New features:
- Improvements for the flamegraph python script, including:
- Display perf.data header
- Display PIDs of user stacks
- Added option to change color scheme
- Default to blue/green color scheme to improve accessibility
- Correctly identify kernel stacks when debuginfo is available
- Improvements for 'perf bench futex':
- Add --mlockall parameter
- Add --broadcast and --pi to the 'requeue' sub benchmark
- Add support for PMU aliases.
- Introduce an ARM Coresight ETE decoder.
- Add a 'perf bench' entry for evlist open/close operations, to help quantify
improvements with multithreading 'perf record'.
- Allow reporting the [un]throttle PERF_RECORD_ meta event in 'perf script's
python scripting.
- Add a 'perf test' entry for PMU aliases.
- Add a 'perf test' entry for 'perf record/perf report/perf script' pipe mode.
Fixes:
- perf script dlfilter (API for filtering via dynamically loaded shared object
introduced in v5.14) fixes and a 'perf test' entry for it.
- Fix get_current_dir_name() compilation on Android.
- Fix issues with asciidoc and double dashes uses.
- Fix memory leaks in the BTF handling code.
- Fix leftover problems in the Documentation from the infrastructure originally
lifted from the git codebase.
- Fix *probe_vfs_getname.sh 'perf test' failures.
- Handle fd gaps in 'perf test's test__dso_data_reopen().
- Make sure to show disasembly warnings for 'perf annotate --stdio'.
- Fix output from pipe to file and vice-versa in 'perf record/report/script'.
- Correct 'perf data -h' output.
- Fix wrong comm in system-wide mode with 'perf record --delay'.
- Do not allow --for-each-cgroup without cpu in 'perf stat'
- Make 'perf test --skip' work on shell tests.
- Fix libperf's verbose printing.
Misc improvements:
- Preparatory patches for multithreading varios 'perf record' phases
(synthesizing, opening, recording, etc).
- Add sparse context/locking annotations in compiler-types.h, also to help with
the multithreading effort.
- Optimize the generation of the arch specific erno tables used in 'perf trace'.
- Optimize libperf's perf_cpu_map__max().
- Improve ARM's CoreSight warnings.
- Report collisions in AUX records.
- Improve warnings for the LLVM 'perf test' entry.
- Improve the PMU events 'perf test' codebase.
- perf test: Do not compare overheads in the zstd comp test
- Better support annotation on ARM.
- Update 'perf trace's cmd string table to decode sys_bpf() first arg.
Vendor events:
- Add JSON events and metrics for Intel's Ice Lake, Tiger Lake and Elhart Lake.
- Update JSON eventsand metrics for Intel's Cascade Lake and Sky Lake servers.
Hardware tracing:
- Improvements for the ARM hardware tracing auxtrace support.
