From 0102c8c7fdfc4bd700971daff2b94470f4eafae4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dapeng Mi Date: Thu, 17 Sep 2026 09:52:33 +0800 Subject: perf/x86/intel: Rename DMR offcore_rsp attribute to offmodule_rsp DMR introduces Offmodule Response events in place of the legacy Offcore Response events, but it still exposes the inherited offcore_rsp PMU attribute for programming the corresponding MSR data. Rename the DMR PMU attribute to offmodule_rsp so the sysfs interface matches the underlying event name and avoids user & tooling confusion.
