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 mostly consist of work on x86 PMU drivers:

   - x86 Intel PT (hardware CPU tracer) improvements (Alexander
     Shishkin)

   - x86 Intel CQM (cache quality monitoring) improvements (Thomas
     Gleixner)

   - x86 Intel PEBSv3 support (Peter Zijlstra)

   - x86 Intel PEBS interrupt batching support for lower overhead
     sampling (Zheng Yan, Kan Liang)

   - x86 PMU scheduler fixes and improvements (Peter Zijlstra)

  There's too many tooling improvements to list them all - here are a
  few select highlights:

  'perf bench':

      - Introduce new 'perf bench futex' benchmark: 'wake-parallel', to
        measure parallel waker threads generating contention for kernel
        locks (hb->lock). (Davidlohr Bueso)

  'perf top', 'perf report':

      - Allow disabling/enabling events dynamicaly in 'perf top':
        a 'perf top' session can instantly become a 'perf report'
        one, i.e. going from dynamic analysis to a static one,
        returning to a dynamic one is possible, to toogle the
        modes, just press 'f' to 'freeze/unfreeze' the sampling. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

      - Make Ctrl-C stop processing on TUI, allowing interrupting the load of big
        perf.data files (Namhyung Kim)

  'perf probe': (Masami Hiramatsu)

      - Support glob wildcards for function name
      - Support $params special probe argument: Collect all function arguments
      - Make --line checks validate C-style function name.
      - Add --no-inlines option to avoid searching inline functions
      - Greatly speed up 'perf probe --list' by caching debuginfo.
      - Improve --filter support for 'perf probe', allowing using its arguments
        on other commands, as --add, --del, etc.

  'perf sched':

      - Add option in 'perf sched' to merge like comms to lat output (Josef Bacik)

  Plus tons of infrastructure work - in particular preparation for
  upcoming threaded perf report support, but also lots of other work -
  and fixes and other improvements.  See (much) more details in the
  shortlog and in the git log"
