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.

Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar: "The main kernel side changes in this cycle were: - Various Intel-PT updates and optimizations (Alexander Shishkin) - Prohibit kprobes on Xen/KVM emulate prefixes (Masami Hiramatsu) - Add support for LSM and SELinux checks to control access to the perf syscall (Joel Fernandes) - Misc other changes, optimizations, fixes and cleanups - see the shortlog for details. There were numerous tooling changes as well - 254 non-merge commits. Here are the main changes - too many to list in detail: - Enhancements to core tooling infrastructure, perf.data, libperf, libtraceevent, event parsing, vendor events, Intel PT, callchains, BPF support and instruction decoding. - There were updates to the following tools: perf annotate perf diff perf inject perf kvm perf list perf maps perf parse perf probe perf record perf report perf script perf stat perf test perf trace - And a lot of other changes: please see the shortlog and Git log for more details" * 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (279 commits) perf parse: Fix potential memory leak when handling tracepoint errors perf probe: Fix spelling mistake "addrees" -> "address" libtraceevent: Fix memory leakage in copy_filter_type libtraceevent: Fix header installation perf intel-bts: Does not support AUX area sampling perf intel-pt: Add support for decoding AUX area samples perf intel-pt: Add support for recording AUX area samples perf pmu: When using default config, record which bits of config were changed by the user perf auxtrace: Add support for queuing AUX area samples perf session: Add facility to peek at all events perf auxtrace: Add support for dumping AUX area samples perf inject: Cut AUX area samples perf record: Add aux-sample-size config term perf record: Add support for AUX area sampling perf auxtrace: Add support for AUX area sample recording perf auxtrace: Move perf_evsel__find_pmu() perf record: Add a function to test for kernel support for AUX area sampling perf tools: Add kernel AUX area sampling definitions perf/core: Make the mlock accounting simple again perf report: Jump to symbol source view from total cycles view ...
