[PATCH 0/3] arm64: perf: Make compat tracing better

From: Douglas Anderson <dianders@chromium.org>
Date: 2021-05-07 20:55:43
Also in: linux-perf-users, lkml

The goal for this series is to improve "perf" behavior when 32-bit
userspace code is involved. This turns out to be fairly important for
Chrome OS which still runs 32-bit userspace for the time being (long
story there).

I won't repeat everything said in the individual patches since since
they are wordy enough as it is.

Please enjoy and I hope this isn't too ugly/hacky for inclusion in
mainline.

Thanks to Nick Desaulniers for his early review of these patches and
to Ricky for the super early prototype that some of this is based on.

    functions
  arm64: perf: Add a config option saying 32-bit thumb code uses R11 for
    FP
