Merge tag 'trace-v5.15' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace
Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: - simplify the Kconfig use of FTRACE and TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT - bootconfig can now start histograms - bootconfig supports group/all enabling - histograms now can put values in linear size buckets - execnames can be passed to synthetic events - introduce "event probes" that attach to other events and can retrieve data from pointers of fields, or record fields as different types (a pointer to a string as a string instead of just a hex number) - various fixes and clean ups * tag 'trace-v5.15' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: (35 commits) tracing/doc: Fix table format in histogram code selftests/ftrace: Add selftest for testing duplicate eprobes and kprobes selftests/ftrace: Add selftest for testing eprobe events on synthetic events selftests/ftrace: Add test case to test adding and removing of event probe selftests/ftrace: Fix requirement check of README file selftests/ftrace: Add clear_dynamic_events() to test cases tracing: Add a probe that attaches to trace events tracing/probes: Reject events which have the same name of existing one tracing/probes: Have process_fetch_insn() take a void * instead of pt_regs tracing/probe: Change traceprobe_set_print_fmt() to take a type tracing/probes: Use struct_size() instead of defining custom macros tracing/probes: Allow for dot delimiter as well as slash for system names tracing/probe: Have traceprobe_parse_probe_arg() take a const arg tracing: Have dynamic events have a ref counter tracing: Add DYNAMIC flag for dynamic events tracing: Replace deprecated CPU-hotplug functions. MAINTAINERS: Add an entry for os noise/latency tracepoint: Fix kerneldoc comments bootconfig/tracing/ktest: Update ktest example for boot-time tracing tools/bootconfig: Use per-group/all enable option in ftrace2bconf script ...
