perf record: Support custom vmlinux path (2015-12-14 13:04:12 -0300)
----------------------------------------------------------------
perf/core improvements and fixes:
User visible:
- Make command line options always available, even when they
depend on some feature being enabled, warning the user about
use of such options (Wang Nan)
- Support --vmlinux in perf record, useful, so far, for eBPF,
where we will set up events that will be used in the record
session (He Kuang)
- Automatically disable collecting branch flags and cycles with
--call-graph lbr. This allows avoiding a bunch of extra MSR
reads in the PMI on Skylake. (Andi Kleen)
Infrastructure:
- Dump the stack when a 'perf test -v ' entry segfaults, so far we
would have to run it under gdb with 'set follow-fork-mode child'
set to get a proper backtrace (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Initialize the refcnt in 'struct thread' to 1 and fixup its
users accordingly, so that we try to have the same refcount
model accross the perf codebase (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- More prep work for moving the subcmd infrastructure out of
tools/perf/ and into tools/lib/subcmd/ to be used by other
tools/ living utilities (Josh Poimboeuf)
- Fix 'perf test' hist testcases when kptr_restrict is on (Namhyung Kim)
