====================
Introduce mbox tracepoints for Octeontx2
This patchset adds tracepoints support for mailbox.
In Octeontx2, PFs and VFs need to communicate with AF
for allocating and freeing resources. Once all the
configuration is done by AF for a PF/VF then packet I/O
can happen on PF/VF queues. When an interface
is brought up many mailbox messages are sent
to AF for initializing queues. Say a VF is brought up
then each message is sent to PF and PF forwards to
AF and response also traverses from AF to PF and then VF.
To aid debugging, tracepoints are added at places where
messages are allocated, sent and message interrupts.
Below is the trace of one of the messages from VF to AF
and AF response back to VF:
~ # echo 1 > /sys/kernel/tracing/events/rvu/enable
~ # ifconfig eth20 up
[ 279.379559] eth20 NIC Link is UP 10000 Mbps Full duplex
~ # cat /sys/kernel/tracing/trace
ifconfig-171 [000] .... 275.753345: otx2_msg_alloc: [0002:02:00.1] msg:(0x400) size:40
ifconfig-171 [000] ...1 275.753347: otx2_msg_send: [0002:02:00.1] sent 1 msg(s) of size:48
<idle>-0 [001] dNh1 275.753356: otx2_msg_interrupt: [0002:02:00.0] mbox interrupt VF(s) to PF (0x1)
kworker/u9:1-90 [001] ...1 275.753364: otx2_msg_send: [0002:02:00.0] sent 1 msg(s) of size:48

kworker/u9:2-167 [002] .... 275.753535: otx2_msg_process: [0002:01:00.0] msg:(0x400) error:0
kworker/u9:2-167 [002] ...1 275.753537: otx2_msg_send: [0002:01:00.0] sent 1 msg(s) of size:32
<idle>-0 [003] d.h1 275.753543: otx2_msg_interrupt: [0002:02:00.0] mbox interrupt AF to PF (0x1)
<idle>-0 [001] d.h2 275.754376: otx2_msg_interrupt: [0002:02:00.1] mbox interrupt PF to VF (0x1)
v3 changes:
Removed EXPORT_TRACEPOINT_SYMBOLS of otx2_msg_send and otx2_msg_check
since they are called locally only
v2 changes:
Removed otx2_msg_err tracepoint since it is similar to devlink_hwerr
and it will be used instead when devlink supported is added.

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.
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.
