    Merge tag 'trace-v6.3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace · b72b5fec
    Linus Torvalds authored
    Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
    
     - Add function names as a way to filter function addresses
    
     - Add sample module to test ftrace ops and dynamic trampolines
    
     - Allow stack traces to be passed from beginning event to end event for
       synthetic events. This will allow seeing the stack trace of when a
       task is scheduled out and recorded when it gets scheduled back in.
    
     - Add trace event helper __get_buf() to use as a temporary buffer when
       printing out trace event output.
    
     - Add kernel command line to create trace instances on boot up.
    
     - Add enabling of events to instances created at boot up.
    
     - Add trace_array_puts() to write into instances.
    
     - Allow boot instances to take a snapshot at the end of boot up.
    
     - Allow live patch modules to include trace events
    
     - Minor fixes and clean ups
