[PATCH v2 0/2] tracing: Clean up trigger code my merging structures

[Steven Rostedt <rostedt@kernel.org>]

The struct event_command has a callback function called get_trigger_ops().
This callback returns the "trigger_ops" to use for the trigger. These ops
define the trigger function, how to init the trigger, how to print the
trigger and how to free it.

The only reason there's a callback function to get these ops is because
some triggers have two types of operations. One is an "always on"
operation, and the other is a "count down" operation. If a user passes in
a parameter to say how many times the trigger should execute. For example:

  echo stacktrace:5 > events/kmem/kmem_cache_alloc/trigger

It will trigger the stacktrace for the first 5 times the kmem_cache_alloc
event is hit.

Instead of having two different trigger_ops since the only difference
between them is the tigger itself (the print, init and free functions are
all the same), just use a single ops that the event_command points to and
add a function field to the trigger_ops to have a count_func.

When a trigger is added to an event, if there's a count attached to it and
the trigger ops has the count_func field, the data allocated to represent
this trigger will have a new flag set called COUNT.

Then when the trigger executes, it will check if the COUNT data flag is
set, and if so, it will call the ops count_func(). If that returns false,
it returns without executing the trigger.

After making the struct event_trigger_ops be mapped one to one with the
struct event_command, merge the former into the latter.

Changes since v1: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-trace-kernel/20251119031042.328864818@kernel.org

- Removed duplicate declaration of trigger_hist_cmd (Tom Zanussi)
