Vince Weaver 562c69f66f perf_event_open.2: 4.0 update rdpmc documentation 
The rdpmc instruction allows reading performance counters directly
from usersapce.  Prior to Linux 4.0 any process could use this
instruction when a perf event was running, even if the process itself
did not have any open.  The following changesets changed the default
behavior so that only processes with active events can use rdpmc.

Note this change broke the ABI.  Previously:
	/sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/rdpmc
Set to "1" meant allow across whole system.

After the change "2" means the whole system, and "1" means per-process.

Probably a better change would have been to add "2" to mean per-process
and make that the default setting.  Probably too late to fix that now.

README 

This package contains Linux man pages for sections
2, 3, 4, 5, and 7. Some more information is given in the
`Announce' file.

Install by copying to your favourite location.
"make install" will just copy them to /usr/share/man/man[1-8].
To install to a path different from /usr use
"make install prefix=/install/path".
"make" will move the pages from this package that are older than
the already installed ones to a subdirectory `not_installed',
then remove old versions (compressed or not),
compress the pages, and copy them to /usr/share/man/man[1-8].


Note that you may have to remove preformatted pages.

Note that sometimes these pages are duplicates of pages
also distributed in other packages. This has been reported
about dlclose.3, dlerror.3, dlopen.3, dlsym.3 (found in ld.so),
about resolver.3, resolv.conf.5 (found in bind-utils),
and about passwd.5, and mailaddr.7. Be careful not to
overwrite more up-to-date versions.
Reports on further duplicates are welcome.
Formerly present and now removed duplicates:
 exports.5 (found in nfs-server-2.2*),
 fstab.5, nfs.5 (found in util-linux-2.12*),
 lilo.8, lilo.conf.5 (found in lilo-21.6*).

Copyrights: These man pages come under various copyrights.
All pages are freely distributable when the nroff source is included.
