Subject: [for-next][PATCH 25/25] tracing: Unbreak user events
Date: Wed, 29 Mar 2023 15:45:41 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230329194554.139185152@goodmis.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20230329194516.146147554@goodmis.org
From: "Steven Rostedt (Google)" <rostedt@goodmis.org>
The user events was added a bit prematurely, and there were a few kernel
developers that had issues with it. The API also needed a bit of work to
make sure it would be stable. It was decided to make user events "broken"
until this was settled. Now it has a new API that appears to be as stable
as it will be without the use of a crystal ball. It's being used within
Microsoft as is, which means the API has had some testing in real world
use cases. It went through many discussions in the bi-weekly tracing
meetings, and there's been no more comments about updates.
I feel this is good to go.

User trace events are user-defined trace events that
can be used like an existing kernel trace event. User trace
