Pulled, thanks Arnaldo.

Note that the old dependency related build failure thought to be 
fixed in commit 860df5833e46 is back:

 make[1]: *** No rule to make target 
 `/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.7.0/include/stddef.h', needed by 
`.trace-seq.d'.  Stop.

'make clean' itself does not work in libtraceevent:

 comet:~/tip/tools/lib/traceevent> make clean
 make: *** No rule to make target 
`/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.7.0/include/stddef.h', needed by 
`.trace-seq.d'.  Stop.

So I had to clean it out manually:

 comet:~/tip/tools/lib/traceevent> git ls-files --others | xargs rm
 comet:~/tip/tools/lib/traceevent> 

and then things build fine.

I also noticed a 'perf trace' bug, after running 'perf trace' it 
outputs lines but then gets hung:

  PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND            
                   
 6081 mingo     20   0 18.2g  14g 3544 D 18.6 91.2   0:20.28 perf               
     

and then after half a minute it gets active again, outputting 
lines and then segfaulting:

 LOST 1 events!
 31082 ) = 375
 31082 write(fd: 3, buf: 140030569454096, count: 48LOST 1 events!
 31082 select(n: 13, inp: 140030569376688, outp: 140030569376656, exp: 0, tvp: 
031082 ) = 2
 Segmentation fault

It's a 16-way box running:

 Linux comet 3.5.4-1.fc17.x86_64 #1 SMP Mon Sep 17 15:03:59 UTC 2012 x86_64 
x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Note how much the RSS is, 14 GB of RAM with less of 1 minute 
running. The segfault might be related to a failed allocation 
not being handled correctly perhaps.

Thanks,

        Ingo
