  perf record: Synthesize COMM event for a command line workload (2015-09-22 22:43:12 -0300)

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

User visible:

- Fix a segfault in 'perf probe' when removing uprobe events (Masami Hiramatsu)

- Synthesize COMM event for workloads started from the command line in 'perf
  record' so that we can have the pid->comm mapping before we get the real
  PERF_RECORD_COMM switching from perf to the workload (Namhyung Kim)

- Fix build tools/vm/ due to removal of tools/lib/api/fs/debugfs.h
  (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

Developer stuff:

- Fix the make tarball targets by including the recently added err.h header in
  the perf MANIFEST file (Jiri Olsa)

- Don't assume that the event parser returns a non empty evlist (Wang Nan)

- Add way to disambiguate feature detection state files, needed to use
  tools/build feature detection for multiple components in a single O= output
  dir, which will be the case with tools/perf/ and tools/lib/bpf/
  (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Fixup FEATURE_{TESTS,DISPLAY} inversion in tools/lib/bpf/ (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

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

----------------------------------------------------------------
Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo (5):
      tools build: Fixup feature detection display function name
      tools lib bpf: Fix up FEATURE_{TESTS,DISPLAY} usage
      tools build: Allow setting the feature detection user
      tools lib bpf: Use FEATURE_USER to allow building in the same dir as perf
      tools vm: Fix build due to removal of tools/lib/api/fs/debugfs.h

Jiri Olsa (1):
      perf tools: Add include/err.h into MANIFEST
