a field event. This is increasingly important for the histogram trigger
work that is being extended.
While auditing trace events, I found that a couple of the xen events
were used as just marking that a function was called, by creating
a static array of size zero. This can play havoc with the tracing
features if these events are used, because a zero size of a static
array is denoted as a special nul terminated dynamic array (this is
what the trace_marker code uses). But since the xen events have no
size, they are not nul terminated, and unexpected results may occur.
As trace events were never intended on being a marker to denote
that a function was hit or not, especially since function tracing
and kprobes can trivially do the same, the best course of action is
to simply remove these events.

Pull tracing fix from Steven Rostedt:
"Some of the ftrace internal events use a zero for a data size of a
field event. This is increasingly important for the histogram trigger
work that is being extended.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
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.
