Merge branch 'perf-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull perf fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"A pile of perf related fixes:
Kernel:
- Fix SLOTS PEBS event constraints for Icelake CPUs
- Add the missing mask bit to allow counting hardware generated
prefetches on L3 for Icelake CPUs
- Make the test for hypervisor platforms more accurate (as far as
possible)
- Handle PMUs correctly which override event->cpu
- Yet another missing fallthrough annotation
Tools:
perf.data:
- Fix loading of compressed data split across adjacent records
- Fix buffer size setting for processing CPU topology perf.data
header.
perf stat:
- Fix segfault for event group in repeat mode
- Always separate "stalled cycles per insn" line, it was being
appended to the "instructions" line.
perf script:
- Fix --max-blocks man page description.
- Improve man page description of metrics.
- Fix off by one in brstackinsn IPC computation.
perf probe:
- Avoid calling freeing routine multiple times for same pointer.
perf build:
- Do not use -Wshadow on gcc < 4.8, avoiding too strict warnings
treated as errors, breaking the build"
