Ingo Molnar dfb9b69e3b perf/urgent fixes:
BPF:
 
   Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
 
   - Fix script used to obtain kernel make directives to work with new kbuild
     used for building BPF programs.
 
 maps:
 
   Jiri Olsa:
 
   - Fixup kmap->kmaps backpointer in kernel maps.
 
 arm64:
 
   John Garry:
 
   - Add arm64 version of get_cpuid() to get proper, arm64 specific output from
     'perf list' and other tools.
 
 perf top:
 
   Kim Phillips:
 
   - Update kernel idle symbols so that output in AMD systems is in line with
     other systems.
 
 perf stat:
 
   Kim Phillips:
 
   - Don't report a null stalled cycles per insn metric.
 
 tools headers:
 
   Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
 
   - Sync tools/ headers with the kernel sources to get things like syscall
     numbers and new arguments so that 'perf trace' can decode and use them in
     tracepoint filters, e.g. prctl's new PR_{G,S}ET_IO_FLUSHER options.

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.
