e9a4062e15 rtla: Add --trace-buffer-size option
Add the option allow the users to set a different buffer size for the
trace. For example, in large systems, the user might be interested on
reducing the trace buffer to avoid large tracing files.

The buffer size is specified in kB, and it is only affecting
the tracing instance.

The function trace_set_buffer_size() appears on libtracefs v1.6,
so increase the minimum required version on Makefile.config.

fb9e90a67e rtla/timerlat: Make user-space threads the default
After ther -u addition, most of the known users are setting it. And
it makes sense, as it adds more information, and inherits the default
setup for the threads - e.g., cgroups configs.

Thus, if the user-space interface is available, enable -u. Otherwise,
use the in-kernel thread.

Add the -k option to allow the user to request kernel-threads.

cdbf71962b rtla: Add the --warm-up option
On many cases, the results right after the startup are different
from the rest of the execution, biasing the results. For example,
on osnoise, the scheduler might take some time to adapt to the new
busy-loop workload.

Add the --warm-up <seconds> option, adding a warm-up phase (in
seconds) where the workload is set, but the results are discarded.

a23c05fd76 tools/rtla: Add -U/--user-load option to timerlat
The timerlat tracer provides an interface for any application to wait
for the timerlat's periodic wakeup. Currently, rtla timerlat uses it
to dispatch its user-space workload (-u option).

But as the tracer interface is generic, rtla timerlat can also be used
to monitor any workload that uses it. For example, a user might
place their own workload to wait on the tracer interface, and
monitor the results with rtla timerlat.

Add the -U option to rtla timerlat top and hist. With this option, rtla
timerlat will not dispatch its workload but only setting up the
system, waiting for a user to dispatch its workload.

The sample code in this patch is an example of python application
that loops in the timerlat tracer fd.

To use it, dispatch:

 # rtla timerlat -U

In a terminal, then run the python program on another terminal,
specifying the CPU to run it. For example, setting on CPU 1:

 #./timerlat_load.py 1

Then rtla timerlat will start printing the statistics of the
./timerlat_load.py app.

An interesting point is that the "Ret user Timer Latency" value
is the overall response time of the load. The sample load does
a memory copy to exemplify that.

The stop tracing options on rtla timerlat works in this setup
as well, including auto analysis.

9fa48a2477 rtla/timerlat: Add auto-analysis only option
Parsing and formating timerlat data might consume a reasonable
amount of CPU time on very large systems, or when timerlat
has a too short period.

Add an option to run timerlat with auto-analysis enabled while
skipping the statistics parsing. In this mode, rtla timerlat
periodically checks if the tracing is on, going to sleep waiting
for the stop tracing condition to stop tracing, or for the
tracing session to finish.

If the stop tracing condition is hit, the tool prints the auto
analysis. Otherwise, the tool prints the max observed latency and
exit. The max observed latency is captured via tracing_max_latency.

fe4d0d5dde rtla/Makefile: Properly handle dependencies
Linus had a problem compiling RTLA, saying:

"[...] I wish the tracing tools would do a bit more package
checking and helpful error messages too, rather than just
fail with:

    fatal error: tracefs.h: No such file or directory"

Which is indeed not a helpful message. Update the Makefile, adding
proper checks for the dependencies, with useful information about
how to resolve possible problems.

For example, the previous error is now reported as:

    $ make
    ********************************************
    ** NOTICE: libtracefs version 1.3 or higher not found
    **
    ** Consider installing the latest libtracefs from your
    ** distribution, e.g., 'dnf install libtracefs' on Fedora,
    ** or from source:
    **
    **  https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/libs/libtrace/libtracefs.git/
    **
    ********************************************

These messages are inspired by the ones used on trace-cmd, as suggested
by Stevel Rostedt.

Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/CAHk-=whxmA86E=csNv76DuxX_wYsg8mW15oUs3XTabu2Yc80yw@mail.gmail.com/

Changes from V1:
 - Moved the rst2man check to the install phase (when it is used).
 - Removed the procps-ng lib check [1] as it is being removed.

1a75489365 rtla: Add --trigger support
Add --trigger option. This option enables a trace event trigger to the
previous -e sys:event argument, allowing some advanced tracing options.

For instance, in a system with CPUs 2:23 isolated, it is possible to get
a stack trace of thread wakeup targeting those CPUs while running
osnoise with the following command line:

 # osnoise top -c 2-23 -a 50 -e sched:sched_wakeup --trigger="stacktrace if target_cpu >= 2"

This option is available for all current tools.

51d64c3a18 rtla: Add -e/--event support
Add -e/--event option. This option enables an event in the trace (-t)
session. The argument can be a specific event, e.g., -e sched:sched_switch,
or all events of a system group, e.g., -e sched. Multiple -e are allowed.
It is only active when -t or -a are set.

This option is available for all current tools.

173a3b0148 rtla/timerlat: Add the automatic trace option
Add the -a/--auto <arg in us> option. This option sets some commonly
used options while debugging the system. It aims to help users produce
reports in the field, reducing the number of arguments passed to the
tool in the first approach to a problem.

It is equivalent to setting osnoise/stop_tracing_total_us and print_stack
with the argument, and saving the trace to timerlat_trace.txt file if the
trace is stopped automatically.

dd48f316a1 rtla/hist: Make -E the short version of --entries
Currently, --entries uses -e as the short version in the hist mode of
timerlat and osnoise tools. But as -e is already used to enable events
on trace sessions by other tools, thus let's keep it available for the
same usage for all rtla tools.

Make -E the short version of --entries for hist mode on all tools.

Note: rtla was merged in this merge window, so rtla was not released yet.

941518d653 docs: Hook the RTLA documents into the kernel docs build
The RTLA documents were added to Documentation/ but never hooked into the
rest of the docs build, leading to a bunch of warnings like:

  Documentation/tools/rtla/rtla-osnoise.rst: WARNING: document isn't included in any toctree

Add some basic glue to wire these documents into the build so that they are
available with the rest of the rendered docs.  No attempt has been made to
turn the RTLA docs into proper RST files rather than warmed-over man pages;
that is an exercise for the future.

d40d48e1f1 rtla: Add Documentation
Adds the basis for rtla documentation. This patch also
includes the rtla(1) man page.

As suggested by Jonathan Corbet, we are placing these man
pages at Documentation/tools/rtla, using rst format. It
is not linked to the official documentation, though.

The Makefile is based on bpftool's Documentation one.
