Thomas Richter eca0fa28cd perf record: Provide detailed information on s390 CPU
When perf record ... is setup to record data, the s390 cpu information
was a fixed string "IBM/S390".

Replace this string with one containing more information about the
machine. The information included in the cpuid is a comma separated
list:

   manufacturer,type,model-capacity,model[,version,authorization]
with

- manufacturer: up to 16 byte name of the manufacturer (IBM).
- type: a four digit number refering to the machine
  generation.
- model-capacitiy: up to 16 characters describing number
  of cpus etc.
- model: up to 16 characters describing model.
- version: the CPU-MF counter facility version number,
  available on LPARs only, omitted on z/VM guests.
- authorization: the CPU-MF counter facility authorization level,
  available on LPARs only, omitted on z/VM guests.

Before:

  [root@s8360047 perf]# ./perf record -- sleep 1
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.001 MB perf.data (4 samples) ]
  [root@s8360047 perf]# ./perf report --header | fgrep cpuid
   # cpuid : IBM/S390
  [root@s8360047 perf]#

After:

  [root@s35lp76 perf]# ./perf report --header|fgrep cpuid
   # cpuid : IBM,3906,704,M03,3.5,002f
  [root@s35lp76 perf]#

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
