Core libraries:
 
   Jiri Olsa:
 
   - Fix max perf_event_attr.precise_ip detection.
 
   Kan Liang:
 
   - Fix parser error for uncore event alias
 
   Wei Lin:
 
   - Fixup ordering of kernel maps after obtaining the main kernel map address.
 
 Intel PT:
 
   Adrian Hunter:
 
   - Fix TSC slip where A TSC packet can slip past MTC packets so that the
     timestamp appears to go backwards.
 
   - Fixes for exported-sql-viewer GUI conversion to python3.
 
 ARM coresight:
 
   Solomon Tan:
 
   - Fix the build by adding a missing case value for enumeration value introduced
     in newer library, that now is the required one.
 
 tool headers:
 
   Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
 
   - Syncronize kernel headers with the kernel, getting new io_uring and
     pidfd_send_signal syscalls so that 'perf trace' can handle them.

README

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.
