no_force_psb was dropped as a late change to the kernel driver.
Consequently, remove it from the documentation.

<title>perf record: Add ability to name registers to record</title>

<id>bcc84ec65ad1bd9f777a1fade6f8e5e0c5808fa5</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch modifies the -I/--int-regs option to enablepassing the name
of the registers to sample on interrupt. Registers can be specified by
their symbolic names. For instance on x86, --intr-regs=ax,si.

The motivation is to reduce the size of the perf.data file and the
overhead of sampling by only collecting the registers useful to a
specific analysis. For instance, for value profiling, sampling only the
registers used to passed arguements to functions.

With no parameter, the --intr-regs still records all possible registers
based on the architecture.

To name registers, it is necessary to use the long form of the option,
i.e., --intr-regs:

  $ perf record --intr-regs=si,di,r8,r9 .....

To record any possible registers:

  $ perf record -I .....
  $ perf report --intr-regs ...

To display the register, one can use perf report -D

To list the available registers:

  $ perf record --intr-regs=\?
  available registers: AX BX CX DX SI DI BP SP IP FLAGS CS SS R8 R9 R10 R11 R12 R13 R14 R15

<content type='text'>
This patch adds the output of the interrupted machine state (iregs) to
perf script. It presents them  as NAME:VALUE so this is easy to parse
during post processing.

To capture the interrupted machine state:
   $ perf record -I ....

to display iregs, use the -F option:

   $ perf script -F ip,iregs
   40afc2   AX:0x6c5770    BX:0x1e    CX:0x5f4d80a    DX:0x101010101010101    SI:0x1

Sometimes when post-processing output from `perf script` one does not
want to demangle C++ symbol names. Add an option to allow this.

Also add --[no-]demangle-kernel to be consistent with top/report/probe.

<content type='text'>
Intel BTS support fits within the new auxtrace infrastructure.  Recording is
supporting by identifying the Intel BTS PMU, parsing options and setting up
events.

Decoding is supported by queuing up trace data by thread and then decoding
synchronously delivering synthesized event samples into the session processing
for tools to consume.

To record an AUX area, the weak function auxtrace_record__init() must be
implemented.

Equally to decode an AUX area, the AUX area tracing type must be added
to the perf_event__process_auxtrace_info() function.

This patch makes those two changes plus hooks up default config for the
intel_pt PMU.  Also some brief documentation is provided for using the
tools with intel_pt.

To record an AUX area, the weak function auxtrace_record__init() must be
implemented.

Equally to decode an AUX area, the AUX area tracing type must be added
to the perf_event__process_auxtrace_info() function.

This patch makes those two changes plus hooks up default config for the
intel_pt PMU.  Also some brief documentation is provided for using the
tools with intel_pt.

Introduce --show-ref-call-graph for perf report to print reference
callgraph for no callgraph event.

Here is an example.

 --header/--header-only options.
