Linux kernel source tree
- Refactor da_monitor to minimise macros Complete refactor of da_monitor.h to reduce reliance on macros generating functions. Use generic static functions and uses the preprocessor only when strictly necessary (e.g. for tracepoint handlers). The change essentially relies on functions with generic names (e.g. da_handle) instead of monitor-specific as well adding the need to define constant (e.g. MONITOR_NAME, MONITOR_TYPE) before including the header rather than calling macros that would define functions. Also adapt monitors and documentation accordingly. - Cleanup DA code generation scripts Clean up functions in dot2c removing reimplementations of trivial library functions (__buff_to_string) and removing some other unused intermediate steps. - Annotate functions with types in the rvgen python scripts - Remove superfluous assignments and cleanup generated code The rvgen scripts generate a superfluous assignment to 0 for enum variables and don't add commas to the last elements, which is against the kernel coding standards. Change the generation process for a better compliance and slightly simpler logic. - Remove superfluous declarations from generated code The monitor container source files contained a declaration and a definition for the rv_monitor variable. The former is superfluous and was removed. - Fix reference to outdated documentation s/da_monitor_synthesis.rst/monitor_synthesis.rst in comment in da_monitor.h -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iIoEABYKADIWIQRRSw7ePDh/lE+zeZMp5XQQmuv6qgUCaY3j9xQccm9zdGVkdEBn b29kbWlzLm9yZwAKCRAp5XQQmuv6qup5AP0afGb2gr+SOIOu0dIAXjGLg3cbz0C4 J4bDx6H0cdgXywD+Maassm0nKIgDnOBLwtuwL0kEUAxllqn7RCZ2+ARwbAU= =dfCl -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'trace-rv-v7.0' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace Pull runtime verifier updates from Steven Rostedt: - Refactor da_monitor to minimize macros Complete refactor of da_monitor.h to reduce reliance on macros generating functions.
