Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
 "This release cycle is rather small.  Just a few fixes to tracing.

  The big change is the addition of the hwlat tracer. It not only
  detects SMIs, but also other latency that's caused by the hardware. I
  have detected some latency from large boxes having bus contention"

* tag 'trace-v4.9' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace:
  tracing: Call traceoff trigger after event is recorded
  ftrace/scripts: Add helper script to bisect function tracing problem functions
  tracing: Have max_latency be defined for HWLAT_TRACER as well
  tracing: Add NMI tracing in hwlat detector
  tracing: Have hwlat trace migrate across tracing_cpumask CPUs
  tracing: Add documentation for hwlat_detector tracer
  tracing: Added hardware latency tracer
  ftrace: Access ret_stack-&gt;subtime only in the function profiler
  function_graph: Handle TRACE_BPUTS in print_graph_comment

These type casts can be used for integer arguments for explicitly
showing them in hexadecimal digits in formatted text.

split allows to move expensive update of 'struct trace_entry' to later phase.
Repurpose unused 1st argument of perf_tp_event() to indicate event type.

While splitting use temp variable 'rctx' instead of '*rctx' to avoid
unnecessary loads done by the compiler due to -fno-strict-aliasing

When manually added uprobe point with zero address, 'uprobe_events'
output '(null)' instead of 0x00000000:

  # echo p:probe_libc/abs_0 /path/to/lib.bin:0x0 arg1=%ax &gt; \

<title>tracing, perf: Implement BPF programs attached to uprobes</title>

<id>04a22fae4cbc1f7d3f7471e9b36359f98bd3f043</id>
<content type='text'>
By copying BPF related operation to uprobe processing path, this patch
allow users attach BPF programs to uprobes like what they are already
doing on kprobes.

After this patch, users are allowed to use PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_BPF on a
uprobe perf event. Which make it possible to profile user space programs
and kernel events together using BPF.

Because of this patch, CONFIG_BPF_EVENTS should be selected by
CONFIG_UPROBE_EVENT to ensure trace_call_bpf() is compiled even if
KPROBE_EVENT is not set.

The name "ftrace" really refers to the function hook infrastructure. It
is not about the trace_events. The ftrace_trigger_soft_disabled() tests if a
trace_event is soft disabled (called but not traced), and returns true if
it is. It has nothing to do with function tracing and should be renamed.
