Merge tag 'trace-ringbuffer-v6.10' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace

Pull tracing ring buffer updates from Steven Rostedt:
"Add ring_buffer memory mappings.

The tracing ring buffer was created based on being mostly used with
the splice system call. It is broken up into page ordered sub-buffers
and the reader swaps a new sub-buffer with an existing sub-buffer
that's part of the write buffer. It then has total access to the
swapped out sub-buffer and can do copyless movements of the memory
into other mediums (file system, network, etc).

The buffer is great for passing around the ring buffer contents in the
kernel, but is not so good for when the consumer is the user space
task itself.

A new interface is added that allows user space to memory map the ring
buffer. It will get all the write sub-buffers as well as reader
sub-buffer (that is not written to). It can send an ioctl to change
which sub-buffer is the new reader sub-buffer.

The ring buffer is read only to user space. It only needs to call the
ioctl when it is finished with a sub-buffer and needs a new sub-buffer
that the writer will not write over.

A self test program was also created for testing and can be used as an
example for the interface to user space. The libtracefs (external to
the kernel) also has code that interacts with this, although it is
disabled until the interface is in a official release. It can be
enabled by compiling the library with a special flag. This was used
for testing applications that perform better with the buffer being
mapped.

Memory mapped buffers have limitations. The main one is that it can
not be used with the snapshot logic. If the buffer is mapped,
snapshots will be disabled. If any logic is set to trigger snapshots
on a buffer, that buffer will not be allowed to be mapped"

It is now possible to mmap() a ring-buffer to stream its content. Add
some documentation and a code example.
