report/script/trace/top:
Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
- Allow specifying marker events demarcating when to consider the other events,
i.e. one now can state something like:
# perf probe kernel_function
# perf record -e cycles,probe:kernel_function
And then, in 'perf script' or 'perf report' say:
# perf report --switch-on=probe:kernel_function
And then the cycles event samples will be considered only after we
find the first probe:kernel_function event.
There is also --switch-off=event, to make it stop considering events
out of some window, say to avoid some winding down of a workload.
The same can be done with the "live mode" tools: 'perf top' and 'perf trace'.
There are examples in the cset comments showing how to use it with
SDT events in things like 'systemtap', that have those tracepoint-like
events for the start/end of passes, etc.
Another example involves selecting scheduler events + entry/exit of
a syscall, using the syscalls tracepoints, one can then see the
scheduler events that take place while that syscall is being processed.
In the future this should be possible in record/top/trace via eBPF
where the perf tools would hook into the marker events and enable events
put in place but not enabled when the on/off conditions are the desired
ones, reducing the amount of events sampled, but this userspace only
solution should be good enough for many scenarios.

Haiyan Song:
- Add Tremontx event file v1.02.
unwind:
John Keeping:
- Fix callchain unwinding when tid != pid, that was working only for the
thread group leader.

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.
