Kan Liang ecdad24d7a perf tools: Use scandir() to replace readdir()
In perf_event__synthesize_threads() perf goes through all proc files
serially by readdir.

scandir() does a snapshoot of /proc, which is multithreading friendly.

It's possible that some threads which are added during event synthesize.
But the number of lost threads should be small.  They should not impact
the final analysis.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

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.
