Hi Ingo,

	Please consider pulling,

- Arnaldo

Test results at the end of this message, as usual.

The following changes since commit f2029b1e47b607619d1dd2cb0bbb77f64ec6b7c2:

  perf/x86/intel: Add Kaby Lake support (2017-02-11 21:28:23 +0100)

for you to fetch changes up to a734fb5d60067a73dd7099a58756847c07f9cd68:

  samples/bpf: Reset global variables (2017-02-13 17:22:53 -0300)

----------------------------------------------------------------
perf/core improvements and fixes:

New feature:

- Introduce the 'delta-abs' 'perf diff' compute method, that orders the
  histogram entries by the absolute value of the percentage delta for a
  function in two perf.data files, i.e. the functions that changed the
  most (increase or decrease in samples) comes first (Namhyung Kim)

User visible:

- Improve message about tweaking the kernel.perf_event_paranoid setting,
  telling how to make the change permanent by editing /etc/sysctl.conf
  (Ingo Molnar)

Infrastructure:

- Introduce linux/compiler-gcc.h as a counterpart to the kernel's,
  initially containing the definition of __fallthrough, more to
  come (__maybe_unused, etc) (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Fixes for problems uncovered by building tools/perf with clang, such
  as always true tests of arrays against NULL and variables that sometimes
  were used without being initialized (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo, Steven Rostedt)

- Before loading a new ELF, clear global variables set by the
  samples/bpf loader (Mickaël Salaün)

- Ignore already processed ELF sections in the samples/bpf
  loader (Mickaël Salaün)

- Fix compile error in the scripting code with some perl5
  versions (Wang YanQing)

Test results:

The first ones are container (docker) based builds of tools/perf with and
without libelf support, objtool where it is supported and samples/bpf/, ditto.

Several are cross builds, the ones with -x-ARCH, and the android one, and those
may not have all the features built, due to lack of multi-arch devel packages,
available and being used so far on just a few, like
debian:experimental-x-{arm64,mipsel}.

The 'perf test' one will perform a variety of tests exercising
tools/perf/util/, tools/lib/{bpf,traceevent,etc}, as well as run perf commands
with a variety of command line event specifications to then intercept the
sys_perf_event syscall to check that the perf_event_attr fields are set up as
expected, among a variety of other unit tests.

Then there is the 'make -C tools/perf build-test' ones, that build tools/perf/
with a variety of feature sets, exercising the build with an incomplete set of
features as well as with a complete one. It is planned to have it run on each
of the containers mentioned above, using some container orchestration
infrastructure. Get in contact if interested in helping having this in place.

#1580187 — [PATCH 04/15] perf diff: Add diff.compute config option

FromArnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@kernel.org>
Date2017-02-14 02:20 +0100
Subject[PATCH 04/15] perf diff: Add diff.compute config option
Message-ID<tazWH-3d2-27@gated-at.bofh.it>
In reply to#1580186
From: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org>

The diff.compute config variable is to set the default compute method of
perf diff command (-c option).  Possible values 'delta' (default),
'delta-abs', 'ratio' and 'wdiff'.

To match the kernel headers structure, setting up things that are
specific to gcc or to some specific version of gcc.

It gets included by linux/compiler.h when gcc is the compiler being
used.

A undefined value was being used for the OLD_RING_BUFFER_TYPE_TIME_STAMP
case entry, as the 'length' variable was not being initialized, fix it.

Caught by the reporter when building tools/perf/ using clang, which emmitted
this warning:

#1580193 — [PATCH 09/15] perf evsel: Inform how to make a sysctl setting permanent

Subject[PATCH 09/15] perf evsel: Inform how to make a sysctl setting permanent
Message-ID<tazWH-3d2-37@gated-at.bofh.it>
In reply to#1580186
From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

When a tool can't open counters due to the kernel.perf_event_paranoit
sysctl setting, we inform how to tweak it to allow the operation to
succeed, in addition to that, suggest setting /etc/sysctl.conf to
make the setting permanent.
