Ingo Molnar 39b656ee9f perf/core improvements and fixes: 
perf trace:
 
   Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
 
   - Reuse the strace-like syscall_arg_fmt->scnprintf() beautification routines
     (convert integer arguments into strings, like open flags, etc) in tracepoint
     arguments.
 
     For now the type based scnprintf routines (pid_t, umode_t, etc) and the
     ones based in well known arg name based ("fd", etc) gets associated with
     tracepoint args of that type.
 
     A tracepoint only arg, "msr", for the msr:{write,read}_msr gets added as
     an initial step.
 
   - Introduce syscall_arg_fmt->strtoul() methods to be the reverse operation
     of ->scnprintf(), i.e. to go from a string to an integer.
 
   - Implement --filter, just like in 'perf record', that affects the tracepoint
     events specied thus far in the command line, use the ->strtoul() methods
     to allow strings in tables associated with beautifiers to the integers
     the in-kernel tracepoint (eBPF later) filters expect, e.g.:
 
      # perf trace --max-events 1 -e sched:*ipi --filter="cpu==1 || cpu==2"
       0.000 as/24630 sched:sched_wake_idle_without_ipi(cpu: 1)

   - Default to not using libtraceevent and its plugins for beautifying
     tracepoint arguments, since now we're reusing the strace-like beatufiers.
     Use --libtraceevent_print (using just --libtrace is unambiguous and can
     be used as a short hand) to go back to those beautifiers.
 
     This will help in the transition, as can be seen in some of the sched tracepoints
     that still need some work in the libbeauty based mode:

   - Make -v (verbose) mode be honoured for .perfconfig based trace.add_events,
     to help in diagnosing problems with building eBPF events (-e source.c).
 
   - When using eBPF syscall payload augmentation do not show strace-like
     syscalls when all the user specified was some tracepoint event, bringing
     the behaviour in line with that of when not using eBPF augmentation.

    tracepoint arguments, since now we're reusing the strace-like beatufiers.
    Use --libtraceevent_print (using just --libtrace is unambiguous and can
    be used as a short hand) to go back to those beautifiers.

    This will help in the transition, as can be seen in some of the sched tracepoints
    that still need some work in the libbeauty based mode:

  - Make -v (verbose) mode be honoured for .perfconfig based trace.add_events,
    to help in diagnosing problems with building eBPF events (-e source.c).

  - When using eBPF syscall payload augmentation do not show strace-like
    syscalls when all the user specified was some tracepoint event, bringing
    the behaviour in line with that of when not using eBPF augmentation.

Intel PT:

  exported-sql-viewer GUI:

  Adrian Hunter:

  - Add LookupModel, HBoxLayout, VBoxLayout, global time range calculations
    so as to add a time chart by CPU.

perf script:

  Andi Kleen:

  - Allow --time (to specify a time span of interest) with --reltime

perf diff:

  Jin Yao:

  - Report noise for cycles diff, i.e. a histogram + stddev.
    (timestamps relative to start).

perf annotate:

  Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

  - Initialize env->cpuid when running in live mode (perf top), as it
    is used in some of the per arch annotation init routines.

samples bpf:

  Björn Töpel:

  - Fixup fallout of using tools/perf/perf-sys. from outside tools/perf.

Core:

  Ian Rogers:

  - Avoid 'sample_reg_masks' being const + weak, as this breaks with some
    compilers that constant-propagate from the weak symbol.

libperf:

  - First part of moving the perf_mmap class from tools/perf to libperf.

  - Propagate CFLAGS to libperf from the tools/perf Makefile.

Vendor events:

  John Garry:

  - Add entry in MAINTAINERS with reviewers for the for perf tool arm64
    pmu-events files.

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.
