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

Hi Ingo,

	Please consider pulling, way more to process in the next days, with the
patchkit for eBPF looking good, perf stat stuff from Jiri and some new hardware
stuff from Andi.

  perf tools: Fix build errors with mipsel-linux-uclibc compiler (2015-08-05 16:56:16 -0300)

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

New features:

- Deref sys_enter pointer args with contents from probe:vfs_getname, showing
  pathnames instead of pointers in many syscalls in 'perf trace' (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Make 'perf trace' write to stderr by default, just like 'strace' (Milian Woff)

Infrastructure:

- color_vfprintf() fixes (Andi Kleen, Jiri Olsa)

- Allow enabling/disabling PERF_SAMPLE_TIME per event (Kan Liang)

- Fix build errors with mipsel-linux-uclibc compiler (Petri Gynther)

Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@...hat.com>

----------------------------------------------------------------
Andi Kleen (1):
      perf tools: Do not include escape sequences in color_vfprintf return

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo (6):
      perf script: No tracepoints? Don't call libtraceevent.
      perf trace: Do not show syscall tracepoint filter in the --no-syscalls case
      perf trace: Remember if the vfs_getname tracepoint/kprobe is in place
      perf trace: Use a constant for the syscall formatting buffer
      perf trace: Deref sys_enter pointer args with contents from probe:vfs_getname
      perf trace: Use vfs_getname syscall arg beautifier in more syscalls

Jiri Olsa (1):
      perf tools: Remove trail argument to color vsprintf

Kan Liang (2):
      perf tools: Per-event time support
      perf tools: Refine parse/config callchain functions

Milian Wolff (1):
      perf trace: Write to stderr by default

Petri Gynther (1):
      perf tools: Fix build errors with mipsel-linux-uclibc compiler
