Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux

I pushed a version of the crypto iov_iter bug fix that
Al Viro wrote, but Linus put in a different copy of the
same fix into his tree.

I then reverted my commit in net-next, and that's why we have a merge
when pulling in Linus's tree.

Merge branch 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
"Kernel side changes:

- AMD range breakpoints support:

Extend breakpoint tools and core to support address range through
perf event with initial backend support for AMD extended
breakpoints.

The syntax is:

perf record -e mem:addr/len:type

For example set write breakpoint from 0x1000 to 0x1200 (0x1000 + 512)

perf record -e mem:0x1000/512:w

- event throttling/rotating fixes

- various event group handling fixes, cleanups and general paranoia
code to be more robust against bugs in the future.

- kernel stack overhead fixes

User-visible tooling side changes:

- Show precise number of samples in at the end of a 'record' session,
if processing build ids, since we will then traverse the whole
perf.data file and see all the PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE records,
otherwise stop showing the previous off-base heuristicly counted
number of "samples" (Namhyung Kim).

- Support to read compressed module from build-id cache (Namhyung
Kim)

- Enable sampling loads and stores simultaneously in 'perf mem'
(Stephane Eranian)

- 'perf diff' output improvements (Namhyung Kim)

- Fix error reporting for evsel pgfault constructor (Arnaldo Carvalho
de Melo)

Tooling side infrastructure changes:

- Cache eh/debug frame offset for dwarf unwind (Namhyung Kim)

- Support parsing parameterized events (Cody P Schafer)

- Add support for IP address formats in libtraceevent (David Ahern)

Plus other misc fixes"

* 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (48 commits)

perf Documentation: Add event parameters

Event parameters are a basic way for partial events to be specified in
sysfs with per-event names given to the fields that need to be filled in
when using a particular event.

It is intended for supporting cases where the single 'cpu' parameter is
insufficient. For example, POWER 8 has events for physical
sockets/cores/cpus that are accessible from with virtual machines. To
keep using the single 'cpu' parameter we'd need to perform a mapping
between Linux's cpus and the physical machine's cpus (in this case Linux
is running under a hypervisor). This isn't possible because bindings
between our cpus and physical cpus may not be fixed, and we probably
won't have a "cpu" on each physical cpu.

Pull more perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
"A second (and last) round of late coming fixes and changes, almost all
of them in perf tooling:

User visible tooling changes:

- Add period data column and make it default in 'perf script' (Jiri
Olsa)

- Add a visual cue for toggle zeroing of samples in 'perf top'
(Taeung Song)

- Improve callchains when using libunwind (Namhyung Kim)

Tooling fixes and infrastructure changes:

- Fix for double free in 'perf stat' when using some specific invalid
command line combo (Yasser Shalabi)

- Fix off-by-one bugs in map->end handling (Stephane Eranian)

- Fix off-by-one bug in maps__find(), also related to map->end
handling (Namhyung Kim)

- Make struct symbol->end be the first addr after the symbol range,
to make it match the convention used for struct map->end. (Arnaldo
Carvalho de Melo)

- Fix perf_evlist__add_pollfd() error handling in 'perf kvm stat
live' (Jiri Olsa)

- Fix python test build by moving callchain_param to an object linked
into the python binding (Jiri Olsa)

- Document sysfs events/ interfaces (Cody P Schafer)

- Fix typos in perf/Documentation (Masanari Iida)

- Add missing 'struct option' forward declaration (Arnaldo Carvalho
de Melo)

- Add option to copy events when queuing for sorting across cpu
buffers and enable it for 'perf kvm stat live', to avoid having
events left in the queue pointing to the ring buffer be rewritten
in high volume sessions. (Alexander Yarygin, improving work done
by David Ahern):

- Do not include a struct hists per perf_evsel, untangling the
histogram code from perf_evsel, to pave the way for exporting a
minimalistic tools/lib/api/perf/ library usable by tools/perf and
initially by the rasd daemon being developed by Borislav Petkov,
Robert Richter and Jean Pihet. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Make perf_evlist__open(evlist, NULL, NULL), i.e. without cpu and
thread maps mean syswide monitoring, reducing the boilerplate for
tools that only want system wide mode. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Move exit stuff from perf_evsel__delete to perf_evsel__exit, delete
should be just a front end for exit + free (Arnaldo Carvalho de
Melo)

- Add support to new style format of kernel PMU event. (Kan Liang)
