Linus Torvalds 2a987e6502 perf tools fixes for v5.16: 2nd batch
- Fix SMT detection fast read path on sysfs.
 
 - Fix memory leaks when processing feature headers in perf.data files.
 
 - Fix 'Simple expression parser' 'perf test' on arch without CPU die topology
   info, such as s/390.
 
 - Fix building perf with BUILD_BPF_SKEL=1.
 
 - Fix 'perf bench' by reverting "perf bench: Fix two memory leaks detected with ASan".
 
 - Fix itrace space allowed for new attributes in 'perf script'.
 
 - Fix the build feature detection fast path, that was always failing on systems
   with python3 development packages, speeding up the build.
 
 - Reset shadow counts before loading, fixing metrics using duration_time.
 
 - Sync more kernel headers changed by the new futex_waitv syscall: s390 and powerpc.

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.
