Add a test module that checks the basic functionality of the in-kernel
synthetic event generation API by generating and tracing synthetic
events from a module.

Add an exported function named synth_event_trace(), allowing modules
or other kernel code to trace synthetic events.
Also added are several functions that allow the same functionality to
be broken out in a piecewise fashion, which are useful in situations
where tracing an event from a full array of values would be
cumbersome. Those functions are synth_event_trace_start/end() and
synth_event_add_(next)_val().

Add functions used to generate synthetic event commands, built on top
of the dynevent_cmd interface.
synth_event_gen_cmd_start() is used to create a synthetic event
command using a variable arg list and
synth_event_gen_cmd_array_start() does the same thing but using an
array of field descriptors. synth_event_add_field(),
synth_event_add_field_str() and synth_event_add_fields() can be used
to add single fields one by one or as a group. Once all desired
fields are added, synth_event_gen_cmd_end() is used to actually
execute the command and create the event.
synth_event_create() does everything, including creating the event, in
a single call.

Add an interface used to build up dynamic event creation commands,
such as synthetic and kprobe events. Interfaces specific to those
particular types of events and others can be built on top of this
interface.
Command creation is started by first using the dynevent_cmd_init()
function to initialize the dynevent_cmd object. Following that, args
are appended and optionally checked by the dynevent_arg_add() and
dynevent_arg_pair_add() functions, which use objects representing
arguments and pairs of arguments, initialized respectively by
dynevent_arg_init() and dynevent_arg_pair_init(). Finally, once all
args have been successfully added, the command is finalized and
actually created using dynevent_create().
The code here for actually printing into the dyn_event->cmd buffer
using snprintf() etc was adapted from v4 of Masami's 'tracing/boot:
Add synthetic event support' patch.

Add a function to get an event file and prevent it from going away on
module or instance removal.
trace_get_event_file() will find an event file in a given instance (if
instance is NULL, it assumes the top trace array) and return it,
pinning the instance's trace array as well as the event's module, if
applicable, so they won't go away while in use.
trace_put_event_file() does the matching release.

In the process of adding better error messages for sorting, I realized
that strsep was being used incorrectly and some of the error paths I
was expecting to be hit weren't and just fell through to the common
invalid key error case.
It also became obvious that for keyword assignments, it wasn't
necessary to save the full assignment and reparse it later, and having
a common empty-assignment check would also make more sense in terms of
error processing.
Change the code to fix these problems and simplify it for new error
message changes in a subsequent patch.

As warnings can trigger panics, especially when "panic_on_warn" is set,
memory failure warnings can cause panics and fail fuzz testers that are
stressing memory.
Create a MEM_FAIL() macro to use instead of WARN() in the tracing code
(perhaps this should be a kernel wide macro?), and use that for memory
failure issues. This should stop failing fuzz tests due to warnings.

The trace_array_get_by_name() creates a ftrace instance and
trace_array_put() is used to remove the reference. Even though the
trace_array_get_by_name() creates the instance, it also adds a reference
count to it, that prevents user space from removing it.
As the bootconfig just creates the instance on boot up, it should still be
used where it can be deleted by user space after boot. A trace_array_put()
is required to let that happen.
Also, change the documentation on trace_array_get_by_name() to make this not
be so confusing.

I noticed when trying to use the trace-cmd python interface that reading the raw
buffer wasn't working for kernel_stack events. This is because it uses a
stubbed version of __dynamic_array that doesn't do the __data_loc trick and
encode the length of the array into the field. Instead it just shows up as a
size of 0. So change this to __array and set the len to FTRACE_STACK_ENTRIES
since this is what we actually do in practice and matches how user_stack_trace
works.

probably doesn't even exist). The submitted patch wasn't quite right as it
needed to deal with clean up a bit better (if two stat tracers were the
same, it would have the same files).
But to make the code cleaner, all we needed to do is to keep the
all_stat_sessions_mutex held for most of the registering function.

trace_printk() is used to debug the kernel which includes the tracing
infrastructure. But because it writes to the ring buffer, and so does much
of the tracing infrastructure, the ring buffer's recursive detection will
drop writes to the ring buffer that is in the same context as the current
write is happening (it allows interrupts to write when normal context is
writing, but wont let normal context write while normal context is writing).
This can cause confusion and think that the code is where the trace_printk()
exists is not hit. To solve this, up the recursive nesting of the ring
buffer when trace_printk() is called before it writes to the buffer itself.
Note, this does make it dangerous to use trace_printk() in the ring buffer
code itself, because this basically disables the recursion protection of
trace_printk() buffer writes. But as trace_printk() is only used for
debugging, and if this does occur, the developer will see the cause real
quick (recursive blowing up of the stack). Thus the developer can deal with
that. But having trace_printk() silently ignored is a much bigger problem,
and disabling recursive protection is a small price to pay to fix it.

I also checked other RCU-list traversals related to event

Replace these unneeded RCU-list traversals with normal list

The synthetic node requires "fields" string arraies, which defines
the fields as same as tracing/synth_events interface.

Add kprobe event support on event node to boot-time tracing.
If the group name of event is "kprobes", the boot-time tracing
defines new probe event according to "probes" values.
- ftrace.event.kprobes.EVENT.probes = PROBE[, PROBE2...]
Defines new kprobe event based on PROBEs. It is able to define
multiple probes on one event, but those must have same type of
arguments.
For example,
ftrace.events.kprobes.myevent {
probes = "vfs_read $arg1 $arg2";
enable;
}
This will add kprobes:myevent on vfs_read with the 1st and the 2nd
arguments.

Add per-event settings for boottime tracing. User can set filter,
actions and enable on each event on boot. The event entries are
under ftrace.event.GROUP.EVENT node (note that the option key
includes event's group name and event name.) This supports below
configs.
- ftrace.event.GROUP.EVENT.enable
Enables GROUP:EVENT tracing.
- ftrace.event.GROUP.EVENT.filter = FILTER
Set FILTER rule to the GROUP:EVENT.
- ftrace.event.GROUP.EVENT.actions = ACTION[, ACTION2...]
Set ACTIONs to the GROUP:EVENT.
For example,
ftrace.event.sched.sched_process_exec {
filter = "pid < 128"
enable
}
this will enable tracing "sched:sched_process_exec" event
with "pid < 128" filter.

Setup tracing options via extra boot config in addition to kernel
command line.
This adds following commands support. These are applied to
the global trace instance.
- ftrace.options = OPT1[,OPT2...]
Enable given ftrace options.
- ftrace.trace_clock = CLOCK
Set given CLOCK to ftrace's trace_clock.
- ftrace.buffer_size = SIZE
Configure ftrace buffer size to SIZE. You can use "KB" or "MB"
for that SIZE.
- ftrace.events = EVENT[, EVENT2...]
Enable given events on boot. You can use a wild card in EVENT.
- ftrace.tracer = TRACER
Set TRACER to current tracer on boot. (e.g. function)
Note that this is NOT replacing the kernel parameters, because
this boot config based setting is later than that. If you want to
trace earlier boot events, you still need kernel parameters.

Make the synthetic event accepts a different type field to record.
However, the size and signed flag must be same.
