Each CBB and each IMH die has its own discovery domain. - Unlike prior CPUs that retrieve the global discovery table portal exclusively via PCI or MSR, DMR uses PCI for IMH PMON discovery and MSR for CBB PMON discovery. - DMR introduces several new PMON types: SCA, HAMVF, D2D_ULA, UBR, PCIE4, CRS, CPC, ITC, OTC, CMS, and PCIE6. - IIO free-running counters in DMR are MMIO-based, unlike SPR. - Also add support for Add missing PMON units for Intel Panther Lake, and support Nova Lake (NVL), which largely maps to Panther Lake. (Zide Chen) - KVM integration: Add support for mediated vPMUs (by Kan Liang and Sean Christopherson, with fixes and cleanups by Peter Zijlstra, Sandipan Das and Mingwei Zhang) - Add Intel cstate driver to support for Wildcat Lake (WCL) CPUs, which are a low-power variant of Panther Lake (Zide Chen) - Add core, cstate and MSR PMU support for the Airmont NP Intel CPU (aka MaxLinear Lightning Mountain), which maps to the existing Airmont code (Martin Schiller) Performance enhancements: - Speed up kexec shutdown by avoiding unnecessary cross CPU calls (Jan H. Schönherr) - Fix slow perf_event_task_exit() with LBR callstacks (Namhyung Kim) User-space stack unwinding support: - Various cleanups and refactorings in preparation to generalize the unwinding code for other architectures (Jens Remus) Uprobes updates: - Transition from kmap_atomic to kmap_local_page (Keke Ming) - Fix incorrect lockdep condition in filter_chain() (Breno Leitao) - Fix XOL allocation failure for 32-bit tasks (Oleg Nesterov) Misc fixes and cleanups: - s390: Remove kvm_types.h from Kbuild (Randy Dunlap) - x86/intel/uncore: Convert comma to semicolon (Chen Ni) - x86/uncore: Clean up const mismatch (Greg Kroah-Hartman) - x86/ibs: Fix typo in dc_l2tlb_miss comment (Xiang-Bin Shi)"* tag 'perf-core-2026-02-09' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (58 commits) s390: remove kvm_types.h from Kbuild uprobes: Fix incorrect lockdep condition in filter_chain() x86/ibs: Fix typo in dc_l2tlb_miss comment x86/uprobes: Fix XOL allocation failure for 32-bit tasks perf/x86/intel/uncore: Convert comma to semicolon perf/x86/intel: Add support for rdpmc user disable feature perf/x86: Use macros to replace magic numbers in attr_rdpmc perf/x86/intel: Add core PMU support for Novalake perf/x86/intel: Add support for PEBS memory auxiliary info field in NVL perf/x86/intel: Add core PMU support for DMR perf/x86/intel: Add support for PEBS memory auxiliary info field in DMR perf/x86/intel: Support the 4 new OMR MSRs introduced in DMR and NVL perf/core: Fix slow perf_event_task_exit() with LBR callstacks perf/core: Speed up kexec shutdown by avoiding unnecessary cross CPU calls uprobes: use kmap_local_page() for temporary page mappings arm/uprobes: use kmap_local_page() in arch_uprobe_copy_ixol() mips/uprobes: use kmap_local_page() in arch_uprobe_copy_ixol() arm64/uprobes: use kmap_local_page() in arch_uprobe_copy_ixol() riscv/uprobes: use kmap_local_page() in arch_uprobe_copy_ixol() perf/x86/intel/uncore: Add Nova Lake support ...

59af95e028d4114991b9bd96a39ad855b399cc07 - perf/x86/intel: Add support for rdpmc user disable feature

Wed, 14 Jan 2026 02:17:50 +0100

perf/x86/intel: Add support for rdpmc user disable featureStarting with Panther Cove, the rdpmc user disable feature is supported.This feature allows the perf system to disable user space rdpmc reads atthe counter level.Currently, when a global counter is active, any user with rdpmc rightscan read it, even if perf access permissions forbid it (e.g., disallowreading ring 0 counters). The rdpmc user disable feature mitigates thissecurity concern.Details:- A new RDPMC_USR_DISABLE bit (bit 37) in each EVNTSELx MSR indicates that the GP counter cannot be read by RDPMC in ring 3.- New RDPMC_USR_DISABLE bits in IA32_FIXED_CTR_CTRL MSR (bits 33, 37, 41, 45, etc.) for fixed counters 0, 1, 2, 3, etc.- When calling rdpmc instruction for counter x, the following pseudo code demonstrates how the counter value is obtained: If (!CPL0 && RDPMC_USR_DISABLE[x] == 1) ? 0 : counter_value;- RDPMC_USR_DISABLE is enumerated by CPUID.0x23.0.EBX[2].This patch extends the current global user space rdpmc control logic viathe sysfs interface (/sys/devices/cpu/rdpmc) as follows:- rdpmc = 0: Global user space rdpmc and counter-level user space rdpmc for all counters are both disabled.- rdpmc = 1: Global user space rdpmc is enabled during the mmap-enabled time window, and counter-level user space rdpmc is enabled only for non-system-wide events. This prevents counter data leaks as count data is cleared during context switches.- rdpmc = 2: Global user space rdpmc and counter-level user space rdpmc for all counters are enabled unconditionally.The new rdpmc settings only affect newly activated perf events; currentlyactive perf events remain unaffected. This simplifies and cleans up thecode. The default value of rdpmc remains unchanged at 1.For more details about rdpmc user disable, please refer to chapter 15"RDPMC USER DISABLE" in ISE documentation.Signed-off-by: Dapeng Mi Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260114011750.350569-8-dapeng1.mi@linux.intel.com List of files: /linux/Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-event_source-devices-rdpmc
