    tracing/boot: Add boot-time tracing · 9c5b9d3d
    Masami Hiramatsu authored
    Setup tracing options via extra boot config in addition to kernel
    command line.
    
    This adds following commands support. These are applied to
    the global trace instance.
    
     - ftrace.options = OPT1[,OPT2...]
       Enable given ftrace options.
    
     - ftrace.trace_clock = CLOCK
       Set given CLOCK to ftrace's trace_clock.
    
     - ftrace.buffer_size = SIZE
       Configure ftrace buffer size to SIZE. You can use "KB" or "MB"
       for that SIZE.
    
     - ftrace.events = EVENT[, EVENT2...]
       Enable given events on boot. You can use a wild card in EVENT.
    
     - ftrace.tracer = TRACER
       Set TRACER to current tracer on boot. (e.g. function)
    
    Note that this is NOT replacing the kernel parameters, because
    this boot config based setting is later than that. If you want to
    trace earlier boot events, you still need kernel parameters.
