----------------------------------------------------------------
perf/core improvements and fixes:

User visible:

o Add +field argument support for --sort option (Jiri Olsa)

o Do not access kallsyms when analyzing user binaries with 'probe' (Masami Hiramatsu)

o Ignore stripped vmlinux and fallback to kallsyms (Anton Blanchard)

o Add path to Ubuntu kernel debuginfo file (Anton Blanchard)

o Disable kernel symbol demangling by default (Avi Kivity)

Infrastructure:

o More intel PT prep work, from Adrian Hunter, including:

- Let a user specify a PMU event without any config terms
- Add perf-with-kcore script
- Let default config be defined for a PMU
- Add perf_pmu__scan_file()

o "perf kvm stat report" improvements by Alexander Yarygin:
o Save pid string in opts.target.pid
o Enable the target.system_wide flag
o Unify the title bar output

o Fix build issue on powerpc when DWARF support is disabled (Anton Blanchard)

o Allow to specify lib compile variable for spec usage (Jiri Olsa)

o Fix build on ARM (Stephane Eranian)

o Fix build on powerpc when DWARF support is disabled (Anton Blanchard)

o Don't include sys/poll.h directly (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

o Use ring buffer consume method to look like other tools (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

Chanho Park (1):
perf tools: define _DEFAULT_SOURCE for glibc_2.20

o Allow to specify lib compile variable for spec usage (Jiri Olsa)

o Fix GNU-only grep usage in Makefile (John Spencer)
