Currently, running "perf script flamegraph -a -F 99 sleep 1" should produce flamegraph.html containing the flamegraph. Howevever, it gives a segmentation fault. This is caused because the flamegraph.py script is supposed to take as input the output of "perf record", which should be in stdin. This would require passing "-i -" to flamegraph.py. However, the "flamegraph-report" script causes "perf script" command to take the "-i -" option instead of flamegraph.py, which causes no problem for "perf script", but causes a seg fault since flamegraph.py has no input file. To fix this I added the "-i -" option directly to the flamegraph-report script to ensure flamegraph.py gets input from stdin.

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 reStructuredText 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.
