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 changes in this cycle were:
Kernel:
- kprobes updates: use better W^X patterns for code modifications,
improve optprobes, remove jprobes. (Masami Hiramatsu, Kees Cook)
- core fixes: event timekeeping (enabled/running times statistics)
fixes, perf_event_read() locking fixes and cleanups, etc. (Peter
Zijlstra)
- Extend x86 Intel free-running PEBS support and support x86
user-register sampling in perf record and perf script. (Andi Kleen)
Tooling:
- Completely rework the way inline frames are handled. Instead of
querying for the inline nodes on-demand in the individual tools, we
now create proper callchain nodes for inlined frames. (Milian
Wolff)
- 'perf trace' updates (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Implement a way to print formatted output to per-event files in
'perf script' to facilitate generate flamegraphs, elliminating the
need to write scripts to do that separation (yuzhoujian, Arnaldo
Carvalho de Melo)
- Update vendor events JSON metrics for Intel's Broadwell, Broadwell
Server, Haswell, Haswell Server, IvyBridge, IvyTown, JakeTown,
Sandy Bridge, Skylake, SkyLake Server - and Goldmont Plus V1 (Andi
Kleen, Kan Liang)
- Multithread the synthesizing of PERF_RECORD_ events for
pre-existing threads in 'perf top', speeding up that phase, greatly
improving the user experience in systems such as Intel's Knights
Mill (Kan Liang)
- Introduce the concept of weak groups in 'perf stat': try to set up
a group, but if it's not schedulable fallback to not using a group.
That gives us the best of both worlds: groups if they work, but
still a usable fallback if they don't. E.g: (Andi Kleen)
- perf sched timehist enhancements (David Ahern)
- ... various other enhancements, updates, cleanups and fixes"
