Tools like 'perf stat' parse the trace point format files defined in /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/s390/.../format to handle the print fmt: statement. The kernel provides a library in directory linux/tools/lib/traceevent/* for this reason. This library can not handle structures or unions defined in the TRACE_EVENT/TP_STRUCT__entry macros with __field_struct macro. There is no possibility to extract a structure member (which might be a bit field) since there is no packing information nor bit field offset by parsing the printf fmt line. Therefore rewrite the TRACE_EVENT macro and add the __field macro for the necessary members. Keep the __fieldstruct macro to extract the complete structure when dumps are analysed. Note that the same information is displayed, this is no interface change.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
