Function 'create_hist_field' is called recursively at
trace_events_hist.c:1954 and can return NULL-value that's why we have
to check it to avoid null pointer dereference.

<title>tracing/hist: Fix issue of losting command info in error_log</title>

When input some constructed invalid 'trigger' command, command info
in 'error_log' are lost [1].

The root cause is that there is a path that event_hist_trigger_parse()
is recursely called once and 'last_cmd' which save origin command is
cleared, then later calling of hist_err() will no longer record origin
command info:

  event_hist_trigger_parse() {
    last_cmd_set()  // &lt;1&gt; 'last_cmd' save origin command here at first
    create_actions() {
      onmatch_create() {
        action_create() {
          trace_action_create() {
            trace_action_create_field_var() {
              create_field_var_hist() {
                event_hist_trigger_parse() {  // &lt;2&gt; recursely called once
                  hist_err_clear()  // &lt;3&gt; 'last_cmd' is cleared here
                }
                hist_err()  // &lt;4&gt; No longer find origin command!!!

Since 'glob' is empty string while running into the recurse call, we
can trickly check it and bypass the call of hist_err_clear() to solve it.

<title>tracing/hist: Fix out-of-bound write on 'action_data.var_ref_idx'</title>

<content type='text'>
When generate a synthetic event with many params and then create a trace
action for it [1], kernel panic happened [2].

It is because that in trace_action_create() 'data-&gt;n_params' is up to
SYNTH_FIELDS_MAX (current value is 64), and array 'data-&gt;var_ref_idx'
keeps indices into array 'hist_data-&gt;var_refs' for each synthetic event
param, but the length of 'data-&gt;var_ref_idx' is TRACING_MAP_VARS_MAX
(current value is 16), so out-of-bound write happened when 'data-&gt;n_params'
more than 16. In this case, 'data-&gt;match_data.event' is overwritten and
eventually cause the panic.

To solve the issue, adjust the length of 'data-&gt;var_ref_idx' to be
SYNTH_FIELDS_MAX and add sanity checks to avoid out-of-bound write.

When generate a synthetic event with many params and then create a trace
action for it [1], kernel panic happened [2].

It is because that in trace_action_create() 'data-&gt;n_params' is up to
SYNTH_FIELDS_MAX (current value is 64), and array 'data-&gt;var_ref_idx'
keeps indices into array 'hist_data-&gt;var_refs' for each synthetic event
param, but the length of 'data-&gt;var_ref_idx' is TRACING_MAP_VARS_MAX
(current value is 16), so out-of-bound write happened when 'data-&gt;n_params'
more than 16. In this case, 'data-&gt;match_data.event' is overwritten and
eventually cause the panic.

To solve the issue, adjust the length of 'data-&gt;var_ref_idx' to be
SYNTH_FIELDS_MAX and add sanity checks to avoid out-of-bound write.

Add 'nohitcount' ('NOHC' for short) option for suppressing display of
the raw hitcount column in the histogram.
Note that you must specify at least one value except raw 'hitcount'
when you specify this nohitcount option.

This feature is useful when we need yo undersntand the overall trend
for the histograms of large values.
E.g. this shows the runtime percentage for each tasks.

<title>tracing: Allow multiple hitcount values in histograms</title>

<content type='text'>
The hitcount is treated specially in the histograms - since it's
always expected to be there regardless of whether the user specified
anything or not, it's always added as the first histogram value.

Currently the code doesn't allow it to be added more than once as a
value, which is inconsistent with all the other possible values.  It
would seem to be a pointless thing to want to do, but other features
being added such as percent and graph modifiers don't work properly
with the current hitcount restrictions.

Fix this by allowing multiple hitcounts to be added.

<title>tracing: Fix race where histograms can be called before the event</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 94eedf3dded5 ("tracing: Fix race where eprobes can be called before
the event") fixed an issue where if an event is soft disabled, and the
trigger is being added, there's a small window where the event sees that
there's a trigger but does not see that it requires reading the event yet,
and then calls the trigger with the record == NULL.

This could be solved with adding memory barriers in the hot path, or to
make sure that all the triggers requiring a record check for NULL. The
latter was chosen.

Commit 94eedf3dded5 set the eprobe trigger handle to check for NULL, but
the same needs to be done with histograms.

There are a couple of missing * in comment blocks. Fix these.
Cleans up two clang warnings:
