Linus Torvalds 590627f755 Merge branch 'perf-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull perf tooling fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
 "Core libraries:
   - Fix max perf_event_attr.precise_ip detection.
   - Fix parser error for uncore event alias
   - Fixup ordering of kernel maps after obtaining the main kernel map
     address.

  Intel PT:
   - Fix TSC slip where A TSC packet can slip past MTC packets so that
     the timestamp appears to go backwards.
   - Fixes for exported-sql-viewer GUI conversion to python3.

  ARM coresight:
   - Fix the build by adding a missing case value for enumeration value
     introduced in newer library, that now is the required one.

  tool headers:
   - Syncronize kernel headers with the kernel, getting new io_uring and
     pidfd_send_signal syscalls so that 'perf trace' can handle them"

README

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.
