An overflow (OVF packet) is treated as an error because it represents a
loss of trace data, but there is no loss of synchronization, so the packet
state should be INTEL_PT_STATE_IN_SYNC not INTEL_PT_STATE_ERR_RESYNC.
To support that, some additional variables must be reset, and the FUP
packet that may follow OVF is treated as an FUP event.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
