Linus Torvalds 3bff6112c8 These are the performance events changes for v5.10:
x86 Intel updates:
 
  - Add Jasper Lake support
 
  - Add support for TopDown metrics on Ice Lake
 
  - Fix Ice Lake & Tiger Lake uncore support, add Snow Ridge support
 
  - Add a PCI sub driver to support uncore PMUs where the PCI resources
    have been claimed already - extending the range of supported systems.
 
 x86 AMD updates:
 
  - Restore 'perf stat -a' behaviour to program the uncore PMU
    to count all CPU threads.
 
  - Fix setting the proper count when sampling Large Increment
    per Cycle events / 'paired' events.
 
  - Fix IBS Fetch sampling on F17h and some other IBS fine tuning,
    greatly reducing the number of interrupts when large sample
    periods are specified.
 
  - Extends Family 17h RAPL support to also work on compatible
    F19h machines.
 
 Core code updates:
 
  - Fix race in perf_mmap_close()
 
  - Add PERF_EV_CAP_SIBLING, to denote that sibling events should be
    closed if the leader is removed.
 
  - Smaller fixes and updates.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
