Pull perf/core fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo: - perf_mmap overwrite mode fixes/overhaul, prep work to get 'perf top' using it, making it bearable to use it in large core count systems such as Knights Landing/Mill Intel systems (Kan Liang) - s/390 now uses syscall.tbl, just like x86-64 to generate the syscall table id -> string tables used by 'perf trace' (Hendrik Brueckner) - Use strtoull() instead of home grown function (Andy Shevchenko) - Synchronize kernel ABI headers, v4.16-rc1 (Ingo Molnar) - Document missing 'perf data --force' option (Sangwon Hong) - Add perf vendor JSON metrics for ARM Cortex-A53 Processor (William Cohen) Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
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.
