Add support for alias=$somevar where alias can be used as onmatch.xxx($alias). Aliases are a way of creating a new name for an existing variable, for flexibly in making naming more clear in certain cases. For example in the below the user perhaps feels that using $new_lat in the synthetic event invocation is opaque or doesn't fit well stylistically with previous triggers, so creates an alias of $new_lat named $latency and uses that in the call instead: # echo 'hist:keys=next_pid:new_lat=common_timestamp.usecs' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_switch/trigger # echo 'hist:keys=pid:latency=$new_lat: onmatch(sched.sched_switch).wake2($latency,pid)' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/synthetic/wake1/trigger Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/ef20a65d921af3a873a6f1e8c71407c926d5586f.1516069914.git.tom.zanussi@linux.intel.comSigned-off-by:
