/4] perf/x86/amd: add LBR capture support outside of hardware events
Date: Fri, 2 Jan 2026 17:03:16 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260102090320.32843-1-leon.hwang@linux.dev> (raw)
Hi all,
This backport wires up AMD perfmon v2 so BPF and other software clients
can snapshot LBR stacks on demand, similar to the Intel support
upstream. The series keeps the LBR-freeze path branchless, adds the
perf_snapshot_branch_stack callback for AMD, and drops the
sampling-only restriction now that snapshots can be taken from software
contexts.
Leon Hwang (4):
perf/x86/amd: Ensure amd_pmu_core_disable_all() is always inlined
perf/x86/amd: Avoid taking branches before disabling LBR
perf/x86/amd: Support capturing LBR from software events
perf/x86/amd: Don't reject non-sampling events with configured LBR
