perf/x86/intel: Expose EPT-friendly PEBS for SPR and future models
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
According to Intel SDM, the EPT-friendly PEBS is supported by all the
platforms after ICX, ADL and the future platforms with PEBS format 5.

Currently the only in-kernel user of this capability is KVM, which has
very limited support for hybrid core pmu, so ADL and its successors do
not currently expose this capability. When both hybrid core and PEBS
format 5 are present, KVM will decide on its own merits.
