- 'perf c2c' now supports ARM64, adjust its output to cope with differences with what is in x86_64. Now go find false sharing on ARM64 (at least Neoverse) as well! - Refactor the JSON processing, making the output more compact and thus reducing the size of the resulting perf binary. - Improvements for 'perf offcpu' profiling, including tracking child processes. - Update Intel JSON metrics and events files for broadwellde, broadwellx, cascadelakex, haswellx, icelakex, ivytown, jaketown, knightslanding, sapphirerapids, skylakex and snowridgex. - Add 'perf stat' JSON output and a 'perf test' entry for it. - Ignore memfd and anonymous mmap events if jitdump present. - Refactor 'perf test' shell tests allowing subdirs. - Fix an error handling path in 'parse_perf_probe_command()' - Fixes for the guest Intel PT tracing patchkit in the 1st batch of this merge window. - Print debuginfod queries if -v option is used, to explain delays in processing when debuginfo servers are enabled to fetch DSOs with richer symbol tables. - Improve error message for 'perf record -p not_existing_pid' - Fix openssl and libbpf feature detection. - Add PMU pai_crypto event description for IBM z16 on 'perf list'. - Fix typos and duplicated words on comments in various places.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
