Merge tag 'trace-v6.2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:

 - Add options to the osnoise tracer:
      - 'panic_on_stop' option that panics the kernel if osnoise is
        greater than some user defined threshold.
      - 'preempt' option, to test noise while preemption is disabled
      - 'irq' option, to test noise when interrupts are disabled

 - Add .percent and .graph suffix to histograms to give different
   outputs

 - Add nohitcount to disable showing hitcount in histogram output

 - Add new __cpumask() to trace event fields to annotate that a unsigned
   long array is a cpumask to user space and should be treated as one.

 - Add trace_trigger kernel command line parameter to enable trace event
   triggers at boot up. Useful to trace stack traces, disable tracing
   and take snapshots.

 - Fix x86/kmmio mmio tracer to work with the updates to lockdep

 - Unify the panic and die notifiers

 - Add back ftrace_expect reference that is used to extract more
   information in the ftrace_bug() code.

 - Have trigger filter parsing errors show up in the tracing error log.

 - Updated MAINTAINERS file to add kernel tracing mailing list and
   patchwork info

 - Use IDA to keep track of event type numbers.

 - And minor fixes and clean ups

+	trace_trigger=[trigger-list]
+			[FTRACE] Add a event trigger on specific events.
+			Set a trigger on top of a specific event, with an optional
+			filter.
+
+			The format is is "trace_trigger=<event>.<trigger>[ if <filter>],..."
+			Where more than one trigger may be specified that are comma deliminated.
+
+			For example:
+
+			  trace_trigger="sched_switch.stacktrace if prev_state == 2"
+
+			The above will enable the "stacktrace" trigger on the "sched_switch"
+			event but only trigger it if the "prev_state" of the "sched_switch"
+			event is "2" (TASK_UNINTERUPTIBLE).

 			[FTRACE] enable this option to disable tracing when a
