Use dyn_event framework for uprobe events. This shows
uprobe events on "dynamic_events" file.
User can also define new uprobe events via dynamic_events.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
"The biggest change here is the updates to kprobes
Back in January I posted patches to create function based events.
These were the events that you suggested I make to allow developers to
easily create events in code where no trace event exists. After
posting those changes for review, it was suggested that we implement
this instead with kprobes.
The problem with kprobes is that the interface is too complex and
needs to be simplified. Masami Hiramatsu posted patches in March and
I've been playing with them a bit. There's been a bit of clean up in
the kprobe code that was inspired by the function based event patches,
and a couple of enhancements to the kprobe event interface.
- If the arch supports it (we added support for x86), you can place a
kprobe event at the start of a function and use $arg1, $arg2, etc
to reference the arguments of a function. (Before you needed to
know what register or where on the stack the argument was).
- The second is a way to see array of events. For example, if you
reference a mac address, you can add:
echo 'p:mac ip_rcv perm_addr=+574($arg2):x8[6]' > kprobe_events
And this will produce:
mac: (ip_rcv+0x0/0x140) perm_addr={0x52,0x54,0x0,0xc0,0x76,0xec}
Other changes include
- Exporting trace_dump_stack to modules
- Have the stack tracer trace the entire stack (stop trying to remove
tracing itself, as we keep removing too much).
- Added support for SDT in uprobes"
[ SDT - "Statically Defined Tracing" are userspace markers for tracing.
Let's not use random TLA's in explanations unless they are fairly
well-established as generic (at least for kernel people) - Linus ]

Add $argN special fetch variable for accessing function
arguments. This allows user to trace the Nth argument easily
at the function entry.
Note that this returns most probably assignment of registers
and stacks. In some case, it may not work well. If you need
to access correct registers or stacks you should use perf-probe.

Add array type support for probe events.
This allows user to get arraied types from memory address.
The array type syntax is
TYPE[N]
Where TYPE is one of types (u8/16/32/64,s8/16/32/64,
x8/16/32/64, symbol, string) and N is a fixed value less
than 64.
The string array type is a bit different from other types. For
other base types, <base-type>[1] is equal to <base-type>
(e.g. +0(%di):x32[1] is same as +0(%di):x32.) But string[1] is not
equal to string. The string type itself represents "char array",
but string array type represents "char * array". So, for example,
+0(%di):string[1] is equal to +0(+0(%di)):string.

Add "symbol" type to probeevent, which is an alias of u32 or u64
(depends on BITS_PER_LONG). This shows the result value in
symbol+offset style. This type is only available with kprobe
events.

The driver prints pcsr twice: the first time it uses specifier %px to
print hexadecimal pcsr value and the second time uses specifier %pS for
output kernel symbols.
As suggested by Kees, using %pS should be sufficient and %px isn't
necessary; the reason is if the pcsr is a kernel space address, we can
easily get to know the code line from %pS format, on the other hand, if
the pcsr value doesn't fall into kernel space range (e.g. if the CPU is
stuck in firmware), %pS also gives out pcsr hexadecimal value.
So this commit removes useless %px and update section "Output format"
in the document for alignment between the code and document.

I fell into the trap of having set up function tracer with a very

which was the full unabridged graph recursion.

72199320d49d ("timekeeping: Add the new CLOCK_MONOTONIC_ACTIVE clock")
As stated in the pull request for the unification of CLOCK_MONOTONIC and
CLOCK_BOOTTIME, it was clear that we might have to revert the change.
As reported by several folks systemd and other applications rely on the
documented behaviour of CLOCK_MONOTONIC on Linux and break with the above
changes. After resume daemons time out and other timeout related issues are
observed. Rafael compiled this list:
* systemd kills daemons on resume, after >WatchdogSec seconds
of suspending (Genki Sky). [Verified that that's because systemd uses
CLOCK_MONOTONIC and expects it to not include the suspend time.]
* systemd-journald misbehaves after resume:
systemd-journald[7266]: File /var/log/journal/016627c3c4784cd4812d4b7e96a34226/system.journal
corrupted or uncleanly shut down, renaming and replacing.
(Mike Galbraith).
* NetworkManager reports "networking disabled" and networking is broken
after resume 50% of the time (Pavel). [May be because of systemd.]
* MATE desktop dims the display and starts the screensaver right after
system resume (Pavel).
* Full system hang during resume (me). [May be due to systemd or NM or both.]
That happens on debian and open suse systems.
It's sad, that these problems were neither catched in -next nor by those
folks who expressed interest in this change.

The default clock if timestamps are used in a histogram is "global".
If timestamps aren't used, the clock is irrelevant.
Use the "clock=" param only if you want to override the default
"global" clock for a histogram with timestamps.

With the addition of variables and actions, it's become necessary to
provide more detailed error information to users about syntax errors.
Add a 'last error' facility accessible via the erroring event's 'hist'
file. Reading the hist file after an error will display more detailed
information about what went wrong, if information is available. This
extended error information will be available until the next hist
trigger command for that event.
# echo xxx > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_wakeup/trigger
echo: write error: Invalid argument
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_wakeup/hist
ERROR: Couldn't yyy: zzz
Last command: xxx
Also add specific error messages for variable and action errors.

A common key to use in a histogram is the cpuid - add a new cpu
'synthetic' field named 'cpu' for that purpose.

Appending .usecs onto a common_timestamp field will cause the
timestamp value to be in microseconds instead of the default
nanoseconds. A typical latency histogram using usecs would look like
this:
# echo 'hist:keys=pid,prio:ts0=common_timestamp.usecs ...
# echo 'hist:keys=next_pid:wakeup_lat=common_timestamp.usecs-$ts0 ...
This also adds an external trace_clock_in_ns() to trace.c for the
timestamp conversion.

Add a new option flag indicating whether or not the ring buffer is in
'absolute timestamp' mode.
Currently this is only set/unset by hist triggers that make use of a
common_timestamp. As such, there's no reason to make this writeable
for users - its purpose is only to allow users to determine
unequivocally whether or not the ring buffer is in that mode (although
absolute timestamps can coexist with the normal delta timestamps, when
the ring buffer is in absolute mode, timestamps written while absolute
mode is in effect take up more space in the buffer, and are not as
efficient).

Kswapd will not wakeup if per-zone watermarks are not failing or if too
many previous attempts at background reclaim have failed.
This can be true if there is a lot of free memory available. For high-
order allocations, kswapd is responsible for waking up kcompactd for
background compaction. If the zone is not below its watermarks or
reclaim has recently failed (lots of free memory, nothing left to
reclaim), kcompactd does not get woken up.
When __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM is not allowed, allow kcompactd to still be
woken up even if kswapd will not reclaim. This allows high-order
allocations, such as thp, to still trigger background compaction even
when the zone has an abundance of free memory.

Pull time(r) updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"A small set of updates for timers and timekeeping:
- The most interesting change is the consolidation of clock MONOTONIC
and clock BOOTTIME.
Clock MONOTONIC behaves now exactly like clock BOOTTIME and does
not longer ignore the time spent in suspend. A new clock
MONOTONIC_ACTIVE is provived which behaves like clock MONOTONIC in
kernels before this change. This allows applications to
programmatically check for the clock MONOTONIC behaviour.
As discussed in the review thread, this has the potential of
breaking user space and we might have to revert this. Knock on wood
that we can avoid that exercise.
- Updates to the NTP mechanism to improve accuracy
- A new kernel internal data structure to aid the ongoing Y2038 work.
- Cleanups and simplifications of the clocksource code.
- Make the alarmtimer code play nicely with debugobjects"
