Merge tag 'char-misc-6.16-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/char-misc

Pull char / misc / iio driver updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the big char/misc/iio and other small driver subsystem pull
  request for 6.16-rc1.

  Overall, a lot of individual changes, but nothing major, just the
  normal constant forward progress of new device support and cleanups to
  existing subsystems. Highlights in here are:

   - Large IIO driver updates and additions and device tree changes

   - Android binder bugfixes and logfile fixes

   - mhi driver updates

   - comedi driver updates

   - counter driver updates and additions

   - coresight driver updates and additions

   - echo driver removal as there are no in-kernel users of it

   - nvmem driver updates

   - spmi driver updates

   - new amd-sbi driver "subsystem" and drivers added

   - rust miscdriver binding documentation fix

   - other small driver fixes and updates (uio, w1, acrn, hpet,
     xillybus, cardreader drivers, fastrpc and others)

  All of these have been in linux-next for quite a while with no
  reported problems"

+Fine-grained tracing with AUX pause and resume
+----------------------------------------------
+
+Arm CoreSight may generate a large amount of hardware trace data, which
+will lead to overhead in recording and distract users when reviewing
+profiling result. To mitigate the issue of excessive trace data, Perf
+provides AUX pause and resume functionality for fine-grained tracing.
+
+The AUX pause and resume can be triggered by associated events. These
+events can be ftrace tracepoints (including static and dynamic
+tracepoints) or PMU events (e.g. CPU PMU cycle event). To create a perf
+session with AUX pause / resume, three configuration terms are
+introduced:
+
+- "aux-action=start-paused": it is specified for the cs_etm PMU event to
+  launch in a paused state.
+- "aux-action=pause": an associated event is specified with this term
+  to pause AUX trace.
+- "aux-action=resume": an associated event is specified with this term
+  to resume AUX trace.
+
+Example for triggering AUX pause and resume with ftrace tracepoints::
+
+  perf record -e cs_etm/aux-action=start-paused/k,syscalls:sys_enter_openat/aux-action=resume/,syscalls:sys_exit_openat/aux-action=pause/ ls
+
+Example for triggering AUX pause and resume with PMU event::
+
+  perf record -a -e cs_etm/aux-action=start-paused/k \
+        -e cycles/aux-action=pause,period=10000000/ \
+        -e cycles/aux-action=resume,period=1050000/ -- sleep 1
