Merge tag 'docs/v5.10-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mchehab/linux-media

Pull documentation updates from Mauro Carvalho Chehab:
 "A series of patches addressing warnings produced by make htmldocs.
  This includes:

   - kernel-doc markup fixes

   - ReST fixes

   - Updates at the build system in order to support newer versions of
     the docs build toolchain (Sphinx)

  After this series, the number of html build warnings should reduce
  significantly, and building with Sphinx 3.1 or later should now be
  supported (although it is still recommended to use Sphinx 2.4.4).

  As agreed with Jon, I should be sending you a late pull request by the
  end of the merge window addressing remaining issues with docs build,
  as there are a number of warning fixes that depends on pull requests
  that should be happening along the merge window.

  The end goal is to have a clean htmldocs build on Kernel 5.10.

  PS. It should be noticed that Sphinx 3.0 is not currently supported,
  as it lacks support for C domain namespaces. Such feature, needed in
  order to document uAPI system calls with Sphinx 3.x, was added only on
  Sphinx 3.1"

Mauro Carvalho Chehab d7faad159a docs: trace-uses.rst: remove bogus c-domain tags
There are some c-domain tags that are wrong. While this won't
cause problems with Sphinx < 3.0, this cause troubles with
newer versions, as the C parser won't recognize the contents
of the tag, and will drop it from the output.

Let's just place them at literal blocks.

Merge tag 'kernel-clone-v5.9' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux

Pull kernel_clone() updates from Christian Brauner:
 "During the v5.9 merge window we reworked the process creation
  codepaths across multiple architectures. After this work we were only
  left with the _do_fork() helper based on the struct kernel_clone_args
  calling convention. As was pointed out _do_fork() isn't valid
  kernelese especially for a helper that isn't just static.

  This series removes the _do_fork() helper and introduces the new
  kernel_clone() helper. The process creation cleanup didn't change the
  name to something more reasonable mainly because _do_fork() was used
  in quite a few places. So sending this as a separate series seemed the
  better strategy.

  I originally intended to send this early in the v5.9 development cycle
  after the merge window had closed but given that this was touching
  quite a few places I decided to defer this until the v5.10 merge
  window"

Tom Zanussi bd82631d7c tracing: Add support for dynamic strings to synthetic events
Currently, sythetic events only support static string fields such as:

  # echo 'test_latency u64 lat; char somename[32]' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/synthetic_events

Which is fine, but wastes a lot of space in the event.

It also prevents the most commonly-defined strings in the existing
trace events e.g. those defined using __string(), from being passed to
synthetic events via the trace() action.

With this change, synthetic events with dynamic fields can be defined:

  # echo 'test_latency u64 lat; char somename[]' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/synthetic_events

And the trace() action can be used to generate events using either
dynamic or static strings:

  # echo 'hist:keys=name:lat=common_timestamp.usecs-$ts0:onmatch(sys.event).test_latency($lat,name)' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events

The synthetic event dynamic strings are implemented in the same way as
the existing __data_loc strings and appear as such in the format file.

[ <rostedt@goodmis.org>: added __set_synth_event_print_fmt() changes:

  I added the following to make it work with trace-cmd. Dynamic strings
  must have __get_str() for events in the print_fmt otherwise it can't be
  parsed correctly. ]

Steven Rostedt (VMware) afbe797317 tracepoints: Add helper to test if tracepoint is enabled in a header
As tracepoints are discouraged from being added in a header because it can
cause side effects if other tracepoints are in headers, as well as bloat the
kernel as the trace_<tracepoint>() function is not a small inline, the common
workaround is to add a function call that calls a wrapper function in a
C file that then calls the tracepoint. But as function calls add overhead,
this function should only be called when the tracepoint in question is
enabled. To get around this overhead, a static_branch can be used to only
have the tracepoint wrapper get called when the tracepoint is enabled.

Add a tracepoint_enabled(tp) macro that gets passed the name of the
tracepoint, and this becomes a static_branch that is enabled when the
tracepoint is enabled and is a nop when the tracepoint is disabled.

- Just like some media documents, this file is dual licensed
  with GPL and GFDL. As right now the GFDL SPDX definition is
  bogus (as it doesn't tell anything about invariant parts),
  let's not use SPDX here. Let's use, instead, the same test
  as we have on media.
- Convert title to ReST format;
- use :field:  markup;
- Proper mark literal blocks as such;
- Add it to trace/index.rst file.

Linus Torvalds aa1a8ce533 New tracing features:
- The ring buffer is no longer disabled when reading the trace file.
    The trace_pipe file was made to be used for live tracing and reading
    as it acted like the normal producer/consumer. As the trace file
    would not consume the data, the easy way of handling it was to just
    disable writes to the ring buffer. This came to a surprise to the
    BPF folks who complained about lost events due to reading.
    This is no longer an issue. If someone wants to keep the old disabling
    there's a new option "pause-on-trace" that can be set.
 
  - New set_ftrace_notrace_pid file. PIDs in this file will not be traced
    by the function tracer. Similar to set_ftrace_pid, which makes the
    function tracer only trace those tasks with PIDs in the file, the
    set_ftrace_notrace_pid does the reverse.
 
  - New set_event_notrace_pid file. PIDs in this file will cause events
    not to be traced if triggered by a task with a matching PID.
    Similar to the set_event_pid file but will not be traced.
    Note, sched_waking and sched_switch events may still be trace if
    one of the tasks referenced by those events contains a PID that
    is allowed to be traced.
 
 Tracing related features:
 
  - New bootconfig option, that is attached to the initrd file.
    If bootconfig is on the command line, then the initrd file
    is searched looking for a bootconfig appended at the end.
 
  - New GPU tracepoint infrastructure to help the gfx drivers to get
    off debugfs (acked by Greg Kroah-Hartman)
 
 Other minor updates and fixes.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
 "New tracing features:

   - The ring buffer is no longer disabled when reading the trace file.

     The trace_pipe file was made to be used for live tracing and
     reading as it acted like the normal producer/consumer. As the trace
     file would not consume the data, the easy way of handling it was to
     just disable writes to the ring buffer.

     This came to a surprise to the BPF folks who complained about lost
     events due to reading. This is no longer an issue. If someone wants
     to keep the old disabling there's a new option "pause-on-trace"
     that can be set.

   - New set_ftrace_notrace_pid file. PIDs in this file will not be
     traced by the function tracer.

     Similar to set_ftrace_pid, which makes the function tracer only
     trace those tasks with PIDs in the file, the set_ftrace_notrace_pid
     does the reverse.

Here is the big set of char/misc/other driver patches for 5.7-rc1.
 
 Lots of things in here, and it's later than expected due to some reverts
 to resolve some reported issues.  All is now clean with no reported
 problems in linux-next.
 
 Included in here is:
 	- interconnect updates
 	- mei driver updates
 	- uio updates
 	- nvmem driver updates
 	- soundwire updates
 	- binderfs updates
 	- coresight updates
 	- habanalabs updates
 	- mhi new bus type and core
 	- extcon driver updates
 	- some Kconfig cleanups
 	- other small misc driver cleanups and updates
 
 As mentioned, all have been in linux-next for a while, and with the last
 two reverts, all is calm and good.

Steven Rostedt (VMware) b396bfdebf tracing: Have hwlat ts be first instance and record count of instances
The hwlat tracer runs a loop of width time during a given window. It then
reports the max latency over a given threshold and records a timestamp. But
this timestamp is the time after the width has finished, and not the time it
actually triggered.

Record the actual time when the latency was greater than the threshold as
well as the number of times it was greater in a given width per window.
