Rename global_ovf_ctrl_mask to global_status_mask to avoid confusion now that Intel has renamed GLOBAL_OVF_CTRL to GLOBAL_STATUS_RESET in PMU v4. GLOBAL_OVF_CTRL and GLOBAL_STATUS_RESET are the same MSR index, i.e. are just different names for the same thing, but the SDM provides different entries in the IA-32 Architectural MSRs table, which gets really confusing when looking at PMU v4 definitions since it *looks* like GLOBAL_STATUS has bits that don't exist in GLOBAL_OVF_CTRL, but in reality the bits are simply defined in the GLOBAL_STATUS_RESET entry. No functional change intended. Cc: Like Xu <like.xu.linux@gmail.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20230603011058.1038821-2-seanjc@google.com Signed-off-by: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com>
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.
