I'm sure perf developers break the ABI sometimes - that happens elsewhere in the kernel as well. However, Ted claimed that perf developers use tools/perf as an excuse to break the ABI _on purpose_ which is something I have hard time believing. Your snarky remarks doesn't really help this discussion either. It's apparent from the LKML discussions that you're more interested in arguing with the perf developers rather than helping them.
