From: Srikar Dronamraju <srikar@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

is_delete and is_return can take utmost 2 values and are better of
being a boolean than a int. There are no functional changes.

From: Srikar Dronamraju <srikar@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

Move parts of trace_kprobe.c that can be shared with upcoming
trace_uprobe.c. Common code to kernel/trace/trace_probe.h and
kernel/trace/trace_probe.c. There are no functional changes.

Signed-off-by: Srikar Dronamraju <srikar@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

Implements trace_event support for uprobes. In its current form it can
be used to put probes at a specified offset in a file and dump the
required registers when the code flow reaches the probed address.

The following example shows how to dump the instruction pointer and %ax
a register at the probed text address.  Here we are trying to probe
zfree in /bin/zsh

# cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/
# cat /proc/`pgrep  zsh`/maps | grep /bin/zsh | grep r-xp
00400000-0048a000 r-xp 00000000 08:03 130904 /bin/zsh
# objdump -T /bin/zsh | grep -w zfree
0000000000446420 g    DF .text  0000000000000012  Base        zfree
# echo 'p /bin/zsh:0x46420 %ip %ax' > uprobe_events
# cat uprobe_events

# echo 1 > events/uprobes/enable

+		Uprobe-tracer: Uprobe-based Event Tracing
+		=========================================
+                 Documentation written by Srikar Dronamraju
+
+Overview
+--------
+Uprobe based trace events are similar to kprobe based trace events.
+To enable this feature, build your kernel with CONFIG_UPROBE_EVENTS=y.
+
+Similar to the kprobe-event tracer, this doesn't need to be activated via
+current_tracer. Instead of that, add probe points via
+/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events, and enable it via
+/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/uprobes/<EVENT>/enabled.
+
+However unlike kprobe-event tracer, the uprobe event interface expects the
+user to calculate the offset of the probepoint in the object
+
+Synopsis of uprobe_tracer
+-------------------------
+  p[:[GRP/]EVENT] PATH:SYMBOL[+offs] [FETCHARGS]	: Set a probe
+
+ GRP		: Group name. If omitted, use "uprobes" for it.
+ EVENT		: Event name. If omitted, the event name is generated
+		  based on SYMBOL+offs.
+ PATH		: path to an executable or a library.
+ SYMBOL[+offs]	: Symbol+offset where the probe is inserted.
+
+ FETCHARGS	: Arguments. Each probe can have up to 128 args.
+  %REG		: Fetch register REG
+
+Event Profiling
+---------------
+ You can check the total number of probe hits and probe miss-hits via
+/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_profile.
+ The first column is event name, the second is the number of probe hits,
+the third is the number of probe miss-hits.
+
+Usage examples
+--------------
+To add a probe as a new event, write a new definition to uprobe_events
+as below.
+
+  echo 'p: /bin/bash:0x4245c0' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events
+
+ This sets a uprobe at an offset of 0x4245c0 in the executable /bin/bash
+
+  echo > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events
+
+ This clears all probe points.
+
+The following example shows how to dump the instruction pointer and %ax
+a register at the probed text address.  Here we are trying to probe
+function zfree in /bin/zsh
+
+    # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/
+    # cat /proc/`pgrep  zsh`/maps | grep /bin/zsh | grep r-xp
+    00400000-0048a000 r-xp 00000000 08:03 130904 /bin/zsh
+    # objdump -T /bin/zsh | grep -w zfree
+    0000000000446420 g    DF .text  0000000000000012  Base        zfree
+
+0x46420 is the offset of zfree in object /bin/zsh that is loaded at
+0x00400000. Hence the command to probe would be :
+
+    # echo 'p /bin/zsh:0x46420 %ip %ax' > uprobe_events
+
+Please note: User has to explicitly calculate the offset of the probepoint
+in the object. We can see the events that are registered by looking at the
+uprobe_events file.
+
+    # cat uprobe_events
+    p:uprobes/p_zsh_0x46420 /bin/zsh:0x0000000000046420
+
+Right after definition, each event is disabled by default. For tracing these
+events, you need to enable it by:
+
+    # echo 1 > events/uprobes/enable
+
+Lets disable the event after sleeping for some time.
+    # sleep 20
+    # echo 0 > events/uprobes/enable
+
+And you can see the traced information via /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace.
+
+    # cat trace
+    # tracer: nop
+    #
+    #           TASK-PID    CPU#    TIMESTAMP  FUNCTION

Implements trace_event support for uprobes. In its current form it can
be used to put probes at a specified offset in a file and dump the
required registers when the code flow reaches the probed address.

The following example shows how to dump the instruction pointer and %ax
a register at the probed text address.  Here we are trying to probe
zfree in /bin/zsh

# cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/
# cat /proc/`pgrep  zsh`/maps | grep /bin/zsh | grep r-xp
00400000-0048a000 r-xp 00000000 08:03 130904 /bin/zsh
# objdump -T /bin/zsh | grep -w zfree
0000000000446420 g    DF .text  0000000000000012  Base        zfree
# echo 'p /bin/zsh:0x46420 %ip %ax' > uprobe_events
# cat uprobe_events
p:uprobes/p_zsh_0x46420 /bin/zsh:0x0000000000046420
# echo 1 > events/uprobes/enable
# sleep 20

+		Uprobe-tracer: Uprobe-based Event Tracing
+		=========================================
+                 Documentation written by Srikar Dronamraju
+
+Overview
+--------
+Uprobe based trace events are similar to kprobe based trace events.
+To enable this feature, build your kernel with CONFIG_UPROBE_EVENTS=y.
+
+Similar to the kprobe-event tracer, this doesn't need to be activated via
+current_tracer. Instead of that, add probe points via
+/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events, and enable it via
+/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/uprobes/<EVENT>/enabled.
+
+However unlike kprobe-event tracer, the uprobe event interface expects the
+user to calculate the offset of the probepoint in the object
+
+Synopsis of uprobe_tracer
+-------------------------
+  p[:[GRP/]EVENT] PATH:SYMBOL[+offs] [FETCHARGS]	: Set a probe
+
+ GRP		: Group name. If omitted, use "uprobes" for it.
+ EVENT		: Event name. If omitted, the event name is generated
+		  based on SYMBOL+offs.
+ PATH		: path to an executable or a library.
+ SYMBOL[+offs]	: Symbol+offset where the probe is inserted.
+
+ FETCHARGS	: Arguments. Each probe can have up to 128 args.
+  %REG		: Fetch register REG
+
+Event Profiling
+---------------
+ You can check the total number of probe hits and probe miss-hits via
+/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_profile.
+ The first column is event name, the second is the number of probe hits,
+the third is the number of probe miss-hits.
+
+Usage examples
+--------------
+To add a probe as a new event, write a new definition to uprobe_events
+as below.
+
+  echo 'p: /bin/bash:0x4245c0' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events
+
+ This sets a uprobe at an offset of 0x4245c0 in the executable /bin/bash
+
+  echo > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events
+
+ This clears all probe points.
+
+The following example shows how to dump the instruction pointer and %ax
+a register at the probed text address.  Here we are trying to probe
+function zfree in /bin/zsh
+
+    # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/
+    # cat /proc/`pgrep  zsh`/maps | grep /bin/zsh | grep r-xp
+    00400000-0048a000 r-xp 00000000 08:03 130904 /bin/zsh
+    # objdump -T /bin/zsh | grep -w zfree
+    0000000000446420 g    DF .text  0000000000000012  Base        zfree
+
+0x46420 is the offset of zfree in object /bin/zsh that is loaded at
+0x00400000. Hence the command to probe would be :
+
+    # echo 'p /bin/zsh:0x46420 %ip %ax' > uprobe_events
+
+Please note: User has to explicitly calculate the offset of the probepoint
+in the object. We can see the events that are registered by looking at the
+uprobe_events file.
+
+    # cat uprobe_events
+    p:uprobes/p_zsh_0x46420 /bin/zsh:0x0000000000046420
+
+Right after definition, each event is disabled by default. For tracing these
+events, you need to enable it by:
+
+    # echo 1 > events/uprobes/enable
+
+Lets disable the event after sleeping for some time.
+    # sleep 20
+    # echo 0 > events/uprobes/enable
+
+And you can see the traced information via /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace.
+
+    # cat trace
+    # tracer: nop

Implements trace_event support for uprobes. In its current form it can
be used to put probes at a specified offset in a file and dump the
required registers when the code flow reaches the probed address.

The following example shows how to dump the instruction pointer and %ax
a register at the probed text address.  Here we are trying to probe
zfree in /bin/zsh

# cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/
# cat /proc/`pgrep  zsh`/maps | grep /bin/zsh | grep r-xp
00400000-0048a000 r-xp 00000000 08:03 130904 /bin/zsh
# objdump -T /bin/zsh | grep -w zfree
0000000000446420 g    DF .text  0000000000000012  Base        zfree
# echo 'p /bin/zsh:0x46420 %ip %ax' > uprobe_events
# cat uprobe_events
p:uprobes/p_zsh_0x46420 /bin/zsh:0x0000000000046420

+		Uprobe-tracer: Uprobe-based Event Tracing
+		=========================================
+                 Documentation written by Srikar Dronamraju
+
+Overview
+--------
+Uprobe based trace events are similar to kprobe based trace events.
+To enable this feature, build your kernel with CONFIG_UPROBE_EVENTS=y.
+
+Similar to the kprobe-event tracer, this doesn't need to be activated via
+current_tracer. Instead of that, add probe points via
+/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events, and enable it via
+/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/uprobes/<EVENT>/enabled.
+
+However unlike kprobe-event tracer, the uprobe event interface expects the
+user to calculate the offset of the probepoint in the object
+
+Synopsis of uprobe_tracer
+-------------------------
+  p[:[GRP/]EVENT] PATH:SYMBOL[+offs] [FETCHARGS]	: Set a probe
+
+ GRP		: Group name. If omitted, use "uprobes" for it.
+ EVENT		: Event name. If omitted, the event name is generated
+		  based on SYMBOL+offs.
+ PATH		: path to an executable or a library.
+ SYMBOL[+offs]	: Symbol+offset where the probe is inserted.
+
+ FETCHARGS	: Arguments. Each probe can have up to 128 args.
+  %REG		: Fetch register REG
+
+Event Profiling
+---------------
+ You can check the total number of probe hits and probe miss-hits via
+/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_profile.
+ The first column is event name, the second is the number of probe hits,
+the third is the number of probe miss-hits.
+
+Usage examples
+--------------
+To add a probe as a new event, write a new definition to uprobe_events
+as below.
+
+  echo 'p: /bin/bash:0x4245c0' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events
+
+ This sets a uprobe at an offset of 0x4245c0 in the executable /bin/bash
+
+  echo > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events
+
+ This clears all probe points.
+
+The following example shows how to dump the instruction pointer and %ax
+a register at the probed text address.  Here we are trying to probe
+function zfree in /bin/zsh
+
+    # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/
+    # cat /proc/`pgrep  zsh`/maps | grep /bin/zsh | grep r-xp
+    00400000-0048a000 r-xp 00000000 08:03 130904 /bin/zsh
+    # objdump -T /bin/zsh | grep -w zfree
+    0000000000446420 g    DF .text  0000000000000012  Base        zfree
+
+0x46420 is the offset of zfree in object /bin/zsh that is loaded at
+0x00400000. Hence the command to probe would be :
+
+    # echo 'p /bin/zsh:0x46420 %ip %ax' > uprobe_events
+
+Please note: User has to explicitly calculate the offset of the probepoint
+in the object. We can see the events that are registered by looking at the
+uprobe_events file.
+
+    # cat uprobe_events
+    p:uprobes/p_zsh_0x46420 /bin/zsh:0x0000000000046420
+
+Right after definition, each event is disabled by default. For tracing these
+events, you need to enable it by:
+
+    # echo 1 > events/uprobes/enable
+
+Lets disable the event after sleeping for some time.
+    # sleep 20
+    # echo 0 > events/uprobes/enable
+
+And you can see the traced information via /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace.

Implements trace_event support for uprobes. In its current form it can
be used to put probes at a specified offset in a file and dump the
required registers when the code flow reaches the probed address.

The following example shows how to dump the instruction pointer and %ax
a register at the probed text address.  Here we are trying to probe
zfree in /bin/zsh

# cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/
# cat /proc/`pgrep  zsh`/maps | grep /bin/zsh | grep r-xp
00400000-0048a000 r-xp 00000000 08:03 130904 /bin/zsh
# objdump -T /bin/zsh | grep -w zfree
0000000000446420 g    DF .text  0000000000000012  Base        zfree
# echo 'p /bin/zsh:0x46420 %ip %ax' > uprobe_events
# cat uprobe_events
p:uprobes/p_zsh_0x46420 /bin/zsh:0x0000000000046420

+		Uprobe-tracer: Uprobe-based Event Tracing
+		=========================================
+                 Documentation written by Srikar Dronamraju
+
+Overview
+--------
+Uprobe based trace events are similar to kprobe based trace events.
+To enable this feature, build your kernel with CONFIG_UPROBE_EVENTS=y.
+
+Similar to the kprobe-event tracer, this doesn't need to be activated via
+current_tracer. Instead of that, add probe points via
+/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events, and enable it via
+/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/uprobes/<EVENT>/enabled.
+
+However unlike kprobe-event tracer, the uprobe event interface expects the
+user to calculate the offset of the probepoint in the object
+
+Synopsis of uprobe_tracer
+-------------------------
+  p[:[GRP/]EVENT] PATH:SYMBOL[+offs] [FETCHARGS]	: Set a probe
+
+ GRP		: Group name. If omitted, use "uprobes" for it.
+ EVENT		: Event name. If omitted, the event name is generated
+		  based on SYMBOL+offs.
+ PATH		: path to an executable or a library.
+ SYMBOL[+offs]	: Symbol+offset where the probe is inserted.
+
+ FETCHARGS	: Arguments. Each probe can have up to 128 args.
+  %REG		: Fetch register REG
+
+Event Profiling
+---------------
+ You can check the total number of probe hits and probe miss-hits via
+/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_profile.
+ The first column is event name, the second is the number of probe hits,
+the third is the number of probe miss-hits.
+
+Usage examples
+--------------
+To add a probe as a new event, write a new definition to uprobe_events
+as below.
+
+  echo 'p: /bin/bash:0x4245c0' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events
+
+ This sets a uprobe at an offset of 0x4245c0 in the executable /bin/bash
+
+  echo > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events
+
+ This clears all probe points.
+
+The following example shows how to dump the instruction pointer and %ax
+a register at the probed text address.  Here we are trying to probe
+function zfree in /bin/zsh
+
+    # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/
+    # cat /proc/`pgrep  zsh`/maps | grep /bin/zsh | grep r-xp
+    00400000-0048a000 r-xp 00000000 08:03 130904 /bin/zsh
+    # objdump -T /bin/zsh | grep -w zfree
+    0000000000446420 g    DF .text  0000000000000012  Base        zfree
+
+0x46420 is the offset of zfree in object /bin/zsh that is loaded at
+0x00400000. Hence the command to probe would be :
+
+    # echo 'p /bin/zsh:0x46420 %ip %ax' > uprobe_events
+
+Please note: User has to explicitly calculate the offset of the probepoint
+in the object. We can see the events that are registered by looking at the
+uprobe_events file.
+
+    # cat uprobe_events
+    p:uprobes/p_zsh_0x46420 /bin/zsh:0x0000000000046420
+
+Right after definition, each event is disabled by default. For tracing these
+events, you need to enable it by:
+
+    # echo 1 > events/uprobes/enable
+
+Lets disable the event after sleeping for some time.
+    # sleep 20
+    # echo 0 > events/uprobes/enable
+
+And you can see the traced information via /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace.

I had re-posted the tracing bits http://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/16/109
Masami has added his ack to the last patch. So all the three patches are
acked by Masami and Steven Rostedt. 

Also the perf bits  were posted here http://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/16/175. 

Any reason why these arent pulled in?

tracing: Modify is_delete, is_return from int to bool

is_delete and is_return can take utmost 2 values and are better
of being a boolean than a int. There are no functional changes.

tracing: Extract out common code for kprobes/uprobes trace events

Move parts of trace_kprobe.c that can be shared with upcoming
trace_uprobe.c. Common code to kernel/trace/trace_probe.h and
kernel/trace/trace_probe.c. There are no functional changes.

tracing: Extract out common code for kprobes/uprobes trace events

Move parts of trace_kprobe.c that can be shared with upcoming
trace_uprobe.c. Common code to kernel/trace/trace_probe.h and
kernel/trace/trace_probe.c. There are no functional changes.

tracing: Provide trace events interface for uprobes

Implements trace_event support for uprobes. In its current form
it can be used to put probes at a specified offset in a file and
dump the required registers when the code flow reaches the
probed address.

The following example shows how to dump the instruction pointer
and %ax a register at the probed text address.  Here we are
trying to probe zfree in /bin/zsh:

 # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/
 # cat /proc/`pgrep  zsh`/maps | grep /bin/zsh | grep r-xp
 00400000-0048a000 r-xp 00000000 08:03 130904 /bin/zsh
 # objdump -T /bin/zsh | grep -w zfree
 0000000000446420 g    DF .text  0000000000000012  Base
 zfree # echo 'p /bin/zsh:0x46420 %ip %ax' > uprobe_events
 # cat uprobe_events
 p:uprobes/p_zsh_0x46420 /bin/zsh:0x0000000000046420
 # echo 1 > events/uprobes/enable
 # sleep 20
 # echo 0 > events/uprobes/enable
 # cat trace
 # tracer: nop
 #
 #           TASK-PID    CPU#    TIMESTAMP  FUNCTION
 #              | |       |          |         |

+		Uprobe-tracer: Uprobe-based Event Tracing
+		=========================================
+                 Documentation written by Srikar Dronamraju
+
+Overview
+--------
+Uprobe based trace events are similar to kprobe based trace events.
+To enable this feature, build your kernel with CONFIG_UPROBE_EVENTS=y.
+
+Similar to the kprobe-event tracer, this doesn't need to be activated via
+current_tracer. Instead of that, add probe points via
+/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events, and enable it via
+/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/uprobes/<EVENT>/enabled.
+
+However unlike kprobe-event tracer, the uprobe event interface expects the
+user to calculate the offset of the probepoint in the object
+
+Synopsis of uprobe_tracer
+-------------------------
+  p[:[GRP/]EVENT] PATH:SYMBOL[+offs] [FETCHARGS]	: Set a probe
+
+ GRP		: Group name. If omitted, use "uprobes" for it.
+ EVENT		: Event name. If omitted, the event name is generated
+		  based on SYMBOL+offs.
+ PATH		: path to an executable or a library.
+ SYMBOL[+offs]	: Symbol+offset where the probe is inserted.
+
+ FETCHARGS	: Arguments. Each probe can have up to 128 args.
+  %REG		: Fetch register REG
+
+Event Profiling
+---------------
+ You can check the total number of probe hits and probe miss-hits via
+/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_profile.
+ The first column is event name, the second is the number of probe hits,
+the third is the number of probe miss-hits.
+
+Usage examples
+--------------
+To add a probe as a new event, write a new definition to uprobe_events
+as below.
+
+  echo 'p: /bin/bash:0x4245c0' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events
+
+ This sets a uprobe at an offset of 0x4245c0 in the executable /bin/bash
+
+  echo > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events
+
+ This clears all probe points.
+
+The following example shows how to dump the instruction pointer and %ax
+a register at the probed text address.  Here we are trying to probe
+function zfree in /bin/zsh
+
+    # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/
+    # cat /proc/`pgrep  zsh`/maps | grep /bin/zsh | grep r-xp
+    00400000-0048a000 r-xp 00000000 08:03 130904 /bin/zsh
+    # objdump -T /bin/zsh | grep -w zfree
+    0000000000446420 g    DF .text  0000000000000012  Base        zfree
+
+0x46420 is the offset of zfree in object /bin/zsh that is loaded at
+0x00400000. Hence the command to probe would be :
+
+    # echo 'p /bin/zsh:0x46420 %ip %ax' > uprobe_events
+
+Please note: User has to explicitly calculate the offset of the probepoint
+in the object. We can see the events that are registered by looking at the
+uprobe_events file.
+
+    # cat uprobe_events
+    p:uprobes/p_zsh_0x46420 /bin/zsh:0x0000000000046420
+
+Right after definition, each event is disabled by default. For tracing these
+events, you need to enable it by:
+
+    # echo 1 > events/uprobes/enable
+
+Lets disable the event after sleeping for some time.
+    # sleep 20
+    # echo 0 > events/uprobes/enable
+
+And you can see the traced information via /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace.
+
+    # cat trace
+    # tracer: nop
+    #
+    #           TASK-PID    CPU#    TIMESTAMP  FUNCTION
+    #              | |       |          |         |

tracing: Provide trace events interface for uprobes

Implements trace_event support for uprobes. In its current form
it can be used to put probes at a specified offset in a file and
dump the required registers when the code flow reaches the
probed address.

The following example shows how to dump the instruction pointer
and %ax a register at the probed text address.  Here we are
trying to probe zfree in /bin/zsh:

 # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/
 # cat /proc/`pgrep  zsh`/maps | grep /bin/zsh | grep r-xp
 00400000-0048a000 r-xp 00000000 08:03 130904 /bin/zsh
 # objdump -T /bin/zsh | grep -w zfree
 0000000000446420 g    DF .text  0000000000000012  Base
 zfree # echo 'p /bin/zsh:0x46420 %ip %ax' > uprobe_events
 # cat uprobe_events
 p:uprobes/p_zsh_0x46420 /bin/zsh:0x0000000000046420
 # echo 1 > events/uprobes/enable
 # sleep 20
 # echo 0 > events/uprobes/enable
 # cat trace
 # tracer: nop
 #

+		Uprobe-tracer: Uprobe-based Event Tracing
+		=========================================
+                 Documentation written by Srikar Dronamraju
+
+Overview
+--------
+Uprobe based trace events are similar to kprobe based trace events.
+To enable this feature, build your kernel with CONFIG_UPROBE_EVENTS=y.
+
+Similar to the kprobe-event tracer, this doesn't need to be activated via
+current_tracer. Instead of that, add probe points via
+/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events, and enable it via
+/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/uprobes/<EVENT>/enabled.
+
+However unlike kprobe-event tracer, the uprobe event interface expects the
+user to calculate the offset of the probepoint in the object
+
+Synopsis of uprobe_tracer
+-------------------------
+  p[:[GRP/]EVENT] PATH:SYMBOL[+offs] [FETCHARGS]	: Set a probe
+
+ GRP		: Group name. If omitted, use "uprobes" for it.
+ EVENT		: Event name. If omitted, the event name is generated
+		  based on SYMBOL+offs.
+ PATH		: path to an executable or a library.
+ SYMBOL[+offs]	: Symbol+offset where the probe is inserted.
+
+ FETCHARGS	: Arguments. Each probe can have up to 128 args.
+  %REG		: Fetch register REG
+
+Event Profiling
+---------------
+ You can check the total number of probe hits and probe miss-hits via
+/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_profile.
+ The first column is event name, the second is the number of probe hits,
+the third is the number of probe miss-hits.
+
+Usage examples
+--------------
+To add a probe as a new event, write a new definition to uprobe_events
+as below.
+
+  echo 'p: /bin/bash:0x4245c0' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events
+
+ This sets a uprobe at an offset of 0x4245c0 in the executable /bin/bash
+
+  echo > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events
+
+ This clears all probe points.
+
+The following example shows how to dump the instruction pointer and %ax
+a register at the probed text address.  Here we are trying to probe
+function zfree in /bin/zsh
+
+    # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/
+    # cat /proc/`pgrep  zsh`/maps | grep /bin/zsh | grep r-xp
+    00400000-0048a000 r-xp 00000000 08:03 130904 /bin/zsh
+    # objdump -T /bin/zsh | grep -w zfree
+    0000000000446420 g    DF .text  0000000000000012  Base        zfree
+
+0x46420 is the offset of zfree in object /bin/zsh that is loaded at
+0x00400000. Hence the command to probe would be :
+
+    # echo 'p /bin/zsh:0x46420 %ip %ax' > uprobe_events
+
+Please note: User has to explicitly calculate the offset of the probepoint
+in the object. We can see the events that are registered by looking at the
+uprobe_events file.
+
+    # cat uprobe_events
+    p:uprobes/p_zsh_0x46420 /bin/zsh:0x0000000000046420
+
+Right after definition, each event is disabled by default. For tracing these
+events, you need to enable it by:
+
+    # echo 1 > events/uprobes/enable
+
+Lets disable the event after sleeping for some time.
+    # sleep 20
+    # echo 0 > events/uprobes/enable
+
+And you can see the traced information via /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace.
+
+    # cat trace
+    # tracer: nop
+    #
+    #           TASK-PID    CPU#    TIMESTAMP  FUNCTION
+    #              | |       |          |         |

this looks to be the only UPROBE_EVENTS instance, is that a typo?

I think I corrected this in the latest posting I sent on April 16th.

Ingo,

	Since you had asked me to send the patch series again after
handling comments and acks, I had sent the set. At that time, I had
handled this change as part of a comment from Stephen Boyd.  I had
mentioned this in the changelog.

	Would it be possible for you to accept the patches from 
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/16/109
with message id: 
Message-Id: <20120416091936.19174.2641.sendpatchset@srdronam.in.ibm.com> 

Currently you seem to have picked from 
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/11/117

Thanks and Regards

Mind sending a delta patch instead? The patches are now 
reasonably well tested and don't seem to break in any functional 
way, so unless the delta patch is really ugly we should try that 
instead of rebasing the branch.

is_delete and is_return can take utmost 2 values and are better of
being a boolean than a int. There are no functional changes.

From: Srikar Dronamraju <srikar@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

is_delete and is_return can take utmost 2 values and are better of
being a boolean than a int. There are no functional changes.

Acked-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
