Subject: [GIT PULL 00/12] perf/core improvements and fixes

Hi Ingo,

	Please consider pulling.

	 I'll continue processing patchsets by Jiri, Namhyung, David, Irina and
others tomorrow.

	I also have to rework the pagefaults patches, as the code it touches
changed lately, will add that NUMA node info you suggested.

- Arnaldo

  perf tools: Try to build Documentation when installing (2012-10-24 19:30:48 -0200)

----------------------------------------------------------------
perf/core improvements and fixes

. Align the 'Ok'/'FAILED!' test results in 'perf test.

. Support interrupted syscalls in 'trace'

. Add an event duration column and filter in 'trace'.

. There are references to the man pages in some tools, so try to build
  Documentation when installing, warning the user if that is not possible,
  from Borislav Petkov.

. Give user better message if precise is not supported, from David Ahern.

. Try to find cross-built objdump path by using the session environment
  information in the perf.data file header, from Irina Tirdea, original
  patch and idea by Namhyung Kim.

. Diplays more output on features check for make V=1, so that one can figure
  out what is happening by looking at gcc output, etc. From Jiri Olsa.

. Account the nr_entries in rblist properly, fix by Suzuki K. Poulose.
