Ingo Molnar d4652f614f perf/urgent fixes:
perf stat:
 
 - Keep the '/' event modifier separator in fallback, for example when
   fallbacking from 'cpu/cpu-cycles/' to user level only, where it should
   become 'cpu/cpu-cycles/u' and not 'cpu/cpu-cycles/:u' (Jiri Olsa)
 
 - Fix PMU events parsing rule, improving error reporting for
   invalid events (Jiri Olsa)
 
 - Disable write_backward and other event attributes for !group
   events in a group, fixing, for instance this group: '{cycles,msr/aperf/}:S'
   that has leader sampling (:S) and where just the 'cycles',
   the leader event, should have the write_backward attribute
   set, in this case it all fails because the PMU where 'msr/aperf/'
   lives doesn't accepts write_backward style sampling (Jiri Olsa)
 
 - Only fall back group read for leader (Kan Liang)
 
 - Fix core PMU alias list for X86 platform (Kan Liang)
 
 - Print out hint for mixed PMU group error (Kan Liang)
 
 - Fix duplicate PMU name for interval print (Kan Liang)
 
 Core:
 
 - Set main kernel end address properly when reading kernel and
   module maps (Namhyung Kim)
 
 perf mem:
 
 - Fix incorrect entries and add missing man options (Sangwon Hong)
 
 s/390:
 
 - Remove s390 specific strcmp_cpuid_cmp function (Thomas Richter)
 
 - Adapt 'perf test' case record+probe_libc_inet_pton.sh for s390
 
 - Fix s390 undefined record__auxtrace_init() return value in
   'perf record' (Thomas Richter)

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
