Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:

 - kprobes: Restructured stack unwinder to show properly on x86 when a
   stack dump happens from a kretprobe callback.

 - Fix to bootconfig parsing

 - Have tracefs allow owner and group permissions by default (only
   denying others). There's been pressure to allow non root to tracefs
   in a controlled fashion, and using groups is probably the safest.

 - Bootconfig memory managament updates.

 - Bootconfig clean up to have the tools directory be less dependent on
   changes in the kernel tree.

 - Allow perf to be traced by function tracer.

 - Rewrite of function graph tracer to be a callback from the function
   tracer instead of having its own trampoline (this change will happen
   on an arch by arch basis, and currently only x86_64 implements it).

 - Allow multiple direct trampolines (bpf hooks to functions) be batched
   together in one synchronization.

 - Allow histogram triggers to add variables that can perform
   calculations against the event's fields.

 - Use the linker to determine architecture callbacks from the ftrace
   trampoline to allow for proper parameter prototypes and prevent
   warnings from the compiler.

 - Extend histogram triggers to key off of variables.

 - Have trace recursion use bit magic to determine preempt context over
   if branches.

 - Have trace recursion disable preemption as all use cases do anyway.

 - Added testing for verification of tracing utilities.

 - Various small clean ups and fixes.

This avoids using dereference_function_descriptor in the ftrace code

With DYNAMIC_FTRACE, we need to implement ftrace_update_trace_func
and not call ftrace_trace_function() directly, as ftrace doesn't
expect calls to this function during code patching.

As the documentation explained, ftrace_test_recursion_trylock()
and ftrace_test_recursion_unlock() were supposed to disable and
enable preemption properly, however currently this work is done
outside of the function, which could be missing by mistake.

And since the internal using of trace_test_and_set_recursion()
and trace_clear_recursion() also require preemption disabled, we
can just merge the logical.

This patch will make sure the preemption has been disabled when
trace_test_and_set_recursion() return bit &gt;= 0, and
trace_clear_recursion() will enable the preemption if previously
enabled.

ftrace_dyn_arch_init() to cleanup them.

<title>ftrace: Have the callbacks receive a struct ftrace_regs instead of pt_regs</title>

<id>d19ad0775dcd64b49eecf4fa79c17959ebfbd26b</id>
<content type='text'>
In preparation to have arguments of a function passed to callbacks attached
to functions as default, change the default callback prototype to receive a
struct ftrace_regs as the forth parameter instead of a pt_regs.

For callbacks that set the FL_SAVE_REGS flag in their ftrace_ops flags, they
will now need to get the pt_regs via a ftrace_get_regs() helper call. If
this is called by a callback that their ftrace_ops did not have a
FL_SAVE_REGS flag set, it that helper function will return NULL.

This will allow the ftrace_regs to hold enough just to get the parameters
and stack pointer, but without the worry that callbacks may have a pt_regs
that is not completely filled.

<content type='text'>
If a ftrace callback does not supply its own recursion protection and
does not set the RECURSION_SAFE flag in its ftrace_ops, then ftrace will
make a helper trampoline to do so before calling the callback instead of
just calling the callback directly.

The default for ftrace_ops is going to change. It will expect that handlers
provide their own recursion protection, unless its ftrace_ops states
otherwise.

<title>treewide: Convert macro and uses of __section(foo) to __section("foo")</title>

Use a more generic form for __section that requires quotes to avoid
complications with clang and gcc differences.

Remove the quote operator # from compiler_attributes.h __section macro.

Convert all unquoted __section(foo) uses to quoted __section("foo").
Also convert __attribute__((section("foo"))) uses to __section("foo")
even if the __attribute__ has multiple list entry forms.

Conversion done using the script at:
