perf script:
 
   Andi Kleen:
 
     - Fix recovery from LBR/binary mismatch in the "brstackinsn" --field.
 
 perf annotate:
 
   Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
 
   - Propagate errors so that meaningful messages can be presented to the
     user in case of problems.
 
 perf map:
 
   Steve MacLean:
 
   - Fix handling of maps partially overlapped, resolving symbols in the
     ranges not replaced by new mmaps.
 
 perf tests:
 
   Ian Rogers:
 
   - Use raise() instead of NULL derefs to avoid causing a SIGILL rather than a
     SIGSEGV for optimized builds that turn NULL derefs into ud2 instructions.
 
 perf LLVM:
 
   Ian Rogers:
 
   - Don't access out-of-scope array.
 
 perf inject:
 
   Steve MacLean:
 
   - Fix JIT_CODE_MOVE filename, that was having a u64 truncaded into a 32-bit
     snprintf format and also a missing ".so" suffix in another case.
 
 libsubcmd:
 
   Ian Rogers:
 
   - Make _FORTIFY_SOURCE defines dependent on the feature, avoiding
     false positives with with memory sanitizers such as LLVM's ASan.

   Andi Kleen:
 
   - Fix period for Intel fixed counters.

   Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
 
   - Sync headers with the kernel, catching new usbdevfs ioctls and

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.
