Pull perf tool fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo: - Fix 'perf script' decoding of Intel PT traces for abort handling and sample instruction bytes. - Add missing PERF_IP_FLAG_CHARS for VM-Entry and VM-Exit to Intel PT 'perf script' decoder. - Fixes for the python based Intel PT trace viewer GUI. - Sync UAPI copies (unwire quotactl_path, some comment fixes). - Fix handling of missing kernel software events, such as the recently added 'cgroup-switches', and add the trivial glue for it in the tooling side, since it was added in this merge window. - Add missing initialization of zstd_data in 'perf buildid-list', detected with valgrind's memcheck. - Remove needless event enable/disable when all events uses BPF. - Fix libpfm4 support (63) test error for nested event groups. * tag 'perf-tools-fixes-for-v5.13-2021-05-24' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux: perf stat: Skip evlist__[enable|disable] when all events uses BPF perf script: Add missing PERF_IP_FLAG_CHARS for VM-Entry and VM-Exit perf scripts python: exported-sql-viewer.py: Fix warning display perf scripts python: exported-sql-viewer.py: Fix Array TypeError perf scripts python: exported-sql-viewer.py: Fix copy to clipboard from Top Calls by elapsed Time report tools headers UAPI: Sync files changed by the quotactl_path unwiring tools headers UAPI: Sync linux/perf_event.h with the kernel sources tools headers UAPI: Sync linux/fs.h with the kernel sources perf parse-events: Check if the software events array slots are populated perf tools: Add 'cgroup-switches' software event perf intel-pt: Remove redundant setting of ptq->insn_len perf intel-pt: Fix sample instruction bytes perf intel-pt: Fix transaction abort handling perf test: Fix libpfm4 support (63) test error for nested event groups tools arch kvm: Sync kvm headers with the kernel sources perf buildid-list: Initialize zstd_data
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.
