- Fix various per event 'max-stack' and 'call-graph=dwarf' issues, mostly in 'perf trace', allowing to use 'perf trace --call-graph' with 'dwarf' and 'fp' to setup the callgraph details for the syscall events and make that apply to other events, whilhe allowing to override that on a per-event basis, using '-e sched:*switch/call-graph=dwarf/' for instance (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) - Improve the --time percent support in record/report/script (Jin Yao) - Fix copyfile_offset update of output offset (Jiri Olsa) - Add python script to profile and resolve physical mem type (Kan Liang) - Add ARM Statistical Profiling Extensions (SPE) support (Kim Phillips) - Remove trailing semicolon in the evlist code (Luis de Bethencourt) - Fix incorrect handling of type _TERM_DRV_CFG (Mathieu Poirier) - Use asprintf when possible in libtraceevent (Federico Vaga) - Fix bad force_token escape sequence in libtraceevent (Michael Sartain) - Add UL suffix to MISSING_EVENTS in libtraceevent (Michael Sartain) - value of unknown symbolic fields in libtraceevent (Jan Kiszka) - libtraceevent updates: (Steven Rostedt) o Show value of flags that have not been parsed o Simplify pointer print logic and fix %pF o Handle new pointer processing of bprint strings o Show contents (in hex) of data of unrecognized type records o Fix get_field_str() for dynamic strings - Add missing break in FALSE case of pevent_filter_clear_trivial() (Taeung Song) - Fix failed memory allocation for get_cpuid_str (Thomas Richter) Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAABCAAdFiEELb9bqkb7Te0zijNb1lAW81NSqkAFAlpfcqoACgkQ1lAW81NS qkBDxQ/8CdJGxeHyookAaEYAUvezRBQKi7fwkZN+wYwWE5YpsgLI4MONT9boQGBE siPCrRcPjGU7455Xka2/wC067lZkfn7aTEHrVODUld3uLrnNtsa0zuKogaF9+D8E 4MxW5OsMyfn+hx9JGxQcH59euHeeJcMY5Rj+067x6KgMX9znl6wFJfBTkLC8tXhx lRhpC3sbENHorLg+u00MCtlAIIHc9iqsUR32CCsGfFJTLQc2Asy1Xb0he/GRYLrX vdrflQ7TB7I/c+yQayBPpKSLQvhj/F0ltHtWBzH3haCdp97NWQ+gaYxeO6MZ3j7Z 6zTrUh9ICG65Nw4SnOHHiz9Y0u0prMSkHdcfCl03d4AJf+iHfXoZwWiEMZhzBmdQ rGDNEdXigORkjOLGG7oFlQYny3GQzH4cY7+r138dpicZmys6z4wh9yU1I1ex8wcL EfGxpzGi7uKoACu3Rlxv+ByeLTsiCnkUUcmeQg9qq1M99Bw3qP19VXiFlaCE2NPT gL8iKo392oVyyJzMZgFAxzDQ+2YlvcsjBZ6kW7YG6Jl8H3AqRPDoSLXrs890PQzR BJTkRUEajddVv/1lzSXy67RypQdcGADqNC2F5/4akyfAF2jCBJj4VVnxlvky7gxj r6u9h8zpi0pV5Rk4qSicu4IvidfNLpK6gWqfoJIEoJDA2/CYZP8= =dEKk -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo-4.16-20180117' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/core Pull perf/core improvements and fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo: - Fix various per event 'max-stack' and 'call-graph=dwarf' issues, mostly in 'perf trace', allowing to use 'perf trace --call-graph' with 'dwarf' and 'fp' to setup the callgraph details for the syscall events and make that apply to other events, whilhe allowing to override that on a per-event basis, using '-e sched:*switch/call-graph=dwarf/' for instance (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) - Improve the --time percent support in record/report/script (Jin Yao) - Fix copyfile_offset update of output offset (Jiri Olsa) - Add python script to profile and resolve physical mem type (Kan Liang) - Add ARM Statistical Profiling Extensions (SPE) support (Kim Phillips) - Remove trailing semicolon in the evlist code (Luis de Bethencourt) - Fix incorrect handling of type _TERM_DRV_CFG (Mathieu Poirier) - Use asprintf when possible in libtraceevent (Federico Vaga) - Fix bad force_token escape sequence in libtraceevent (Michael Sartain) - Add UL suffix to MISSING_EVENTS in libtraceevent (Michael Sartain) - value of unknown symbolic fields in libtraceevent (Jan Kiszka) - libtraceevent updates: (Steven Rostedt) o Show value of flags that have not been parsed o Simplify pointer print logic and fix %pF o Handle new pointer processing of bprint strings o Show contents (in hex) of data of unrecognized type records o Fix get_field_str() for dynamic strings - Add missing break in FALSE case of pevent_filter_clear_trivial() (Taeung Song) - Fix failed memory allocation for get_cpuid_str (Thomas Richter) Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
