tracing/boot: Add per-event histogram action options
Add a hist-trigger action syntax support to boot-time tracing. Currently, boot-time tracing supports per-event actions as option strings. However, for the histogram action, it has a special syntax and usually needs a long action definition. To make it readable and fit to the bootconfig syntax, this introduces a new options for histogram. Here are the histogram action options for boot-time tracing. ftrace.[instance.INSTANCE.]event.GROUP.EVENT.hist { keys = <KEY>[,...] values = <VAL>[,...] sort = <SORT-KEY>[,...] size = <ENTRIES> name = <HISTNAME> var { <VAR> = <EXPR> ... } pause|continue|clear onmax|onchange { var = <VAR>; <ACTION> [= <PARAM>] } onmatch { event = <EVENT>; <ACTION> [= <PARAM>] } filter = <FILTER> } Where <ACTION> is one of below; trace = <EVENT>, <ARG1>[, ...] save = <ARG1>[, ...] snapshot Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/162856124106.203126.10501871028479029087.stgit@devnote2Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org>
