- PMU driver updates:
- Add AMD Last Branch Record Extension Version 2 (LbrExtV2)
feature support for Zen 4 processors.
- Extend the perf ABI to provide branch speculation information,
if available, and use this on CPUs that have it (eg. LbrExtV2).
- Improve Intel PEBS TSC timestamp handling & integration.
- Add Intel Raptor Lake S CPU support.
- Add 'perf mem' and 'perf c2c' memory profiling support on
AMD CPUs by utilizing IBS tagged load/store samples.
- Clean up & optimize various x86 PMU details.
- HW breakpoints:
- Big rework to optimize the code for systems with hundreds of CPUs and
thousands of breakpoints:
- Replace the nr_bp_mutex global mutex with the bp_cpuinfo_sem
per-CPU rwsem that is read-locked during most of the key operations.
- Improve the O(#cpus * #tasks) logic in toggle_bp_slot()
and fetch_bp_busy_slots().
- Apply micro-optimizations & cleanups.
- Misc cleanups & enhancements.

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.
