perf trace: (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Do not require --no-syscalls to suppress strace like output, i.e.
# perf trace -e sched:*switch
will show just sched:sched_switch events, not strace-like formatted
syscall events, use --syscalls to get the previous behaviour.
If instead:
# perf trace
is used, i.e. no events specified, then --syscalls is implied and
system wide strace like formatting will be applied to all syscalls.
The behaviour when just a syscall subset is used with '-e' is unchanged:
# perf trace -e *sleep,sched:*switch
will work as before: just the 'nanosleep' syscall will be strace-like
formatted plus the sched:sched_switch tracepoint event, system wide.
- Allow string table generators to use a default header dir, allowing
use of them without parameters to see the table it generates on
stdout, e.g.:
$ tools/perf/trace/beauty/kvm_ioctl.sh
static const char *kvm_ioctl_cmds[] = {
[0x00] = "GET_API_VERSION",
[0x01] = "CREATE_VM",
[0x02] = "GET_MSR_INDEX_LIST",
[0x03] = "CHECK_EXTENSION",
<BIG SNIP>
[0xe0] = "CREATE_DEVICE",
[0xe1] = "SET_DEVICE_ATTR",
[0xe2] = "GET_DEVICE_ATTR",
[0xe3] = "HAS_DEVICE_ATTR",
};
$
See 'ls tools/perf/trace/beauty/*.sh' to see the available string
table generators.
- Add a generator for IPPROTO_ socket's protocol constants.
perf record: (Kan Liang)
- Fix error out while applying initial delay and using LBR, due to
the use of a PERF_TYPE_SOFTWARE/PERF_COUNT_SW_DUMMY event to track
PERF_RECORD_MMAP events while waiting for the initial delay. Such
events fail when configured asking PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK in
perf_event_attr.sample_type.
perf c2c: (Jiri Olsa)
- Fix report crash for empty browser, when processing a perf.data file
without events of interest, either because not asked for in
'perf record' or because the workload didn't triggered such events.
perf list: (Michael Petlan)
- Align metric group description format with PMU event description.
perf tests: (Sandipan Das)
- Fix indexing when invoking subtests, which caused BPF tests to
get results for the next test in the list, with the last one
reporting a failure.
eBPF:
- Fix installation directory for header files included from eBPF proggies,
avoiding clashing with relative paths used to build other software projects
such as glibc. (Thomas Richter)
- Show better message when failing to load an object. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
General: (Christophe Leroy)
- Allow overriding MAX_NR_CPUS at compile time, to make the tooling
usable in systems with less memory, in time this has to be changed
to properly allocate based on _NPROCESSORS_ONLN.
Architecture specific:
- Update arm64's ThunderX2 implementation defined pmu core events (Ganapatrao Kulkarni)
- Fix complex event name parsing in 'perf test' for PowerPC, where the 'umask' event
modifier isn't present. (Sandipan Das)
CoreSight ARM hardware tracing: (Leo Yan)
- Fix start tracing packet handling.
- Support dummy address value for CS_ETM_TRACE_ON packet.
- Generate branch sample when receiving a CS_ETM_TRACE_ON packet.
- Generate branch sample for CS_ETM_TRACE_ON packet.

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.
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.
