Merge tag 'trace-v6.3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace
Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Add function names as a way to filter function addresses
- Add sample module to test ftrace ops and dynamic trampolines
- Allow stack traces to be passed from beginning event to end event for
synthetic events. This will allow seeing the stack trace of when a
task is scheduled out and recorded when it gets scheduled back in.
- Add trace event helper __get_buf() to use as a temporary buffer when
printing out trace event output.
- Add kernel command line to create trace instances on boot up.
- Add enabling of events to instances created at boot up.
- Add trace_array_puts() to write into instances.
- Allow boot instances to take a snapshot at the end of boot up.
- Allow live patch modules to include trace events
- Minor fixes and clean ups
