Hi,

This is v7 of the hist trigger snapshot and onchange additions
patchset.  It does a bit of refactoring to address the suggestions
made by Masami in v6.

It also adds an additional patch to update the trigger/inter-event
testcases with SPDX license blurbs.

BTW, I noticed that with the recent kselftest changes, I now get
mangled output when running the selftests, though I can still see well
enough that the tests passed as expected.  This happens with any of
the ftrace selftests and not just the trigger selftests.  In my case,
this is using the stock Terminal in Ubuntu 17.10, in case that helps.
Example output:

  # ./ftracetest test.d/trigger/
  
-e === Ftrace unit tests ===
-e -n [1] event trigger - test inter-event histogram trigger expected fail actions
-e 	[\e[31mXFAIL\e[0m]
-e -n [2] event trigger - test extended error support
-e 	[\e[32mPASS\e[0m]
-e -n [3] event trigger - test field variable support
-e 	[\e[32mPASS\e[0m]
-e -n [4] event trigger - test inter-event combined histogram trigger
-e 	[\e[32mPASS\e[0m]
-e -n [5] event trigger - test multiple actions on hist trigger
-e 	[\e[32mPASS\e[0m]
.
.
.
-e 
-e # of passed:  31
-e # of failed:  0
-e # of unresolved:  0
-e # of untested:  0
-e # of unsupported:  0
-e # of xfailed:  1
-e # of undefined(test bug):  0

v6->v7 changes:

  - Removed unnecessary HANDLER_ONMAX checks from onmax_print()/create()
  - Moved handler assignment to acion_parse()
  - Changed goto in ATION_TRACE case in action_create() to return
  - Changed EINVAL to EEXIST in action_create() ACTION_SAVE case
  - Made the return logic in create_actions() more consistent
  - Merged 'tracing: Move hist trigger key printing into a separate
    function' into 'tracing: Add hist trigger snapshot() action'
  - Updated the new snapshot, onchange, and trace test cases to match
    4.20 kselftest changes.
  - Added new xfail test case that make sure certain unsupported
    handler/action combinations fail as expected.
  - While updating the test cases, realized that the other testcases
    in the inter-event subdir needed SPDX license updates, so added
    them.

v5->v6 changes:

  - Added new Documentation patch explaining handler.action
  - Added new README patch explaining handler.action
  - Added separate snapshot() Documentation
  - Added new snapshot() test case
  - Updated README with snapshote()
  - Added separate onchange() Documentation
  - Added separate onchange() test case
  - Updated README with onchange()
  - Added separate trace() test case
  - Updated README with trace() and <synthetic_event>() syntax

v4->v5 changes:

  - added 'trace' keyword test case
  - added 'onchange' handler test case

v3->v4 changes:

  - added 'trace' keyword for generating synthetic events
  - fix elt_data leak
  - changed cond_update to cond_update_fn_t

v2->v3 changes:

  - fixed problem where trace actions were only being allowed for
    onmatch handlers - now trace actions can be used with any handler.
  - fixed problem where no action was being assigned to onmatch
    handlers if save or snapshot actions were specified.

v1->v2 changes:

  - added missing tracing_cond_snapshot_data() definition for when
    CONFIG_TRACER_SNAPSHOT not defined
  - removed an unnecessary WARN_ON() in track_data_snapshot_print()


Original text:

This patchset adds some useful new functions to the hist
trigger code: a snapshot action and an onchange handler.

In order to make it easier to add these and in the process make the
code more generic, I separated the code into explicit 'handlers' and
'actions', handlers being things like 'onmax' and 'onchange', and
'actions' being things like 'take a snapshot' or 'save some fields'.

The first few patches do that basic refactoring, which make it easier
to add the subsequent changes that arbitrarily combine actions and
handlers.

The fourth patch adds a 'conditional snapshot' capability that via a
new tracing_snaphot_cond() function extends the existing snapshot
code.  It allows the caller to associate some user data with the
snapshot that can be checked and saved in an update() callback whose
return value determines whether the snapshot should be taken or not.

The remaining patches finally add the new snapshot action and onchange
handler functionality - please see those patches for details and some
examples.

Thanks,

Tom
