Linus Torvalds aac4de465a Performance events changes for v6.8 are:
- Add branch stack counters ABI extension to better capture
    the growing amount of information the PMU exposes via
    branch stack sampling. There's matching tooling support.
 
  - Fix race when creating the nr_addr_filters sysfs file
 
  - Add Intel Sierra Forest and Grand Ridge intel/cstate
    PMU support.
 
  - Add Intel Granite Rapids, Sierra Forest and Grand Ridge
    uncore PMU support.
 
  - Misc cleanups & fixes.

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.
