Merge tag 'trace-v5.10' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace
Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: "Updates for tracing and bootconfig: - Add support for "bool" type in synthetic events - Add per instance tracing for bootconfig - Support perf-style return probe ("SYMBOL%return") in kprobes and uprobes - Allow for kprobes to be enabled earlier in boot up - Added tracepoint helper function to allow testing if tracepoints are enabled in headers - Synthetic events can now have dynamic strings (variable length) - Various fixes and cleanups" * tag 'trace-v5.10' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: (58 commits) tracing: support "bool" type in synthetic trace events selftests/ftrace: Add test case for synthetic event syntax errors tracing: Handle synthetic event array field type checking correctly selftests/ftrace: Change synthetic event name for inter-event-combined test tracing: Add synthetic event error logging tracing: Check that the synthetic event and field names are legal tracing: Move is_good_name() from trace_probe.h to trace.h tracing: Don't show dynamic string internals in synthetic event description tracing: Fix some typos in comments tracing/boot: Add ftrace.instance.*.alloc_snapshot option tracing: Fix race in trace_open and buffer resize call tracing: Check return value of __create_val_fields() before using its result tracing: Fix synthetic print fmt check for use of __get_str() tracing: Remove a pointless assignment ftrace: ftrace_global_list is renamed to ftrace_ops_list ftrace: Format variable declarations of ftrace_allocate_records ftrace: Simplify the calculation of page number for ftrace_page->records ftrace: Simplify the dyn_ftrace->flags macro ftrace: Simplify the hash calculation ftrace: Use fls() to get the bits for dup_hash() ...
