Subject: [PATCH 00/26] perf/core improvements and fixes
Hi Ingo,
Please consider pulling, this is on top of the perf-urgent-for-mingo
branch I sent you today.
- Arnaldo
The following changes since commit 3f416f22d1e21709a631189ba169f76fd267b374:
perf stat: Do not clean event's private stats (2016-01-26 11:15:11 -0300)
are available in the git repository at:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux.git tags/perf-core-for-mingo

perf cpumap: Auto initialize cpu__max_{node,cpu} (2016-01-26 16:08:36 -0300)
----------------------------------------------------------------
perf/core improvements and fixes:
User visible:
- Rename the "colors.code" ~/.perfconfig variable to "colors.jump_arrows",
as it controls just the that UI element in the annotate browser (Taeung Song)
- Avoid trying to read ELF symtabs from device files, noticed while doing
memory profiling work (Jiri Olsa)
- Improve context detection when offering options in the hists browser,
i.e. some options don't make sense when the browser is not working with
a perf.data file ('perf top' mode), only in 'perf report' mode, like
scripting (Namhyung Kim)
Infrastructure:
- Elliminate duplication in the hists browser filter functions, getting the
common part into a function that receives callbacks for filtering by
DSO, thread, etc (Namhyung Kim)
- Fix misleadingly indented assignment, found using
gcc6 -Wmisleading-indentation (Markus Trippelsdorf)
- Handle LLVM relocation oddities in libbpf, introducing a 'perf test' that
detects such problems and then fixing the problem, so that the test now
passes (Wang Nan)
- More improvements to the build infrastructure to allow reusing the
feature detection facilities (Wang Nan)
- Auto initialize the globals needed by cpu__max_{cpu,node}() routines
(Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
Documentation:
- Document the perf sysctls in Documentation/sysctl/kernel.txt (Ben Hutchings)
- Document a bunch more ~/.perfconfig knobs (Taeung Song)

----------------------------------------------------------------
Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo (3):
perf machine: Introduce machine__find_kernel_symbol_by_name()
perf test: Fixup aliases checking in the 'vmlinux matches kallsyms' test
perf cpumap: Auto initialize cpu__max_{node,cpu}
Ben Hutchings (1):
perf tools: Document the perf sysctls
Jiri Olsa (2):

Namhyung Kim (9):
perf hists: Remove parent filter check in DSO filter function
perf hists: Cleanup filtering functions
perf sort: Provide a way to find out if per-thread bucketing is in place
perf hists browser: Only 'Zoom into thread' only when sort order has 'pid'
perf hists browser: Only offer symbol scripting when a symbol is under the cursor
perf hists browser: Offer 'Zoom into DSO'/'Map details' only when sort order has 'dso'
perf hists browser: Be a bit more strict about presenting CPU socket zoom
perf hists browser: Offer non-symbol specific menu options for --sort without 'sym'
perf hists browser: Skip scripting when perf.data file not available
Taeung Song (6):
