Namhyung Kim 41b740b6e8 perf record: Add --synth option
Add an option to control the synthesizing behavior.

    --synth <no|all|task|mmap|cgroup>
                      Fine-tune event synthesis: default=all

This can be useful when we know it doesn't need some synthesis like
in a specific usecase and/or when using pipe:

  $ perf record -a --all-cgroups --synth cgroup -o- sleep 1 | \
  > perf report -i- -s cgroup

Committer notes:

Added a clarification to the man page entry for --synth that this is
about pre-existing threads.

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.

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.
