Synthetic events are user-defined events generated from hist trigger
variables saved from one or more other events.
To define a synthetic event, the user writes a simple specification
consisting of the name of the new event along with one or more
variables and their type(s), to the tracing/synthetic_events file.
For instance, the following creates a new event named 'wakeup_latency'
with 3 fields: lat, pid, and prio:
# echo 'wakeup_latency u64 lat; pid_t pid; int prio' >> \
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/synthetic_events
Reading the tracing/synthetic_events file lists all the
currently-defined synthetic events, in this case the event we defined
above:
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/synthetic_events
wakeup_latency u64 lat; pid_t pid; int prio
At this point, the synthetic event is ready to use, and a histogram
can be defined using it:
# echo 'hist:keys=pid,prio,lat.log2:sort=pid,lat' >> \
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/synthetic/wakeup_latency/trigger
The new event is created under the tracing/events/synthetic/ directory
and looks and behaves just like any other event:
# ls /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/synthetic/wakeup_latency
enable filter format hist id trigger
Although a histogram can be defined for it, nothing will happen until
an action tracing that event via the trace_synth() function occurs.
The trace_synth() function is very similar to all the other trace_*
invocations spread throughout the kernel, except in this case the
trace_ function and its corresponding tracepoint isn't statically
generated but defined by the user at run-time.
How this can be automatically hooked up via a hist trigger 'action' is
discussed in a subsequent patch.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
