Subject: [GIT PULL 0/7] perf/core improvements

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@...nel.org>

Hi Ingo,

	Getting back at pushing some stuff, should not conflict with Jiri's
perf/core and was branched from tip/perf/core.

	Please let me know if you find any issue,

- Arnaldo

  perf timechart: Reflow documentation (2014-06-10 10:03:18 -0300)

----------------------------------------------------------------
perf/core improvements:

User visible:

. Improve 'perf probe' error messages, moving some diagnostic messages to
  only appear in --verbose mode and fixing up some error reporting related
  to variables and struct members. (Masami Hiramatsu)

. Reflow 'perf timechart' man page. (Stanislav Fomichev)

Developer stuff:

. Be more precise when reporting missing libraries in a static tool build.
  (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

. Show error messages from the multiple make invoked from 'make build-test'.
  (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
