  most of it on the tooling side.

  Main changes:

   * ftrace enhancements and fixes from Steve Rostedt.

   * uprobes fixes, cleanups and preparation for the ARM port from Oleg
     Nesterov.

   * UAPI fixes, from David Howels - prepares the arch/x86 UAPI
     transition

   * Separate perf tests into multiple objects, one per test, from Jiri
     Olsa.

   * Make hardware event translations available in sysfs, from Jiri
     Olsa.

   * Fixes to /proc/pid/maps parsing, preparatory to supporting data
     maps, from Namhyung Kim

   * Implement ui_progress for GTK, from Namhyung Kim

   * Add framework for automated perf_event_attr tests, where tools with
     different command line options will be run from a 'perf test', via
     python glue, and the perf syscall will be intercepted to verify
     that the perf_event_attr fields set by the tool are those expected,
     from Jiri Olsa

   * Add a 'link' method for hists, so that we can have the leader with
     buckets for all the entries in all the hists.  This new method is
     now used in the default 'diff' output, making the sum of the
     'baseline' column be 100%, eliminating blind spots.

   * libtraceevent fixes for compiler warnings trying to make perf it
     build on some distros, like fedora 14, 32-bit, some of the warnings
     really pointed to real bugs.

   * Add a browser for 'perf script' and make it available from the
     report and annotate browsers.  It does filtering to find the
     scripts that handle events found in the perf.data file used.  From
     Feng Tang

   * perf inject changes to allow showing where a task sleeps, from
     Andrew Vagin.

   * Makefile improvements from Namhyung Kim.

   * Add --pre and --post command hooks in 'stat', from Peter Zijlstra.

   * Don't stop synthesizing threads when one vanishes, this is for the
     existing threads when we start a tool like trace.

   * Use sched:sched_stat_runtime to provide a thread summary, this
     produces the same output as the 'trace summary' subcommand of
     tglx's original "trace" tool.

   * Support interrupted syscalls in 'trace'

   * Add an event duration column and filter in 'trace'.

   * There are references to the man pages in some tools, so try to
     build Documentation when installing, warning the user if that is
     not possible, from Borislav Petkov.

   * Give user better message if precise is not supported, from David
     Ahern.

   * Try to find cross-built objdump path by using the session
     environment information in the perf.data file header, from Irina
     Tirdea, original patch and idea by Namhyung Kim.

   * Diplays more output on features check for make V=1, so that one can
     figure out what is happening by looking at gcc output, etc.  From
     Jiri Olsa.

   * Add on_exit implementation for systems without one, e.g.  Android,
     from Bernhard Rosenkraenzer.

   * Only process events for vcpus of interest, helps handling large
     number of events, from David Ahern.

   * Cross compilation fixes for Android, from Irina Tirdea.

   * Add documentation on compiling for Android, from Irina Tirdea.

   * perf diff improvements from Jiri Olsa.

   * Target (task/user/cpu/syswide) handling improvements, from Namhyung
     Kim.

   * Add support in 'trace' for tracing workload given by command line,
     from Namhyung Kim.

   * ... and much more."

+How to compile perf for Android
+=========================================
+
+I. Set the Android NDK environment
+------------------------------------------------
+
+(a). Use the Android NDK
+------------------------------------------------
+1. You need to download and install the Android Native Development Kit (NDK).
+Set the NDK variable to point to the path where you installed the NDK:
+  export NDK=/path/to/android-ndk
+
+2. Set cross-compiling environment variables for NDK toolchain and sysroot.
+For arm:
+  export NDK_TOOLCHAIN=${NDK}/toolchains/arm-linux-androideabi-4.6/prebuilt/linux-x86/bin/arm-linux-androideabi-
+  export NDK_SYSROOT=${NDK}/platforms/android-9/arch-arm
+For x86:
+  export NDK_TOOLCHAIN=${NDK}/toolchains/x86-4.6/prebuilt/linux-x86/bin/i686-linux-android-
+  export NDK_SYSROOT=${NDK}/platforms/android-9/arch-x86
+
+This method is not working for Android NDK versions up to Revision 8b.
+perf uses some bionic enhancements that are not included in these NDK versions.
+You can use method (b) described below instead.
+
+(b). Use the Android source tree
+-----------------------------------------------
+1. Download the master branch of the Android source tree.
+Set the environment for the target you want using:
+  source build/envsetup.sh
+  lunch
+
+2. Build your own NDK sysroot to contain latest bionic changes and set the
+NDK sysroot environment variable.
+  cd ${ANDROID_BUILD_TOP}/ndk
+For arm:
+  ./build/tools/build-ndk-sysroot.sh --abi=arm
+  export NDK_SYSROOT=${ANDROID_BUILD_TOP}/ndk/build/platforms/android-3/arch-arm
+For x86:
+  ./build/tools/build-ndk-sysroot.sh --abi=x86
+  export NDK_SYSROOT=${ANDROID_BUILD_TOP}/ndk/build/platforms/android-3/arch-x86
+
+3. Set the NDK toolchain environment variable.
+For arm:
+  export NDK_TOOLCHAIN=${ANDROID_TOOLCHAIN}/arm-linux-androideabi-
+For x86:
+  export NDK_TOOLCHAIN=${ANDROID_TOOLCHAIN}/i686-linux-android-
+
+II. Compile perf for Android
+------------------------------------------------
+You need to run make with the NDK toolchain and sysroot defined above:
+For arm:
+  make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=${NDK_TOOLCHAIN} CFLAGS="--sysroot=${NDK_SYSROOT}"
+For x86:
+  make ARCH=x86 CROSS_COMPILE=${NDK_TOOLCHAIN} CFLAGS="--sysroot=${NDK_SYSROOT}"
+
+III. Install perf
+-----------------------------------------------
+You need to connect to your Android device/emulator using adb.
+Install perf using:
+  adb push perf /data/perf
+
+If you also want to use perf-archive you need busybox tools for Android.
+For installing perf-archive, you first need to replace #!/bin/bash with #!/system/bin/sh:
+  sed 's/#!\/bin\/bash/#!\/system\/bin\/sh/g' perf-archive >> /tmp/perf-archive
+  chmod +x /tmp/perf-archive
+  adb push /tmp/perf-archive /data/perf-archive
+
+IV. Environment settings for running perf
+------------------------------------------------
+Some perf features need environment variables to run properly.
+You need to set these before running perf on the target:
+  adb shell
+  # PERF_PAGER=cat
+
+IV. Run perf
+------------------------------------------------
+Run perf on your device/emulator to which you previously connected using adb:
+  # ./data/perf
