Merge branch 'perf-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar: "Mostly tooling and PMU driver fixes, but also a number of late updates such as the reworking of the call-chain size limiting logic to make call-graph recording more robust, plus tooling side changes for the new 'backwards ring-buffer' extension to the perf ring-buffer" * 'perf-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (34 commits) perf record: Read from backward ring buffer perf record: Rename variable to make code clear perf record: Prevent reading invalid data in record__mmap_read perf evlist: Add API to pause/resume perf trace: Use the ptr->name beautifier as default for "filename" args perf trace: Use the fd->name beautifier as default for "fd" args perf report: Add srcline_from/to branch sort keys perf evsel: Record fd into perf_mmap perf evsel: Add overwrite attribute and check write_backward perf tools: Set buildid dir under symfs when --symfs is provided perf trace: Only auto set call-graph to "dwarf" when syscalls are being traced perf annotate: Sort list of recognised instructions perf annotate: Fix identification of ARM blt and bls instructions perf tools: Fix usage of max_stack sysctl perf callchain: Stop validating callchains by the max_stack sysctl perf trace: Fix exit_group() formatting perf top: Use machine->kptr_restrict_warned perf trace: Warn when trying to resolve kernel addresses with kptr_restrict=1 perf machine: Do not bail out if not managing to read ref reloc symbol perf/x86/intel/p4: Trival indentation fix, remove space ...
