From 09879758d8ac345d7f08709bfcd2fbe29e96cae4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Lukas Bulwahn Date: Wed, 5 Nov 2025 10:24:28 +0100 Subject: [PATCH 1/4] MAINTAINERS: add tracepoint core-api doc files to TRACING The files in Documentation/core-api/ are by virtue of their top-level directory part of the Documentation section in MAINTAINERS. Each file in Documentation/core-api/ should however also have a further section in MAINTAINERS it belongs to, which fits to the technical area of the documented API in that file. The tracepoint.rst provides some explanation to tracepoints defined in selected files under include/trace/events/, which itself is part of the TRACING section. So, add this core-api document to TRACING.
