Linux kernel source tree
e2c8b40e37
Top-Down Microarchitecture Analysis (TMA) metrics simplify
cycle-accounting using microarchitecture-abstracted metrics
organized in one hierarchy. This update is from version 4.5 to
4.7.
The update includes:
- tma_info_bottleneck* metrics, an abstraction or summarization of
the 100+ TMA tree nodes into 12-entry familiar performance metrics.
- Reduce number of events (multiplexing) for tma_info_system_gflops,
tma_info_core_flopc, tma_info_inst_mix_ipflop and tma_ports_utilized_0.
- Fixes for tma_info_bottleneck_mispredictions and
tma_info_bad_spec_branch_misprediction_cost.
- tma_serializing_operation is raised to level 3.
- Swapped tma_info_core_ilp (becomes per SMT thread) and
tma_info_pipeline_execute (per physical core).
- tma_nop_instructions and tma_shuffles_256b are lowered to level 4
under tma_other_light_ops_group.
- Reduced number of events when SMT is off.
- Tuned thresholds for tma_info_bottleneck_branching_overhead,
tma_fetch_bandwidth and tma_ports_utilized_3m.
The update came from:

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.
