tracing: support "bool" type in synthetic trace events
selftests/ftrace: Add test case for synthetic event syntax errors
tracing: Handle synthetic event array field type checking correctly
selftests/ftrace: Change synthetic event name for inter-event-combined test
tracing: Add synthetic event error logging
tracing: Check that the synthetic event and field names are legal
tracing: Move is_good_name() from trace_probe.h to trace.h
tracing: Don't show dynamic string internals in synthetic event description
tracing: Fix some typos in comments
tracing/boot: Add ftrace.instance.*.alloc_snapshot option
tracing: Fix race in trace_open and buffer resize call
tracing: Check return value of __create_val_fields() before using its result
tracing: Fix synthetic print fmt check for use of __get_str()
tracing: Remove a pointless assignment
ftrace: ftrace_global_list is renamed to ftrace_ops_list
ftrace: Format variable declarations of ftrace_allocate_records
ftrace: Simplify the calculation of page number for ftrace_page->records
ftrace: Simplify the dyn_ftrace->flags macro
ftrace: Simplify the hash calculation
ftrace: Use fls() to get the bits for dup_hash()
...
Since the ftrace current setting may conflict with the new setting
from bootconfig, add the --init option to initialize ftrace before
setting for bconf2ftrace.sh.
E.g.
$ bconf2ftrace.sh --init boottrace.bconf
This initialization method copied from selftests/ftrace.

Add a ftrace2bconf.sh under tools/bootconfig/scripts which generates
a bootconfig file from the current ftrace settings.
To read the ftrace settings, ftrace2bconf.sh requires the root
privilege (or sudo). The ftrace2bconf.sh will output the bootconfig
to stdout and error messages to stderr, so usually you'll run it as
# ftrace2bconf.sh > ftrace.bconf
Note that some ftrace configurations are not supported. For example,
function-call/callgraph trace/notrace settings are not supported because
the wildcard has been expanded and lost in the ftrace anymore.

Add a bconf2ftrace.sh under tools/bootconfig/scripts which generates
a shell script to setup boot-time trace from bootconfig file for testing
the bootconfig.
bconf2ftrace.sh will take a bootconfig file (includes boot-time tracing)
and convert it into a shell-script which is almost same as the boot-time
tracer does.
If --apply option is given, it also tries to apply those command to the
running kernel, which requires the root privilege (or sudo).
For example, if you just want to confirm the shell commands, save
the output as below.
# bconf2ftrace.sh ftrace.bconf > ftrace.sh
Or, you can apply it directly.
# bconf2ftrace.sh --apply ftrace.bconf
Note that some boot-time tracing parameters under kernel.* are not able
to set via tracefs nor procfs (e.g. tp_printk, traceoff_on_warning.),
so those are ignored.

- The ring buffer is no longer disabled when reading the trace file.
The trace_pipe file was made to be used for live tracing and reading
as it acted like the normal producer/consumer. As the trace file
would not consume the data, the easy way of handling it was to just
disable writes to the ring buffer. This came to a surprise to the
BPF folks who complained about lost events due to reading.
This is no longer an issue. If someone wants to keep the old disabling
there's a new option "pause-on-trace" that can be set.
- New set_ftrace_notrace_pid file. PIDs in this file will not be traced
by the function tracer. Similar to set_ftrace_pid, which makes the
function tracer only trace those tasks with PIDs in the file, the
set_ftrace_notrace_pid does the reverse.
- New set_event_notrace_pid file. PIDs in this file will cause events
not to be traced if triggered by a task with a matching PID.
Similar to the set_event_pid file but will not be traced.
Note, sched_waking and sched_switch events may still be trace if
one of the tasks referenced by those events contains a PID that
is allowed to be traced.
Tracing related features:
- New bootconfig option, that is attached to the initrd file.
If bootconfig is on the command line, then the initrd file
is searched looking for a bootconfig appended at the end.
- New GPU tracepoint infrastructure to help the gfx drivers to get
off debugfs (acked by Greg Kroah-Hartman)
Other minor updates and fixes.

that is not human readable.

can decode it and show the error message with line number and columns.

Add append value operator "+=" support to bootconfig syntax.
With this operator, user can add new value to the key as
an entry of array instead of overwriting.
For example,
foo = bar
...
foo += baz
Then the key "foo" has "bar" and "baz" values as an array.

Currently, bootconfig adds a new value on the existing key to the tail of an
array. But this looks a bit confusing because an admin can easily rewrite
the original value in the same config file.
This rejects the following value re-definition.
key = value1
...
key = value2
You should rewrite value1 to value2 in this case.

Add bootconfig magic word to the end of bootconfig on initrd
image for indicating explicitly the bootconfig is there.
Also tools/bootconfig treats wrong size or wrong checksum or
parse error as an error, because if there is a bootconfig magic
word, there must be a bootconfig.
The bootconfig magic word is "#BOOTCONFIG\n", 12 bytes word.
Thus the block image of the initrd file with bootconfig is
as follows.
[Initrd][bootconfig][size][csum][#BOOTCONFIG\n]
