Merge tag 'trace-v6.8' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace
Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Allow kernel trace instance creation to specify what events are
created
Inside the kernel, a subsystem may create a tracing instance that it
can use to send events to user space. This sub-system may not care
about the thousands of events that exist in eventfs. Allow the
sub-system to specify what sub-systems of events it cares about, and
only those events are exposed to this instance.
- Allow the ring buffer to be broken up into bigger sub-buffers than
just the architecture page size.
A new tracefs file called "buffer_subbuf_size_kb" is created. The
user can now specify a minimum size the sub-buffer may be in
kilobytes. Note, that the implementation currently make the
sub-buffer size a power of 2 pages (1, 2, 4, 8, 16, ...) but the user
only writes in kilobyte size, and the sub-buffer will be updated to
the next size that it will can accommodate it. If the user writes in
10, it will change the size to be 4 pages on x86 (16K), as that is
the next available size that can hold 10K pages.
- Update the debug output when a corrupt time is detected in the ring
buffer. If the ring buffer detects inconsistent timestamps, there's a
debug config options that will dump the contents of the meta data of
the sub-buffer that is used for debugging. Add some more information
to this dump that helps with debugging.
- Add more timestamp debugging checks (only triggers when the config is
enabled)
- Increase the trace_seq iterator to 2 page sizes.
- Allow strings written into tracefs_marker to be larger. Up to just
under 2 page sizes (based on what trace_seq can hold).
- Increase the trace_maker_raw write to be as big as a sub-buffer can
hold.
- Remove 32 bit time stamp logic, now that the rb_time_cmpxchg() has
been removed.
- More selftests were added.
- Some code clean ups as well.
