We need to improve this to show the source code line numbers in the
annotation view, so one can go from that program block to the annotation view
and see those source code line numbers straight away.
auxtrace/Intel PT:
Adrian Hunter:
- Add support for AUX area sampling, requires new functionality that
will land in 5.5, its already in tip.
This includes kernel capability querying so that it fails gracefully
with older kernels, duimping aux area samples in 'perf report -D' and
'perf script'.
perf.data:
Alexey Budankov:
- Fix decompression of PERF_RECORD_COMPRESSED records.
core:
Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
- Use the 'dcacheline' cmp routine to find the right DSOs taking into
account the 'maj', 'min', 'ino' and 'ino_generation', that got moved
from 'struct map' to 'struct dso', where it belongs.
This further reduces the size of 'struct map', there is still more
work to do to maybe get it to max one cacheline.
libtraceevent:
Hewenliang:
- Fix memory leakage in copy_filter_type().
Sudip Mukherjee:
- Fix header installation.
perf parse:
Ian Rogers :
- Fix potential memory leak when handling tracepoint errors, found using
LLVM's libFuzzer.
perf probe:
Colin Ian King:
- Fix spelling mistake "addrees" -> "address".

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.
