perf core improvements and fixes:

New features: - Support exporting Intel PT data to sqlite3 with python perf scripts, this is in addition to the postgresql support that was already there (Adrian Hunter) Infrastructure: - Handle perf tool builds with less features in perf shell tests, such as those with NO_LIBDWARF=1 or even without 'perf probe' (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) - Replace '|&' with '2>&1 |' to work with more shells in the just introduced perf test shell harness (Kim Phillips) Architecture related fixes: - Fix endianness problem when loading parameters in the BPF prologue generated by perf, noticed using 'perf test BPF' in s390x systems (Wang Nan, Thomas Richter) Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAABCAAdFiEELb9bqkb7Te0zijNb1lAW81NSqkAFAlmUoiwACgkQ1lAW81NS qkA+Ig/+PO2vXC+9Vs1PMbZNXbS6X47QtnyGl27XrP4eG5z0ks5QcIGpYPus98hP VVwQcQn54QRNlsexkrub+OFhRgkTUSlcaEXZghFJ0aoeT0oFCbSnj+gMDY4K1LLp ATRVDvxVQ1p8bmOJN7ywBBg/ASsjKNJY6COt1TyGfFPThKkNZl8m6e+DDK2+CCS+ dUXye/rYqA2qJwMOYaT/GxJ7agASoOQTwBESNNZzPMPUc6+UGWs2Vwfu6OzXie3a bIpzl76vm52surrwnIbA0DR/2stFvlzVJWYJOanUfb61ADrCjh2YzoFTBXH9lvCU SuUTVz8fGJH/39mo7+U7Y3JNzvskqXKtLQpk85hJ5jgosFwQeh6NzE4b7YIzRIM9 MFkA2/xdudQa67oYsQUNAA0L0h2Dui1K3oH1ZFZuxoBiYgj9z52wMazMg1R9GQR+ 7TYw4ErbZQumgw56ZQdtuDJRnlAQsIGlVYwUdG4tE2NGTZoCXQIQjME/wNO46HU3 RizfHsjOOS4kbBNWcjd32mvBNUJIfpWb9DPhjrS5COF3I+Q7mbxRA1SoUemA/+vu aJBqH7toag9g2+RNu6hWboOdgXc0O2ego9kUOy0NQPQKpZt0OOPkOEXkYzR6jmLU e/cm6Lq1En44lJZAUsYkZ/RxqVN3cTxxEYz5SnEqUPiomkFKhTA= =I7uv -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo-4.14-20170816' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/core Pull perf core improvements and fixes: New features: - Support exporting Intel PT data to sqlite3 with python perf scripts, this is in addition to the postgresql support that was already there (Adrian Hunter) Infrastructure changes: - Handle perf tool builds with less features in perf shell tests, such as those with NO_LIBDWARF=1 or even without 'perf probe' (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) - Replace '|&' with '2>&1 |' to work with more shells in the just introduced perf test shell harness (Kim Phillips) Architecture related fixes: - Fix endianness problem when loading parameters in the BPF prologue generated by perf, noticed using 'perf test BPF' in s390x systems (Wang Nan, Thomas Richter) Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
