Namhyung Kim d01f4e8db2 perf ftrace: Introduce new 'ftrace' tool
The 'perf ftrace' command is a simple wrapper of kernel's ftrace
functionality.  It only supports single thread tracing currently and
just reads trace_pipe in text and then write it to stdout.

Committer notes:

Testing it:

  # perf ftrace -f function_graph usleep 123456

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

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.
