Should add:

I'm planning to add a man page when backporting these patches from
trace-cmd to kernel repo, as there are no libtraceevent man pages in
trace-cmd, they exist only in the kernel tree.

Good point!

Yeah, we'll add a man page when these patches go to the kernel.

I decided to address the comments in trace-cmd repo first, and after
that to backport the patches to the kernel's libtraceevent. That's why
the prefix is trace-cmd.

Actually, even in the trace-cmd repo, they should be labeled
libtraceveent, as they are specific for the libtraceevent portion of
trace-cmd.git. Otherwise everything in the repo would be trace-cmd: ;-)

I've tried to separate out different parts. Anything labeled trace-cmd:
should be for something unique to the trace-cmd executable. If
something is for libtracefs, it should be libtracefs: or tracefs:. If
