+ * The TRACE_EVENT macro is broken up into 5 parts.
+ *
+ * name: name of the trace point. This is also how to enable the tracepoint.
+ * A function called trace_foo_bar() will be created.
+ *
+ * proto: the prototype of the function trace_foo_bar()
+ * Here it is trace_foo_bar(char *foo, int bar).
+ *
+ * args: must match the arguments in the prototype.
+ * Here it is simply "foo, bar".
+ *
+ * struct: This defines the way the data will be stored in the ring buffer.
+ * The items declared here become part of a special structure
+ * called "__entry", which can be used in the fast_assign part of the
+ * TRACE_EVENT macro.
+ *
+ * Here are the currently defined types you can use:
+ *
+ * __field : Is broken up into type and name. Where type can be any
+ * primitive type (integer, long or pointer).
+ *
+ * __field(int, foo)
+ *
+ * __entry->foo = 5;
+ *
+ * __field_struct : This can be any static complex data type (struct, union
+ * but not an array). Be careful using complex types, as each
+ * event is limited in size, and copying large amounts of data
+ * into the ring buffer can slow things down.
+ *
+ * __field_struct(struct bar, foo)
+ *
+ * __entry->bar.x = y;
+
+ * __array: There are three fields (type, name, size). The type is the
+ * type of elements in the array, the name is the name of the array.
+ * size is the number of items in the array (not the total size).
+ *
+ * __array( char, foo, 10) is the same as saying: char foo[10];
+ *
+ * Assigning arrays can be done like any array:
+ *
+ * __entry->foo[0] = 'a';
+ *
+ * memcpy(__entry->foo, bar, 10);
+ *
+ * __dynamic_array: This is similar to array, but can vary its size from
+ * instance to instance of the tracepoint being called.
+ * Like __array, this too has three elements (type, name, size);
+ * type is the type of the element, name is the name of the array.
+ * The size is different than __array. It is not a static number,
+ * but the algorithm to figure out the length of the array for the
+ * specific instance of tracepoint. Again, size is the number of
+ * items in the array, not the total length in bytes.
+ *
+ * __dynamic_array( int, foo, bar) is similar to: int foo[bar];
+ *
+ * Note, unlike arrays, you must use the __get_dynamic_array() macro
+ * to access the array.
+ *
+ * memcpy(__get_dynamic_array(foo), bar, 10);
+ *
+ * Notice, that "__entry" is not needed here.
+ *
+ * __string: This is a special kind of __dynamic_array. It expects to
+ * have a null terminated character array passed to it (it allows
+ * for NULL too, which would be converted into "(null)"). __string
+ * takes two parameter (name, src), where name is the name of
+ * the string saved, and src is the string to copy into the
+ * ring buffer.
+ *
+ * __string(foo, bar) is similar to: strcpy(foo, bar)
+ *
+ * To assign a string, use the helper macro __assign_str().
+ *
+ * __assign_str(foo, bar);
+ *
+ * In most cases, the __assign_str() macro will take the same
+ * parameters as the __string() macro had to declare the string.
+ *
+ * __vstring: This is similar to __string() but instead of taking a
+ * dynamic length, it takes a variable list va_list 'va' variable.
+ * Some event callers already have a message from parameters saved
+ * in a va_list. Passing in the format and the va_list variable
+ * will save just enough on the ring buffer for that string.
+ * Note, the va variable used is a pointer to a va_list, not
+ * to the va_list directly.
+ *
+ * (va_list *va)
+ *
+ * __vstring(foo, fmt, va) is similar to: vsnprintf(foo, fmt, va)
+ *
+ * To assign the string, use the helper macro __assign_vstr().
+ *
+ * __assign_vstr(foo, fmt, va);
+ *
+ * In most cases, the __assign_vstr() macro will take the same
+ * parameters as the __vstring() macro had to declare the string.
+ * Use __get_str() to retrieve the __vstring() just like it would for
+ * __string().
+ *
+ * __string_len: This is a helper to a __dynamic_array, but it understands
+ * that the array has characters in it, and with the combined
+ * use of __assign_str_len(), it will allocate 'len' + 1 bytes
+ * in the ring buffer and add a '\0' to the string. This is
+ * useful if the string being saved has no terminating '\0' byte.
+ * It requires that the length of the string is known as it acts
+ * like a memcpy().
+ *
+ * Declared with:
+ *
+ * __string_len(foo, bar, len)
+ *
+ * To assign this string, use the helper macro __assign_str_len().
+ *
+ * __assign_str_len(foo, bar, len);
+ *
+ * Then len + 1 is allocated to the ring buffer, and a nul terminating
+ * byte is added. This is similar to:
+ *
+ * memcpy(__get_str(foo), bar, len);
+ * __get_str(foo)[len] = 0;
+ *
+ * The advantage of using this over __dynamic_array, is that it
+ * takes care of allocating the extra byte on the ring buffer
+ * for the '\0' terminating byte, and __get_str(foo) can be used
+ * in the TP_printk().
+ *
+ * __bitmask: This is another kind of __dynamic_array, but it expects
+ * an array of longs, and the number of bits to parse. It takes
+ * two parameters (name, nr_bits), where name is the name of the
+ * bitmask to save, and the nr_bits is the number of bits to record.
+ *
+ * __bitmask(target_cpu, nr_cpumask_bits)
+ *
+ * To assign a bitmask, use the __assign_bitmask() helper macro.
+ *
+ * __assign_bitmask(target_cpus, cpumask_bits(bar), nr_cpumask_bits);
+ *
+ *
+ * fast_assign: This is a C like function that is used to store the items
+ * into the ring buffer. A special variable called "__entry" will be the
+ * structure that points into the ring buffer and has the same fields as
+ * described by the struct part of TRACE_EVENT above.
+ *
+ * printk: This is a way to print out the data in pretty print. This is
+ * useful if the system crashes and you are logging via a serial line,
+ * the data can be printed to the console using this "printk" method.
+ * This is also used to print out the data from the trace files.
+ * Again, the __entry macro is used to access the data from the ring buffer.
+ *
+ * Note, __dynamic_array, __string, and __bitmask require special helpers
+ * to access the data.
+ *
+ * For __dynamic_array(int, foo, bar) use __get_dynamic_array(foo)
+ * Use __get_dynamic_array_len(foo) to get the length of the array
+ * saved. Note, __get_dynamic_array_len() returns the total allocated
+ * length of the dynamic array; __print_array() expects the second
+ * parameter to be the number of elements. To get that, the array length
+ * needs to be divided by the element size.
+ *
+ * For __string(foo, bar) use __get_str(foo)
+ *
+ * For __bitmask(target_cpus, nr_cpumask_bits) use __get_bitmask(target_cpus)
+ *
+ *
+ * Note, that for both the assign and the printk, __entry is the handler
+ * to the data structure in the ring buffer, and is defined by the
+ * TP_STRUCT__entry.
