Linus Torvalds 40c843218f perf tools changes for v5.17: 2nd batch
- Fix printing 'phys_addr' in 'perf script'.
 
 - Fix failure to add events with 'perf probe' in ppc64 due to not removing
   leading dot (ppc64 ABIv1).
 
 - Fix cpu_map__item() python binding building.
 
 - Support event alias in form foo-bar-baz, add pmu-events and parse-event tests
   for it.
 
 - No need to setup affinities when starting a workload or attaching to a pid.
 
 - Use path__join() to compose a path instead of ad-hoc snprintf() equivalent.
 
 - Override attr->sample_period for non-libpfm4 events.
 
 - Use libperf cpumap APIs instead of accessing the internal state directly.
 
 - Sync x86 arch prctl headers and files changed by the new
   set_mempolicy_home_node syscall with the kernel sources.
 
 - Remove duplicate include in cpumap.h.
 
 - Remove redundant err variable.

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.
