- Update to the way irqs and preemption is tracked via the trace event PC field
- Fix handling of unregistering event failing due to allocate memory.
This is only triggered by failure injection, as it is pretty much guaranteed
to have less than a page allocation succeed.
- Do not show the useless "filter" or "enable" files for the "ftrace" trace
system, as they have no effect on doing anything.
- Add a warning if kprobes are registered more than once.
- Synthetic events now have their fields parsed by semicolons.
Old formats without semicolons will still work, but new features will
require them.
- New option to allow trace events to show %p without hashing in trace file.
The trace file can only be read by root, and reading the raw event buffer
did not have any pointers hashed, so this does not expose anything new.
- New directory in tools called tools/tracing, where a new tool that reads
sequential latency reports from the ftrace latency tracers.
- Other minor fixes and cleanups.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
