tracing/events/ring-buffer: expose format of ring buffer headers to users
...
Currently, every thing needed to read the binary output from the
ring buffers is available, with the exception of the way the ring
buffers handles itself internally.
This patch creates two special files in the debugfs/tracing/events
directory:
# cat /debug/tracing/events/header_page
field: u64 timestamp; offset:0; size:8;
field: local_t commit; offset:8; size:8;
field: char data; offset:16; size:4080;
# cat /debug/tracing/events/header_event
type : 2 bits
len : 3 bits
time_delta : 27 bits
array : 32 bits
padding : type == 0
time_extend : type == 1
data : type == 3
This is to allow a userspace app to see if the ring buffer format changes
or not.
[ Impact: allow userspace apps to know of ringbuffer format changes ]
