      Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo' 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:
      
       * Convert the trace builtins to use the growing evsel/evlist
         tracepoint infrastructure, removing several open coded constructs
         like switch like series of strcmp to dispatch events, etc.
         Basically what had already been showcased in 'perf sched'.
      
       * Add evsel constructor for tracepoints, that uses libtraceevent
         just to parse the /format events file, use it in a new 'perf test'
         to make sure the libtraceevent format parsing regressions can
         be more readily caught.
      
       * Some strange errors were happening in some builds, but not on the
         next, reported by several people, problem was some parser related
         files, generated during the build, didn't had proper make deps,
         fix from Eric Sandeen.
      
       * Fix some compiling errors on 32-bit, from Feng Tang.
      
       * Don't use sscanf extension %as, not available on bionic, reimplementation
         by Irina Tirdea.
      
       * Fix bfd.h/libbfd detection with recent binutils, from Markus Trippelsdorf.
      
       * Introduce struct and cache information about the environment where a
         perf.data file was captured, from Namhyung Kim.
      
       * Fix several error paths in libtraceevent, from Namhyung Kim.
      
         Print event causing perf_event_open() to fail in 'perf record',
         from Stephane Eranian.
      
       * New 'kvm' analysis tool, from Xiao Guangrong.

      trace: Move trace event enable from fs_initcall to core_initcall · 8781915a
      Ezequiel Garcia authored
      This patch splits trace event initialization in two stages:
       * ftrace enable
       * sysfs event entry creation
      
      This allows to capture trace events from an earlier point
      by using 'trace_event' kernel parameter and is important
      to trace boot-up allocations.
      
      Note that, in order to enable events at core_initcall,
      it's necessary to move init_ftrace_syscalls() from
      core_initcall to early_initcall.
