Mel reported stddev reporting was broken due to following commit:
106a94a0f8c2 ("perf stat: Introduce read_counters function")
This commit merged interval and overall counters reading into single
read_counters function.The old interval code cleaned the stddev data for some reason (it's
never displayed in interval mode) and the mentioned commit kept on
cleaning the stddev data in merged function, which resulted in the
stddev not being displayed.Removing the wrong stddev data cleanup init_stats call.

itself instead

Pull more power management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"This includes fixes on top of the previous batch of PM+ACPI updates
and some new material as well.From the new material perspective the most significant are the driver
core changes that should allow USB devices to stay suspended over
system suspend/resume cycles if they have been runtime-suspended
already beforehand. Apart from that, ACPICA is updated to upstream
revision 20160108 (cosmetic mostly, but including one fixup on top of
the previous ACPICA update) and there are some devfreq updates the
didn't make it before (due to timing).A few recent regressions are fixed, most importantly in the cpuidle
menu governor and in the ACPI backlight driver and some x86 platform
drivers depending on it.Some more bugs are fixed and cleanups are made on top of that.
Specifics:
- Modify the driver core and the USB subsystem to allow USB devices
to stay suspended over system suspend/resume cycles if they have
been runtime-suspended already beforehand and fix some bugs on top
of these changes (Tomeu Vizoso, Rafael Wysocki).- Update ACPICA to upstream revision 20160108, including updates of
the ACPICA's copyright notices, a code fixup resulting from a
regression fix that was necessary in the upstream code only (the
regression fixed by it has never been present in Linux) and a
compiler warning fix (Bob Moore, Lv Zheng).- Fix a recent regression in the cpuidle menu governor that broke it
on practically all architectures other than x86 and make a couple
of optimizations on top of that fix (Rafael Wysocki).- Clean up the selection of cpuidle governors depending on whether or
not the kernel is configured for tickless systems (Jean Delvare).- Revert a recent commit that introduced a regression in the ACPI
backlight driver, address the problem it attempted to fix in a
different way and revert one more cosmetic change depending on the
problematic commit (Hans de Goede).- Add two more ACPI backlight quirks (Hans de Goede).
- Fix a few minor problems in the core devfreq code, clean it up a
bit and update the MAINTAINERS information related to it (Chanwoo
Choi, MyungJoo Ham).- Improve an error message in the ACPI fan driver (Andy Lutomirski).

'make build-test' is painful because of time consuming. In a full test,
all test cases are built twice with tools/perf/Makefile and

options for make, but 'Makefile.perf' not, so all test cases is built
with one job. It is very slow.This patch adds '-j' options to Makefile.perf testing. It computes

While recording guest samples in host using perf kvm record, it will
populate unprocessable sample error, though samples will be recorded
properly. While generating report using perf kvm report, no samples will
be processed and same error will populate. We have seen this behaviour
with upstream perf(4.4-rc3) on x86 and ppc64 hardware.Reason behind this failure is, when it tries to fetch machine from
rb_tree of machines, it fails. As a part of tracing a bug, we figured
out that this code was incorrectly refactored in commit 54245fdc3576
("perf session: Remove wrappers to machines__find").This patch will change the functionality such that if it can't fetch
machine in first trial, it will create one node of machine and add that to
rb_tree. So next time when it tries to fetch same machine from rb_tree,
it won't fail. Actually it was the case before refactoring of code in
aforementioned commit.This patch is generated from acme perf/core branch.
Below I've mention an example that demonstrate the behaviour before and
after applying patch.Before applying patch:

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
"The bulk of this has appeared in -next and independently received a
build success notification from the kbuild robot. The 'for-4.5/block-
dax' topic branch was rebased over the weekend to drop the "block
device end-of-life" rework that Al would like to see re-implemented
with a notifier, and to address bug reports against the badblocks
integration.There is pending feedback against "libnvdimm: Add a poison list and
export badblocks" received last week. Linda identified some localized
fixups that we will handle incrementally.Summary:
- Media error handling: The 'badblocks' implementation that
originated in md-raid is up-levelled to a generic capability of a
block device. This initial implementation is limited to being
consulted in the pmem block-i/o path. Later, 'badblocks' will be
consulted when creating dax mappings.- Raw block device dax: For virtualization and other cases that want
large contiguous mappings of persistent memory, add the capability
to dax-mmap a block device directly.- Increased /dev/mem restrictions: Add an option to treat all
io-memory as IORESOURCE_EXCLUSIVE, i.e. disable /dev/mem access
while a driver is actively using an address range. This behavior
is controlled via the new CONFIG_IO_STRICT_DEVMEM option and can be
overridden by the existing "iomem=relaxed" kernel command line
option.- Miscellaneous fixes include a 'pfn'-device huge page alignment fix,
block device shutdown crash fix, and other small libnvdimm fixes"* tag 'libnvdimm-for-4.5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: (32 commits)

The vdso-based sigreturn mechanism is fragile and isn't used by
modern glibc so, if we break it, we'll only notice when someone
tests an unusual libc.Add an explicit selftest.
[ I wrote this while debugging a Bionic breakage -- my first guess
was that I had somehow messed up sigreturn. I've caused problems in
that code before, and it's really easy to fail to notice it because
there's nothing on a modern distro that needs vdso-based sigreturn. ]Signed-off-by: Andy Lutomirski

Pull oower management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"As far as the number of commits goes, ACPICA takes the lead this time,
followed by cpufreq and the device properties framework changes.The most significant new feature is the debugfs-based interface to the
ACPICA's AML debugger added in the previous cycle and a new user space
tool for accessing it.On the cpufreq front, the core is updated to handle governors more
efficiently, particularly on systems where a single cpufreq policy
object is shared between multiple CPUs, and there are quite a few
changes in drivers (intel_pstate, cpufreq-dt etc).The device properties framework is updated to handle built-in (ie
included in the kernel itself) device properties better, among other
things by adding a fallback mechanism that will allow drivers to
provide default properties to be used in case the plaform firmware
doesn't provide the properties expected by them.The Operating Performance Points (OPP) framework gets new DT bindings
and debugfs support.A new cpufreq driver for ST platforms is added and the ACPI driver for
AMD SoCs will now support the APM X-Gene ACPI I2C device.The rest is mostly fixes and cleanups all over.
Specifics:
- Add a debugfs-based interface for interacting with the ACPICA's AML
debugger introduced in the previous cycle and a new user space tool
for that, fix some bugs related to the AML debugger and clean up
the code in question (Lv Zheng, Dan Carpenter, Colin Ian King,
Markus Elfring).- Update ACPICA to upstream revision 20151218 including a number of
fixes and cleanups in the ACPICA core (Bob Moore, Lv Zheng, Labbe
Corentin, Prarit Bhargava, Colin Ian King, David E Box, Rafael
Wysocki).In particular, the previously added erroneous support for the _SUB
object is dropped, the concatenate operator will support all ACPI
objects now, the Debug Object handling is improved, the SuperName
handling of parameters being control methods is fixed, the
ObjectType operator handling is updated to follow ACPI 5.0A and the
handling of CondRefOf and RefOf is updated accordingly, module-
level code will be executed after loading each ACPI table now
(instead of being run once after all tables containing AML have
been loaded), the Operation Region handlers management is updated
to fix some reported problems and a the ACPICA code in the kernel
is more in line with the upstream now.- Update the ACPI backlight driver to provide information on whether
or not it will generate key-presses for brightness change hotkeys
and update some platform drivers (dell-wmi, thinkpad_acpi) to use
that information to avoid sending double key-events to users pace
for these, add new ACPI backlight quirks (Hans de Goede, Aaron Lu,
Adrien Schildknecht).- Improve the ACPI handling of interrupt GPIOs (Christophe Ricard).
- Fix the handling of the list of device IDs of device objects found
in the ACPI namespace and add a helper for checking if there is a
device object for a given device ID (Lukas Wunner).- Change the logic in the ACPI namespace scanning code to create
struct acpi_device objects for all ACPI device objects found in the
namespace even if _STA fails for them which helps to avoid device
enumeration problems on Microsoft Surface 3 (Aaron Lu).- Add support for the APM X-Gene ACPI I2C device to the ACPI driver
for AMD SoCs (Loc Ho).- Fix the long-standing issue with the DMA controller on Intel SoCs
where ACPI tables have no power management support for the DMA
controller itself, but it can be powered off automatically when the
last (other) device on the SoC is powered off via ACPI and clean up
the ACPI driver for Intel SoCs (acpi-lpss) after previous attempts
to fix that problem (Andy Shevchenko).- Assorted ACPI fixes and cleanups (Andy Lutomirski, Colin Ian King,
Javier Martinez Canillas, Ken Xue, Mathias Krause, Rafael Wysocki,
Sinan Kaya).- Update the device properties framework for better handling of
built-in properties, add support for built-in properties to the
platform bus type, update the MFD subsystem's handling of device
properties and add support for passing default configuration data
as device properties to the intel-lpss MFD drivers, convert the
designware I2C driver to use the unified device properties API and
add a fallback mechanism for using default built-in properties if
the platform firmware fails to provide the properties as expected
by drivers (Andy Shevchenko, Mika Westerberg, Heikki Krogerus,
Andrew Morton).- Add new Device Tree bindings to the Operating Performance Points
(OPP) framework and update the exynos4412 DT binding accordingly,
introduce debugfs support for the OPP framework (Viresh Kumar,
Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz).- Migrate the mt8173 cpufreq driver to the new OPP bindings (Pi-Cheng
Chen).- Update the cpufreq core to make the handling of governors more
efficient, especially on systems where policy objects are shared
between multiple CPUs (Viresh Kumar, Rafael Wysocki).- Fix cpufreq governor handling on configurations with
CONFIG_HZ_PERIODIC set (Chen Yu).- Clean up the cpufreq core code related to the boost sysfs knob
support and update the ACPI cpufreq driver accordingly (Rafael
Wysocki).- Add a new cpufreq driver for ST platforms and corresponding Device
Tree bindings (Lee Jones).- Update the intel_pstate driver to allow the P-state selection
algorithm used by it to depend on the CPU ID of the processor it is
running on, make it use a special P-state selection algorithm (with
an IO wait time compensation tweak) on Atom CPUs based on the
Airmont and Silvermont cores so as to reduce their energy
consumption and improve intel_pstate documentation (Philippe
Longepe, Srinivas Pandruvada).- Update the cpufreq-dt driver to support registering cooling devices
that use the (P * V^2 * f) dynamic power draw formula where V is
the voltage, f is the frequency and P is a constant coefficient
provided by Device Tree and update the arm_big_little cpufreq
driver to use that support (Punit Agrawal).- Assorted cpufreq driver (cpufreq-dt, qoriq, pcc-cpufreq,
blackfin-cpufreq) updates (Andrzej Hajda, Hongtao Jia, Jacob
Tanenbaum, Markus Elfring).- cpuidle core tweaks related to polling and measured_us calculation
(Rik van Riel).- Removal of modularity from a few cpuidle drivers (clps711x, ux500,
exynos) that cannot be built as modules in practice (Paul
Gortmaker).- PM core update to prevent devices from being probed during system
suspend/resume which is generally problematic and may lead to
inconsistent behavior (Grygorii Strashko).- Assorted updates of the PM core and related code (Julia Lawall,
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard, Maruthi Bayyavarapu, Rafael Wysocki, Ulf
Hansson).- PNP bus type updates (Christophe Le Roy, Heiner Kallweit).
- PCI PM code cleanups (Jarkko Nikula, Julia Lawall).
