Subject: [GIT PULL] Performance events updates for v6.18
Linus,
Please pull the latest perf/core Git tree from:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git perf-core-2025-09-26
# HEAD: 6d48436560e91be858158e227f21aab71698814e selftests/bpf: Fix uprobe_sigill test for uprobe syscall error value
Performance events updates for v6.18:
Core perf code updates:
- Convert mmap() related reference counts to refcount_t. This
is in reaction to the recently fixed refcount bugs, which
could have been detected earlier and could have mitigated
the bug somewhat. (Thomas Gleixner, Peter Zijlstra)
- Clean up and simplify the callchain code, in preparation
for sframes. (Steven Rostedt, Josh Poimboeuf)
Uprobes updates:
- Add support to optimize usdt probes on x86-64, which
gives a substantial speedup. (Jiri Olsa)
- Cleanups and fixes on x86 (Peter Zijlstra)
PMU driver updates:
- Various optimizations and fixes to the Intel PMU driver
(Dapeng Mi)
Misc cleanups and fixes:
- Remove redundant __GFP_NOWARN (Qianfeng Rong)
Thanks,
Ingo
