[GIT pull] perf updates for 4.5

From: Thomas Gleixner
Date: Sun Feb 14 2016 - 04:41:56 EST


Linus,

please pull the latest perf-urgent-for-linus git tree from:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git perf-urgent-for-linus

Another round of fixes for the perf tooling side:

- Prevent a NULL pointer dereference in tracepoint error handling

- Fix a thread handling bug in the intel_pt error handling code

- Search both .eh_frame and .debug_frame sections as toolchains seem to have
random choices of storing the CFI information

- Fix the perf state interval output values, which got broken when fixing
the overall output

Thanks,

tglx
