Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo-
20160415' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/core
Pull perf/core improvements from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
User visible changes:
- Wire the callchain unwinding "max-stack" now to 'perf script --max-stack',
allowing to limit the depth of callchains, possibly reducing processing
time (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Ditto for 'perf trace --max-stack' (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Introduce a --min-stack filter for 'perf trace', to show syscalls that
had a userspace callchain leading to it at least min-stack deep (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Make 'perf trace' work with multiple threads and the --duration filter,
i.e. do not print the start of an interrupted syscall followed by ...
to print interrupts from other threads, as we need to wait the sys_exit
syscall tracepoint to calculate the duration, duh. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
System wide --duration now works as expected:
[root@jouet ~]# trace --duration 100

- Now 'perf trace's --max-stack and --min-stack will automatically set
"--call-graph dwarf", if --call-graph is not present on the command line:
[root@jouet ~]# perf trace -e nanosleep --max-stack 3 usleep 1

[root@jouet ~]#
- Bump 'perf trace --mmap-pages' for root when using callchains and not
specifying --mmap-pages explicitely (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
Build fixes:
- The python binding object had missing symbols, to some refactoring
to fix that (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
