Ingo Molnar e3a6a62400 perf/core improvements and fixes:
User visible:
 
 - Allow suppressing 'uncore_' when specifying PMU events (Andi Kleen)
 
 - Collapse identically named PMU events in 'perf stat', allow
   not merging it via --no-merge (Andi Kleen)
 
 Fixes:
 
 - Use more precise 'grep -v' to suppress unwanted 'objdump -dS'
   disassembly output to not ditch line:number lines needed by
   'perf annotate --print-lines' logic (Taeung Song)
 
 Infrastructure:
 
 - SDT (Statically Defined Tracing)/uprobes_events arguments improvements
   (Alexis Berlemont, Ravi Bangoria)
 
 - Improvements for the handling of JSON described vendor events,
   including having an expression parser to calculate metrics
   from multiple vendor events (Andi Kleen)
 
 - Update Intel JSON vendor event files (Andi Kleen)
 
 - Restore error reporting in 'perf probe -d' when none of the events
   requested to be deleted exist. (Kefeng Wang)
 
 - Bump MAX_CMDLEN in 'perf probe' to match what the kernel accepts
   (Ravi Bangoria)

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
