2026-09-02perf: Enhance perf_reg_validate() with simd_enabled argumentDapeng Mi
The upcoming patch will support x86 APX eGPRs sampling by using the reclaimed XMM register space to represent eGPRs in sample_regs_* fields. To differentiate between XMM and eGPRs in sample_regs_* fields, an additional argument, simd_enabled, is introduced to the perf_reg_validate() helper. If simd_enabled is set to 1, it indicates that eGPRs are represented in sample_regs_* fields for the x86 platform; otherwise, XMM registers are represented.

2026-09-02perf: Eliminate duplicate arch-specific function definitionsDapeng Mi
Define default common __weak functions for perf_reg_value(), perf_reg_validate(), perf_reg_abi() and perf_get_regs_user(). This helps to eliminate the duplicated arch-specific definitions. No function changes intended.

2021-02-04MIPS: kernel: Support extracting off-line stack traces from user-space with perfTiezhu Yang
Add perf_event_mips_regs/perf_reg_value/perf_reg_validate to support features HAVE_PERF_REGS/HAVE_PERF_USER_STACK_DUMP in kernel. [ayan@wavecomp.com: Repick this patch for unwinding userstack backtrace by perf and libunwind on MIPS based CPU.] [ralf@linux-mips.org: Add perf_get_regs_user() which is required after 'commit 88a7c26af8da ("perf: Move task_pt_regs sampling into arch code")'.] [yangtiezhu@loongson.cn: Fix build error about perf_get_regs_user() after commit 76a4efa80900 ("perf/arch: Remove perf_sample_data::regs_user_copy"), and also separate the original patches into two parts (MIPS kernel and perf tools) to merge easily.] The original patches: https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/1126521/ https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/1126520/ Signed-off-by: David Daney <david.daney@cavium.com> Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org> Signed-off-by: Archer Yan <ayan@wavecomp.com> Signed-off-by: Tiezhu Yang <yangtiezhu@loongson.cn> Signed-off-by: Thomas Bogendoerfer <tsbogend@alpha.franken.de>
