Merge tag 'trace-v6.6' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
 "User visible changes:

   - Added a way to easier filter with cpumasks:

       # echo 'cpumask & CPUS{17-42}' > /sys/kernel/tracing/events/ipi_send_cpumask/filter

   - Show actual size of ring buffer after modifying the ring buffer
     size via buffer_size_kb.

     Currently it just returns what was written, but the actual size
     rounds up to the sub buffer size. Show that real size instead.

  Major changes:

   - Added "eventfs". This is the code that handles the inodes and
     dentries of tracefs/events directory. As there are thousands of
     events, and each event has several inodes and dentries that
     currently exist even when tracing is never used, they take up
     precious memory. Instead, eventfs will allocate the inodes and
     dentries in a JIT way (similar to what procfs does). There is now
     metadata that handles the events and subdirectories, and will
     create the inodes and dentries when they are used.

     Note, I also have patches that remove the subdirectory meta data,
     but will wait till the next merge window before applying them. It's
     a little more complex, and I want to make sure the dynamic code
     works properly before adding more complexity, making it easier to
     revert if need be.

  Minor changes:

   - Optimization to user event list traversal

   - Remove intermediate permission of tracefs files (note the
     intermediate permission removes all access to the files so it is
     not a security concern, but just a clean up)

   - Add the complex fix to FORTIFY_SOURCE to the kernel stack event
     logic

   - Other minor cleanups"
