mainlining shenanigans
9710b2f341
The current histogram expression evaluation logic evaluates the
expression from right to left. This can lead to incorrect results
if the operations are not associative (as is the case for subtraction
and, the now added, division operators).
e.g. 16-8-4-2 should be 2 not 10 --> 16-8-4-2 = ((16-8)-4)-2
64/8/4/2 should be 1 not 16 --> 64/8/4/2 = ((64/8)/4)/2
Division and multiplication are currently limited to single operation
expression due to operator precedence support not yet implemented.
Rework the expression parsing to support the correct evaluation of
expressions containing operators of different precedences; and fix
the associativity error by evaluating expressions with operators of
the same precedence from left to right.
Examples:
(1) echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:a=8,b=4,c=2,d=1,w=$a-$b-$c-$d' \
>> event/trigger
(2) echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:x=$a/$b/3/2' >> event/trigger
(3) echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:y=$a+10/$c*1024' >> event/trigger
(4) echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:z=$a/$b+$c*$d' >> event/trigger

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
