There's no --signal-trigger option, also adding the code comment into
record man page.

Namhyung Kim 07235f84ec perf sched timehist: Add -I/--idle-hist option
The --idle-hist option is to analyze system idle state so which process
makes cpu to go idle.  If this option is specified, non-idle events will
be skipped and processes switching to/from idle will be shown.

This option is mostly useful when used with --summary(-only) option.  In
the idle-time summary view, idle time is accounted to previous thread
which is run before idle task.

The example output looks like following:

  Idle-time summary
                  comm parent sched-out idle-time min-idle avg-idle max-idle stddev migrations

Yannick Brosseau 108a7c103b perf tools: Explicitly document that --children is enabled by default
The fact that the --children option is enabled by default is buried deep
at the end of the help page, in the overhead calculation section. This
make it explicit right where the option is listed, following the same
way other default options are described

for some amount of time and analyze a segment of interest within that
window.

 --no-call-graph can be used to not show the callchains. --max-stack is used
to control the number of frames shown (default of 5). -x/--excl options can
be used to collapse redundant callchains to get more relevant data on screen.

David Ahern 49394a2a24 perf sched timehist: Introduce timehist command
'perf sched timehist' provides an analysis of scheduling events.

Example usage:
    perf sched record -- sleep 1
    perf sched timehist

By default it shows the individual schedule events, including the wait
time (time between sched-out and next sched-in events for the task), the
task scheduling delay (time between wakeup and actually running) and run
time for the task:

            time    cpu  task name             wait time  sch delay   run time

Jiri Olsa d940baccc9 perf c2c report: Display total HITMs on default
Currently we display the cacheline list sorted on remote HITMs by
default.

The problem is that they might not be always counted and 'perf c2c
report' displays an empty output. Thus it's more convenient to display
and sort the cacheline list based on the total of HITMs and have the
best change to see data in the default report run.

Taeung Song c6fc018a7a perf config: Add support setting variables in a config file
Add setting feature that can add config variables with their values to a
config file (i.e. user or system config file) or modify config key-value
pairs in a config file.  For the syntax examples:

    perf config [<file-option>] [section.name[=value] ...]

e.g. You can set the ui.show-headers to false with

    # perf config ui.show-headers=false

If you want to add or modify several config items, you can do like

    # perf config annotate.show_nr_jumps=false kmem.default=slab

Committer notes:

Testing it:

  $ perf config -l
  top.children=true
  report.children=false
  $
  $ perf config top.children=false
  $ perf config -l
  top.children=false
  report.children=false
  $
  $ perf config kmem.default=slab
  $ perf config -l
  top.children=false
  report.children=false
  kmem.default=slab

  close(6)                                = 0
  nanosleep({0, 5000000}, NULL)           = 0  # DELAY OF 5 MS BEFORE ENABLING THE EVENTS
