2020-07-06	tools lib traceevent: Add plugin for decoding syscalls/sys_enter_futex	Julia Cartwright	1	-0/+1
	The futex syscall is a complicated one. It supports thirteen multiplexed operations, each with different semantics and encodings for the syscalls six arguments. Manually decoding these arguments is tedious and error prone. This plugin provides symbolic names for futex operations, futex flags, and tries to be intelligent about the intent of specific arguments (for example, waking operations use 'val' as an integer count, not just an arbitrary value). It doesn't do a full decode of the FUTEX_WAKE_OP's 'val3' argument, however, this is a good starting point.

2020-07-06	tools lib traceevent: Add plugin for tlb_flush	Steven Rostedt (Red Hat)	1	-0/+1
	The tlb_flush tracepoints uses enums that are not yet known by the traceevent library. Add a plugin to handle that.

2019-09-25	libtraceevent: Move traceevent plugins in its own subdirectory	Tzvetomir Stoyanov (VMware)	1	-0/+10
	All traceevent plugins code is moved to tools/lib/traceevent/plugins subdirectory. It makes traceevent implementation in trace-cmd and in kernel tree consistent. There is no changes in the way libtraceevent and plugins are compiled and installed. Committer notes: Applied fixup provided by Steven, fixing the tools/perf/Makefile.perf target for the plugin dynamic list file. Problem noticed when cross building to aarch64 from a Ubuntu 19.04 container.
