Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo-20160718' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/core
Pull perf/core improvements and fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo: User visible changes: - Properly report when a function wildcard produces no matches in 'perf probe' (Masami Hiramatsu) - Balance opening and reading events in 'perf stat', which could cause it to get stuck trying to close invalid file descriptors (Mark Rutland) Infrastructure changes: - Copy more headers from the kernel, this time for headers that were just including the contents of its kernel counterparts, should help resolving the problems with linux-next, where some uapi related patches seem to be breaking tools/object/ build. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) Some more combing will be done, but at least it is possible to build perf out of tree, via a detached tarball (make help | grep perf), without including kernel files in its MANIFEST (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) - Fix smatch found errors that were not causing problems, but are mistakes nonetheless (Dan Carpenter) - Fix string vs. byte array resolving in the python script code (Jiri Olsa) Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
