Pull more tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: - osnoise and timerlat updates that will work with the RTLA tool (Real-Time Linux Analysis). Specifically it disconnects the work load (threads that look for latency) from the tracing instances attached to them, allowing for more than one instance to retrieve data from the work load. - Optimization on division in the trace histogram trigger code to use shift and multiply when possible. Also added documentation. - Fix prototype to my_direct_func in direct ftrace trampoline sample code. * tag 'trace-v5.16-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: ftrace/samples: Add missing prototype for my_direct_func tracing/selftests: Add tests for hist trigger expression parsing tracing/histogram: Document hist trigger variables tracing/histogram: Update division by 0 documentation tracing/histogram: Optimize division by constants tracing/osnoise: Remove PREEMPT_RT ifdefs from inside functions tracing/osnoise: Remove STACKTRACE ifdefs from inside functions tracing/osnoise: Allow multiple instances of the same tracer tracing/osnoise: Remove TIMERLAT ifdefs from inside functions tracing/osnoise: Support a list of trace_array *tr tracing/osnoise: Use start/stop_per_cpu_kthreads() on osnoise_cpus_write() tracing/osnoise: Split workload start from the tracer start tracing/osnoise: Improve comments about barrier need for NMI callbacks tracing/osnoise: Do not follow tracing_cpumask
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.
