Since common_callchain has been added to the argument array, we need to
reflect it in perl-based scripts, because otherwise the following args
would be shifted and thus incorrect. E.g. rw-by-pid and calculation of
read and written bytes:
Before:
read counts by pid:
pid comm # reads bytes_requested bytes_read
------ -------------------- ----------- ---------- ----------
19301 dd 4 424510450039736 0
After:
read counts by pid:
pid comm # reads bytes_requested bytes_read
------ -------------------- ----------- ---------- ----------
19301 dd 4 9536 4341
Committer testing:
To see before after first do:
# perf script record rw-by-pid
^C
Now you'll have a perf.data file to report on, then do before and after
using:
# perf script report rw-by-pid
Anbd notice the bytes_request/bytes_read, as above.

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.
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.
