 "The perf crowd presents:

  Kernel updates:

   - Removal of jprobes

   - Cleanup and consolidatation the handling of kprobes

   - Cleanup and consolidation of hardware breakpoints

   - The usual pile of fixes and updates to PMUs and event descriptors

  Tooling updates:

   - Updates and improvements all over the place. Nothing outstanding,
     just the (good) boring incremental grump work"

README

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
