[PATCH 0/7] tracing/user_events: Update user_events ABI from

[Beau Belgrave <beaub@linux.microsoft.com>]

This series covers the changes that were brought up once user_events went into
5.18. The largest change is moving away from byte index to a bit index, as
first suggested by Mathieu Desnoyers.

The other changes are either fixes that have accumulated or found by Mathieu.

NOTE: The sample and self-tests do not build unless you manually install
user_events.h into usr/include/linux.

Psuedo code example of typical usage with the new ABI:
struct user_reg reg;

int page_fd = open("user_events_status", O_RDWR);
char *page_data = mmap(NULL, PAGE_SIZE, PROT_READ, MAP_SHARED, page_fd, 0);
close(page_fd);

int data_fd = open("user_events_data", O_RDWR);

reg.size = sizeof(reg);
reg.name_args = (__u64)"test";

ioctl(data_fd, DIAG_IOCSREG, &reg);
int status_id = reg.status_index;
int status_mask = reg.status_mask;
int write_id = reg.write_index;

struct iovec io[2];
io[0].iov_base = &write_id;
io[0].iov_len = sizeof(write_id);
io[1].iov_base = payload;
io[1].iov_len = sizeof(payload);

if (page_data[status_id] & status_mask)
	writev(data_fd, io, 2);
