Current perf stat uses the evlist__add_default_attrs() to add the
generic default attrs, and uses arch_evlist__add_default_attrs() to add
the Arch specific default attrs, e.g., Topdown for x86.
It works well for the non-hybrid platforms. However, for a hybrid
platform, the hard code generic default attrs don't work.
Uses arch_evlist__add_default_attrs() to replace the
evlist__add_default_attrs(). The arch_evlist__add_default_attrs() is
modified to invoke the same __evlist__add_default_attrs() for the
generic default attrs. No functional change.
Add default_null_attrs[] to indicate the arch specific attrs.
No functional change for the arch specific default attrs either.

With the hardware TopDown metrics feature, the sample-read feature should
be supported for a TopDown group, e.g., sample a non-topdown event and read
a Topdown metric group. But the current perf record code errors are out.
For a TopDown metric group,the slots event must be the leader of the group,
but the leader slots event doesn't support sampling. To support sample-read
the TopDown metric group, uses the 2nd event of the group as the "leader"
for the purposes of sampling.
Only the platform with the TopDown metric feature supports sample-read the
topdown group. In commit acb65150a4 ("perf record: Support sample-read
topdown metric group"), it adds arch_topdown_sample_read() to indicate
whether the TopDown group supports sample-read, it should only work on the
non-hybrid systems, this patch extends the support for hybrid platforms.

The X86 specific arch__intr_reg_mask() is to check whether the kernel
and hardware can collect XMM registers. But it doesn't work on some
hybrid platform.
Without the patch on ADL-N:
$ perf record -I?
available registers: AX BX CX DX SI DI BP SP IP FLAGS CS SS R8 R9 R10
R11 R12 R13 R14 R15
The config of the test event doesn't contain the PMU information. The
kernel may fail to initialize it on the correct hybrid PMU and return
the wrong non-supported information.
Add the PMU information into the config for the hybrid platform. The
same register set is supported among different hybrid PMUs. Checking
the first available one is good enough.
With the patch on ADL-N:
$ perf record -I?

The commit 94dbfd6781 ("perf parse-events: Architecture specific

fulfill the restriction of the perf metrics topdown group. But the
feature doesn't work on the hybrid machine.

A hybrid platform has a different PMU name for the core PMUs, while
current perf hard code the PMU name "cpu".
Introduce a new function to check whether the system supports the perf
metrics feature. The result is cached for the future usage.
For X86, the core PMU name always has "cpu" prefix.

The evsel->name may have a different format for a topdown event, a pure
topdown name (e.g., topdown-fe-bound), or a PMU name + a topdown name
(e.g., cpu/topdown-fe-bound/). The cpu/topdown-fe-bound/ kind format
isn't supported by the arch_evlist__leader(). This format is a very
common format for a hybrid platform, which requires specifying the PMU
name for each event.

A hybrid platform has a different PMU name for the core PMUs, while
the current perf hard code the PMU name "cpu".
The evsel->pmu_name can be used to replace the "cpu" to fix the issue.
For a hybrid platform, the pmu_name must be non-NULL. Because there are
at least two core PMUs. The PMU has to be specified.
For a non-hybrid platform, the pmu_name may be NULL. Because there is
only one core PMU, "cpu". For a NULL pmu_name, we can safely assume that
it is a "cpu" PMU.
In case other PMUs also define the "slots" event, checking the PMU type
as well.

o Faults, exceptions including the fault vector.
- Page faults additionally include the page fault address,
when in context.
o Event handler returns, including IRET and RSM.
o VM exits and VM entries.¹
- VM exits include the values written to the “exit reason”

o Shutdown.

"There are three sets of updates for 5.18 in the asm-generic tree:
- The set_fs()/get_fs() infrastructure gets removed for good.
This was already gone from all major architectures, but now we can
finally remove it everywhere, which loses some particularly tricky
and error-prone code. There is a small merge conflict against a
parisc cleanup, the solution is to use their new version.
- The nds32 architecture ends its tenure in the Linux kernel.
The hardware is still used and the code is in reasonable shape, but
the mainline port is not actively maintained any more, as all
remaining users are thought to run vendor kernels that would never
be updated to a future release.

The nds32 architecture, also known as AndeStar V3, is a custom 32-bit
RISC target designed by Andes Technologies. Support was added to the
kernel in 2016 as the replacement RISC-V based V5 processors were
already announced, and maintained by (current or former) Andes
employees.
As explained by Alan Kao, new customers are now all using RISC-V,
and all known nds32 users are already on longterm stable kernels
provided by Andes, with no development work going into mainline
support any more.
While the port is still in a reasonably good shape, it only gets
worse over time without active maintainers, so it seems best
to remove it before it becomes unusable. As always, if it turns
out that there are mainline users after all, and they volunteer
to maintain the port in the future, the removal can be reverted.

As of Intel SDM (https://www.intel.com/sdm) version 076, there is a new
Intel PT feature called Event Trace which requires 2 new packets CFE and
EVD. Add them to the packet decoder and packet decoder test.
Committer notes:
I got the "Intel® 64 and IA-32 architectures software developer’s manual
combined volumes: 1, 2A, 2B, 2C, 2D, 3A, 3B, 3C, 3D, and 4" PDF at:
https://cdrdv2.intel.com/v1/dl/getContent/671200
And these new packets are described in page 3951:

Event Trace is a capability that exposes details about the asynchronous
events, when they are generated, and when their corresponding software
event handler completes execution. These include:
o Interrupts, including NMI and SMI, including the interrupt vector when
defined.
o Faults, exceptions including the fault vector.
— Page faults additionally include the page fault address, when in context.
o Event handler returns, including IRET and RSM.
o VM exits and VM entries.¹
— VM exits include the values written to the “exit reason” and “exit qualification” VMCS fields.
INIT and SIPI events.
o TSX aborts, including the abort status returned for the RTM instructions.
o Shutdown.
Additionally, it provides indication of the status of the Interrupt Flag
(IF), to indicate when interrupts are masked.

Remove my old invalid email address which can be found in a couple of
files. Instead of updating it, just remove my contact data completely
from source files.
We have git and other tools which allow to figure out who is responsible
for what with recent contact data.

The x86 instruction decoder is used for both kernel instructions and
user space instructions (e.g. uprobes, perf tools Intel PT), so it is
good to update it with new instructions.
Add AVX512-FP16 instructions to x86 instruction decoder test.
A subsequent patch adds the instructions to the instruction decoder.

The x86 instruction decoder is used for both kernel instructions and
user space instructions (e.g. uprobes, perf tools Intel PT), so it is
good to update it with new instructions.
Add the following instructions to the x86 instruction decoder test:
User Interrupt
clui
senduipi
stui
testui
uiret
Prediction history reset
hreset
Serialize instruction execution
serialize
TSX suspend load address tracking
xresldtrk
xsusldtrk
A subsequent patch adds the instructions to the instruction decoder.
