- Introduce enum timerlat_tracing_mode
Now that BPF based sampling has been added to timerlat, add an enum to
represent which mode timerlat is running in.
- Add action on timelat threshold feature
A new option, --on-threshold, is added, taking an argument
that further specifies the action. Actions added in this patch are:
- trace[,file=<filename>]: Saves tracefs buffer, optionally taking a
filename.
- signal,num=<sig>,pid=<pid>: Sends signal to process. "parent" might
be specified instead of number to send signal to parent process.
- shell,command=<command>: Execute shell command.
- Allow resuming tracing in timerlat bpf
rtla-timerlat BPF program uses a global variable stored in a .bss section to
store whether tracing has been stopped. Map it to allow it to resume tracing
after it has been stopped.
- Add continue action to timerlat
Introduce option to resume tracing after a latency threshold overflow. The
option is implemented as an action named "continue".
- Add action on end feature to timerlat
Implement actions on end next to actions on threshold. A new option,
--on-end is added, parallel to --on-threshold. Instead of being executed
whenever a latency threshold is reached, it is executed at the end of the
measurement.
- Have rtla tests check output with grep
Add argument to the check command in the test suite that takes a regular
expression that the output of rtla command is checked against. This allows
testing for specific information in rtla output in addition to checking the
return value.
- Add tests for timerlat actions
- Update the documentation for the new features

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 reStructuredText 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.
