Trace IDs are now dynamically allocated. Previously used the static association algorithm that is no longer used. The 'cpu * 2 + seed' was outdated and broken for systems with high core counts (>46). as it did not scale and was broken for larger core counts. Trace ID will now be sent in PERF_RECORD_AUX_OUTPUT_HW_ID record. Legacy ID algorithm renamed and retained for limited backward compatibility use.

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.
