This series improves perf support for RISC-V based system using SBI PMU and Sscofpmf extensions, by adding a new generic RISC-V perf framework along with a pair of drivers: one that usese the new performance-monitoring extensions and one that keeps support for the existing systems that only have the legacy counters. Tested-by: Nikita Shubin <n.shubin@yadro.com> * palmer/riscv-pmu: MAINTAINERS: Add entry for RISC-V PMU drivers Documentation: riscv: Remove the old documentation RISC-V: Add sscofpmf extension support RISC-V: Add perf platform driver based on SBI PMU extension RISC-V: Add RISC-V SBI PMU extension definitions RISC-V: Add a simple platform driver for RISC-V legacy perf RISC-V: Add a perf core library for pmu drivers RISC-V: Add CSR encodings for all HPMCOUNTERS RISC-V: Remove the current perf implementation
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.
