Linus Torvalds 750991f9af Merge branch 'perf-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull perf fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
 "A pile of perf related fixes:

  Kernel:
   - Fix SLOTS PEBS event constraints for Icelake CPUs

   - Add the missing mask bit to allow counting hardware generated
     prefetches on L3 for Icelake CPUs

   - Make the test for hypervisor platforms more accurate (as far as
     possible)

   - Handle PMUs correctly which override event->cpu

   - Yet another missing fallthrough annotation

  Tools:
     perf.data:
        - Fix loading of compressed data split across adjacent records
        - Fix buffer size setting for processing CPU topology perf.data
          header.

     perf stat:
        - Fix segfault for event group in repeat mode
        - Always separate "stalled cycles per insn" line, it was being
          appended to the "instructions" line.

     perf script:
        - Fix --max-blocks man page description.
        - Improve man page description of metrics.
        - Fix off by one in brstackinsn IPC computation.

     perf probe:
        - Avoid calling freeing routine multiple times for same pointer.

     perf build:
        - Do not use -Wshadow on gcc < 4.8, avoiding too strict warnings
          treated as errors, breaking the build"

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.
