- osnoise and timerlat updates that will work with the RTLA tool (Real-Time Linux Analysis). Specifically it disconnects the work load (threads that look for latency) from the tracing instances attached to them, allowing for more than one instance to retrieve data from the work load. - Optimization on division in the trace histogram trigger code to use shift and multiply when possible. Also added documentation. - Fix prototype to my_direct_func in direct ftrace trampoline sample code. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iIoEABYIADIWIQRRSw7ePDh/lE+zeZMp5XQQmuv6qgUCYYKWXxQccm9zdGVkdEBn b29kbWlzLm9yZwAKCRAp5XQQmuv6qqJEAP9czpSZ/nFvDjxdGHZAcKKXCFWbGcK5 IF2cHDDwxXjZ/gD+NnpRhR1JPfA55fO52DUJPn2cOU5xOsP6DmJxu6mwDg0= =AKVv -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'trace-v5.16-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace Pull more tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: - osnoise and timerlat updates that will work with the RTLA tool (Real-Time Linux Analysis).

Linux Ftrace Testcases
This is a collection of testcases for ftrace tracing feature in the Linux
kernel. Since ftrace exports interfaces via the debugfs, we just need
shell scripts for testing. Feel free to add new test cases.
Running the ftrace testcases
============================
At first, you need to be the root user to run this script.
To run all testcases:
$ sudo ./ftracetest
To run specific testcases:
# ./ftracetest test.d/basic3.tc
Or you can also run testcases under given directory:
# ./ftracetest test.d/kprobe/
Contributing new testcases
==========================
Copy test.d/template to your testcase (whose filename must have *.tc
extension) and rewrite the test description line.
* The working directory of the script is <debugfs>/tracing/.
* Take care with side effects as the tests are run with root privilege.
* The tests should not run for a long period of time (more than 1 min.)
These are to be unit tests.
* You can add a directory for your testcases under test.d/ if needed.
* The test cases should run on dash (busybox shell) for testing on
minimal cross-build environments.
* Note that the tests are run with "set -e" (errexit) option. If any
command fails, the test will be terminated immediately.
* The tests can return some result codes instead of pass or fail by
using exit_unresolved, exit_untested, exit_unsupported and exit_xfail.
Result code
===========
Ftracetest supports following result codes.
* PASS: The test succeeded as expected. The test which exits with 0 is
counted as passed test.
* FAIL: The test failed, but was expected to succeed. The test which exits
with !0 is counted as failed test.
* UNRESOLVED: The test produced unclear or intermidiate results.
for example, the test was interrupted
or the test depends on a previous test, which failed.
or the test was set up incorrectly
The test which is in above situation, must call exit_unresolved.
* UNTESTED: The test was not run, currently just a placeholder.
In this case, the test must call exit_untested.
* UNSUPPORTED: The test failed because of lack of feature.
In this case, the test must call exit_unsupported.
* XFAIL: The test failed, and was expected to fail.
To return XFAIL, call exit_xfail from the test.
There are some sample test scripts for result code under samples/.
You can also run samples as below:
# ./ftracetest samples/
