Andi Kleen b585ebdb59 perf script: Add --insn-trace for instruction decoding
Add a --insn-trace short hand option for decoding and disassembling
instruction streams for intel_pt. This automatically pipes the output
into the xed disassembler to generate disassembled instructions.  This
just makes this use model much nicer to use.

Before

  % perf record -e intel_pt// ...
  % perf script --itrace=i0ns --ns -F +insn,-event,-period | xed -F insn: -A -64

Now:

  % perf record -e intel_pt// ...
  % perf script --insn-trace --xed
  ... same output ...

XED needs to be installed with:

  $ git clone https://github.com/intelxed/mbuild.git mbuild
  $ git clone https://github.com/intelxed/xed
  $ cd xed
  $ ./mfile.py
  $ ./mfile.py examples
  $ sudo ./mfile.py --prefix=/usr/local install
  $ sudo cp obj/examples/xed /usr/local/bin
  $ xed | head -3

README

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.
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.
