Linus Torvalds 26aa834ff2 Specific for timerlat:
- Improves the output of timerlat top by adding a missing \n,
   and by avoiding printing color-formatting characters where
   they are translated to regular characters.
 
 - Improves timerlat auto-analysis output by replacing '\t'
   with spaces to avoid copy-and-paste issues when reporting
   problems.
 
 - For timerlat, make the user-space (-u) option the default,
   as it is the most complete test. Add a -k option to use
   the in-kernel workload.
 
 - On timerlat top and hist, add a summary with the overall
   results. For instance, the minimum value for all CPUs,
   the overall average and the maximum value from all CPUs.
 
 - timerlat hist was printing initial values (i.e., 0 as max,
   and ~0 as min) if the trace stopped before the first Ret-User
   event. This problem was fixed by printing the "       - "
   no value string to the output if that was the case.
 
 For all RTLA tools:
 
 - Add a --warm-up <seconds> option, allowing the workload to
   run for <seconds> before starting to collect results.
 
 - Add a --trace-buffer-size option, allowing the user to set
   the tracing buffer size for -t option. This option is mainly
   useful for reducing the trace file. Now rtla depends on
   libtracefs >= 1.6.
 
 - Fix the -t [trace_file] parsing, now it does not require
   the '=' before the option parameter, and better handles the
   multiple ways a user can pass the trace_file.txt

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 reStructuredText 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.
