- Fix segfault when trying to process tracepoints present in a perf.data file
and not linked with libtraceevent.
- Fix build on uClibc systems by adding missing sys/types.h include, that was
being obtained indirectly which stopped being the case when tools/lib/traceevent
was removed.
- Don't show commands in 'perf help' that depend on linking with libtraceevent
when not building with that library, which is now a possibility since we
no longer ship a copy in tools/lib/traceevent.
- Fix failure in 'perf test' entry testing the combination of 'perf probe' user
space function + 'perf record' + 'perf script' where it expects a backtrace
leading to glibc's inet_pton() from 'ping' that now happens more than once with
glibc 2.35 for IPv6 addreses.
- Fix for the inet_pton perf test on s/390 where 'text_to_binary_address' now
appears on the backtrace.
- Fix build error on riscv due to missing header for 'struct perf_sample'.
- Fix 'make -C tools perf_install' install variant by not propagating the 'subdir'
to submakes for the 'install_headers' targets.
- Fix handling of unsupported cgroup events when using BPF counters in 'perf stat'.
- Count all cgroups, not just the last one when using 'perf stat
--for-each-cgroup' with --bpf-counters. This makes the output using BPF
counters match the output without using it, which was the intention all along,
the output should be the same using --bpf-counters or not.
- Fix 'perf lock contention' core dump related to not finding the
"__sched_text_end" symbol on s/390.
- Fix build failure when HEAD is signed: exclude the signature from the version
string.
- Add missing closedir() calls to in perf_data__open_dir(), plugging a fd leak.
