Merge branch 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
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 ...
