Just a small stylistic side note:

Wang Nan (37):
   tools perf: set vmlinux_path__nr_entries to 0 in vmlinux_path__exit.
   tools lib traceevent: install libtraceevent.a into libdir.
   tools build: Allow other override features to check.
   tools include: add __aligned_u64 to types.h.
   tools lib bpf: introduce 'bpf' library to tools.
   tools lib bpf: allow set printing function.
   tools lib bpf: defines basic interface.
   tools lib bpf: open eBPF object file and do basic validation.
   tools lib bpf: check swap according to EHDR.
   tools lib bpf: iterater over elf sections to collect information.
   tools lib bpf: collect version and license from ELF.
   tools lib bpf: collect map definitions.
   tools lib bpf: collect config section in object.
   tools lib bpf: collect symbol table in object files.
   tools lib bpf: collect bpf programs from object files.
   tools lib bpf: collect relocation sections from object file.
   tools lib bpf: collect relocation instructions for each program.
   tools lib bpf: clean elf memory after loading.
   tools lib bpf: add bpf.c/h for common bpf operations.
   tools lib bpf: create maps needed by object file.
   tools lib bpf: relocation programs.
   tools lib bpf: introduce bpf_load_program to bpf.c.
   tools lib bpf: load bpf programs in object file into kernel.
   tools lib bpf: accessors of bpf_program.
   tools lib bpf: accessors for struct bpf_object.
   tools perf: Add new 'perf bpf' command.
   tools perf: make perf depend on libbpf.
   tools perf: add 'perf bpf record' subcommand.
   tools perf: add bpf-loader and open elf object files.
   tools perf: collect all bpf programs.
   tools perf: config probe points of eBPF programs during prepartion.
   tools perf bpf: probe at kprobe points.
   tools perf bpf: load eBPF object into kernel.
   tools perf: add a bpf_wrapper global flag.
   tools perf: add bpf_fd field to evsel and introduce new event syntax.
   tools perf: generate event argv.
   tools perf bpf: passes generated arguments to cmd_record.
The titles of the changes have numerous problems and inconsistencies:

  - use consistent capitalization, i.e.:

     tools perf: Collect all bpf programs

  - don't use period at the end, i.e.:

     tools perf: Generate event argv

  - use consistent present tense verbs, i.e.:

     -  tools lib bpf: defines basic interface.
     +  tools lib bpf: Define basic interface

  - Always use verbs! I.e. these are bad:

     -   tools perf: config probe points of eBPF programs during prepartion.
     -   tools lib bpf: relocation programs.

  - take a look at 'git log tools/perf' to see what the established
    title style is. For example it's not 'tools perf' but 'perf tools',
    etc.

etc.

There's not a single title in this series that has a proper title.
This makes the shortlog a difficult read and gives a bad first
impression. Please fix.

Sorry for the inconvenience. I have fixed titles in my local tree as follow. You will see the fixed title
in next version.

Thank you.
