Linus Torvalds 486adcea4a 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 were:

   - Modernize the kprobe and uprobe creation/destruction tooling ABIs:

     The existing text based APIs (kprobe_events and uprobe_events in
     tracefs), are naive, limited ABIs in that they require user-space
     to clean up after themselves, which is both difficult and fragile
     if the tool is buggy or exits unexpectedly. In other words they are
     not really suited for modern, robust tooling.

     So introduce a modern, file descriptor based ABI that does not have
     these limitations: introduce the 'perf_kprobe' and 'perf_uprobe'
     PMUs and extend the perf_event_open() syscall to create events with
     a kprobe/uprobe attached to them. These [k,u]probe are associated
     with this file descriptor, so they are not available in tracefs.

     (Song Liu)

   - Intel Cannon Lake CPU support (Harry Pan)

   - Intel PT cleanups (Alexander Shishkin)

   - Improve the performance of pinned/flexible event groups by using RB
     trees (Alexey Budankov)

   - Add PERF_EVENT_IOC_MODIFY_ATTRIBUTES which allows the modification
     of hardware breakpoints, which new ABI variant massively speeds up
     existing tooling that uses hardware breakpoints to instrument (and
     debug) memory usage.

     (Milind Chabbi, Jiri Olsa)

   - Various Intel PEBS handling fixes and improvements, and other Intel
     PMU improvements (Kan Liang)

   - Various perf core improvements and optimizations (Peter Zijlstra)

   - ... misc cleanups, fixes and updates.

  There's over 200 tooling commits, here's an (imperfect) list of
  highlights:

   - 'perf annotate' improvements:

      * Recognize and handle jumps to other functions as calls, which
        improves the navigation along jumps and back. (Arnaldo Carvalho
        de Melo)

      * Add the 'P' hotkey in TUI annotation to dump annotation output
        into a file, to ease e-mail reporting of annotation details.
        (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

      * Add an IPC/cycles column to the TUI (Jin Yao)

      * Improve s390 assembly annotation (Thomas Richter)

      * Refactor the output formatting logic to better separate it into
        interactive and non-interactive features and add the --stdio2
        output variant to demonstrate this. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

   - 'perf script' improvements:

      * Add Python 3 support (Jaroslav Škarvada)

      * Add --show-round-event (Jiri Olsa)

   - 'perf c2c' improvements:

      * Add NUMA analysis support (Jiri Olsa)

   - 'perf trace' improvements:

      * Improve PowerPC support (Ravi Bangoria)

   - 'perf inject' improvements:

      * Integrate ARM CoreSight traces (Robert Walker)

   - 'perf stat' improvements:

      * Add the --interval-count option (yuzhoujian)

      * Add the --timeout option (yuzhoujian)

   - 'perf sched' improvements (Changbin Du)

   - Vendor events improvements :

      * Add IBM s390 vendor events (Thomas Richter)

      * Add and improve arm64 vendor events (John Garry, Ganapatrao
        Kulkarni)

      * Update POWER9 vendor events (Sukadev Bhattiprolu)

   - Intel PT tooling improvements (Adrian Hunter)

   - PMU handling improvements (Agustin Vega-Frias)

   - Record machine topology in perf.data (Jiri Olsa)

   - Various overwrite related cleanups (Kan Liang)

   - Add arm64 dwarf post unwind support (Kim Phillips, Jean Pihet)

   - ... and lots of other changes, cleanups and fixes, see the shortlog
     and Git history for details"
