Linux kernel source tree
Allow use of the trace_pstate_sample trace function when the intel_pstate driver is in passive mode. Since the core_busy and scaled_busy fields are not used, and it might be desirable to know which path through the driver was used, either intel_cpufreq_target or intel_cpufreq_fast_switch, re-task the core_busy field as a flag indicator. The user can then use the intel_pstate_tracer.py utility to summarize and plot the trace. Note: The core_busy feild still goes by that name in include/trace/events/power.h and within the intel_pstate_tracer.py script and csv file headers, but it is graphed as "performance", and called core_avg_perf now in the intel_pstate driver. Sometimes, in passive mode, the driver is not called for many tens or even hundreds of seconds. The user needs to understand, and not be confused by, this limitation.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
