Merge branch 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
"Features:
- Add "uretprobes" - an optimization to uprobes, like kretprobes are
an optimization to kprobes. "perf probe -x file sym%return" now
works like kretprobes. By Oleg Nesterov.
- Introduce per core aggregation in 'perf stat', from Stephane
Eranian.
- Add memory profiling via PEBS, from Stephane Eranian.
- Event group view for 'annotate' in --stdio, --tui and --gtk, from
Namhyung Kim.
- Add support for AMD NB and L2I "uncore" counters, by Jacob Shin.
- Add Ivy Bridge-EP uncore support, by Zheng Yan
- IBM zEnterprise EC12 oprofile support patchlet from Robert Richter.
- Add perf test entries for checking breakpoint overflow signal
handler issues, from Jiri Olsa.
- Add perf test entry for for checking number of EXIT events, from
Namhyung Kim.
- Add perf test entries for checking --cpu in record and stat, from
Jiri Olsa.
- Introduce perf stat --repeat forever, from Frederik Deweerdt.
- Add --no-demangle to report/top, from Namhyung Kim.
- PowerPC fixes plus a couple of cleanups/optimizations in uprobes
and trace_uprobes, by Oleg Nesterov.
Various fixes and refactorings:
- Fix dependency of the python binding wrt libtraceevent, from
Naohiro Aota.
- Simplify some perf_evlist methods and to allow 'stat' to share code
with 'record' and 'trace', by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo.
- Remove dead code in related to libtraceevent integration, from
Namhyung Kim.
- Revert "perf sched: Handle PERF_RECORD_EXIT events" to get 'perf
sched lat' back working, by Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
- We don't use Newt anymore, just plain libslang, by Arnaldo Carvalho
de Melo.
- Kill a bunch of die() calls, from Namhyung Kim.
- Fix build on non-glibc systems due to libio.h absence, from Cody P
Schafer.
- Remove some perf_session and tracing dead code, from David Ahern.
- Honor parallel jobs, fix from Borislav Petkov
- Introduce tools/lib/lk library, initially just removing duplication
among tools/perf and tools/vm. from Borislav Petkov
... and many more I missed to list, see the shortlog and git log for
more details."
