Currently, the notification of a new max latency is sent from
timerlat's IRQ handler anytime a new max latency is found.
While this behavior is not wrong, the send IPI overhead itself
will increase the thread latency and that is not the desired
effect (tracing overhead).
Moreover, the thread will notify a new max latency again because
the thread latency as it is always higher than the IRQ latency
that woke it up.
The only case in which it is helpful to notify a new max latency
from IRQ is when stop tracing (for the IRQ) is set, as in this
case, the thread will not be dispatched.
Notify a new max latency from the IRQ handler only if stop tracing is
set for the IRQ handler.

Setting set_event_pid with trailing whitespace lead to endless write
system calls like below.
$ strace echo "123 " > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/set_event_pid
execve("/usr/bin/echo", ["echo", "123 "], ...) = 0
...
write(1, "123 \n", 5) = 4

write(1, "\n", 1) = 0
write(1, "\n", 1) = 0
write(1, "\n", 1) = 0
write(1, "\n", 1) = 0

This is because, the result of trace_get_user's are not returned when it
read at least one pid. To fix it, update read variable even if
parser->idx == 0.

In create_var_ref(), init_var_ref() is called to initialize the fields
of variable ref_field, which is allocated in the previous function call
to create_hist_field(). Function init_var_ref() allocates the
corresponding fields such as ref_field->system, but frees these fields
when the function encounters an error. The caller later calls
destroy_hist_field() to conduct error handling, which frees the fields
and the variable itself. This results in double free of the fields which
are already freed in the previous function.
Fix this by storing NULL to the corresponding fields when they are freed
in init_var_ref().

The tracing_set_trace_write() function just removes the trailing whitespace
from the user supplied tracer name, but the leading whitespace should also
be removed.
In addition, if the user supplied tracer name contains only a few
whitespace characters, the first one will not be removed using the current
method, which results it a single whitespace character left in the buf.
To fix all of these issues, we use strim() to correctly remove both the
leading and trailing whitespace.

the event is read, gives a false positive on %pISpc when reading data that

When the new logic was made to handle deltas of events from interrupts
that interrupted other events, it required 64 bit local atomics.
Unfortunately, 64 bit local atomics are expensive on 32 bit architectures.
Thus, commit 10464b4aa6 ("ring-buffer: Add rb_time_t 64 bit operations
for speeding up 32 bit") created a type of seq lock timer for 32 bits.
It used two 32 bit local atomics, but required 2 bits from them each for
synchronization, making it only 60 bits.
Add a new "msb" field to hold the extra 4 bits that are cut off.

There's an absolute timestamp event in the ring buffer, but this only
saves 59 bits of the timestamp, as the 5 MSB is used for meta data
(stating it is an absolute time stamp). This was never an issue as all the
clocks currently in use never used those 5 MSB. But now there's a new
clock (TAI) that does.
To handle this case, when reading an absolute timestamp, a previous full
timestamp is passed in, and the 5 MSB of that timestamp is OR'd to the
absolute timestamp (if any of the 5 MSB are set), and then to test for
overflow, if the new result is smaller than the passed in previous
timestamp, then 1 << 59 is added to it.
All the extra processing is done on the reader "slow" path, with the
exception of the "too big delta" check, and the reading of timestamps
for histograms.
Note, libtraceevent will need to be updated to handle this case as well.
But this is not a user space regression, as user space was never able to
handle any timestamps that used more than 59 bits.

To prepare for support asynchronous tracer_init_tracefs initcall,
avoid calling create_trace_option_files before __update_tracer_options.
Otherwise, create_trace_option_files will show warning because
some tracers in trace_types list are already in tr->topts.
For example, hwlat_tracer call register_tracer in late_initcall,
and global_trace.dir is already created in tracing_init_dentry,
hwlat_tracer will be put into tr->topts.
Then if the __update_tracer_options is executed after hwlat_tracer
registered, create_trace_option_files find that hwlat_tracer is
already in tr->topts.

Code for registering triggers assumes it's possible to register more
than one trigger at a time. In fact, it's unimplemented and there
doesn't seem to be a reason to do that.
Remove the n_registered param from event_trigger_register() and fix up
callers.
Doing so simplifies the logic in event_trigger_register to the point
that it just becomes a wrapper calling event_command.reg().
It also removes the problematic call to event_command.unreg() in case
of failure. A new function, event_trigger_unregister() is also added
for callers to call themselves.
The changes to trace_events_hist.c simply allow compilation; a
separate patch follows which updates the hist triggers to work
correctly with the new changes.

After being merged, user_events become more visible to a wider audience
that have concerns with the current API.
It is too late to fix this for this release, but instead of a full
revert, just mark it as BROKEN (which prevents it from being selected in
make config). Then we can work finding a better API. If that fails,
then it will need to be completely reverted.
To not have the code silently bitrot, still allow building it with
COMPILE_TEST.
And to prevent the uapi header from being installed, then later changed,
and then have an old distro user space see the old version, move the
header file out of the uapi directory.
Surround the include with CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST to the current location,
but when the BROKEN tag is taken off, it will use the uapi directory,
and fail to compile. This is a good way to remind us to move the header
back.

ftrace_graph_is_dead() is used on hot paths, it just reads a variable
in memory and is not worth suffering function call constraints.
For instance, at entry of prepare_ftrace_return(), inlining it avoids
saving prepare_ftrace_return() parameters to stack and restoring them
after calling ftrace_graph_is_dead().
While at it using a static branch is even more performant and is
rather well adapted considering that the returned value will almost
never change.
Inline ftrace_graph_is_dead() and replace 'kill_ftrace_graph' bool
by a static branch.
The performance improvement is noticeable.

"Add support for Intel CET-IBT, available since Tigerlake (11th gen),
which is a coarse grained, hardware based, forward edge
Control-Flow-Integrity mechanism where any indirect CALL/JMP must
target an ENDBR instruction or suffer #CP.
Additionally, since Alderlake (12th gen)/Sapphire-Rapids, speculation
is limited to 2 instructions (and typically fewer) on branch targets
not starting with ENDBR. CET-IBT also limits speculation of the next
sequential instruction after the indirect CALL/JMP [1].
CET-IBT is fundamentally incompatible with retpolines, but provides,
as described above, speculation limits itself"
