Subject: [GIT PULL] tracing/tools: Updates for 6.9

Steven,

Tracing tooling updates for 6.9

Tracing:
- Update makefiles for latency-collector and RTLA,
using tools/build/ makefiles like perf does, inheriting
its benefits. For example, having a proper way to
handle dependencies.

- The timerlat tracer has an interface for any tool to use.
rtla timerlat tool uses this interface dispatching its
own threads as workload. But, rtla timerlat could also be
used for any other process. So, add 'rtla timerlat -U'
option, allowing the timerlat tool to measure the latency of
any task using the timerlat tracer interface.

Verification:
- Update makefiles for verification/rv, using tools/build/
makefiles like perf does, inheriting its benefits.
For example, having a proper way to handle dependencies.


Please pull the latest trace-tools-v6.9 tree, which can be found at:

Looks like you just built on top of a random commit from Linus's tree:

commit f6cef5f8c37f58a3bc95b3754c3ae98e086631ca
Merge: 906a93befec8 8f06fb458539
Author: Linus Torvalds <[email protected]>
Date: Sun Mar 17 16:59:33 2024 -0700

Merge tag 'i3c/for-6.9' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/i3c/linux

Linus prefers basing off of real tags or previous pulls from us.

Can you rebase your changes on v6.8 and resend?

$ git checkout v6.8
$ git cherry-pick f6cef5f8c37f58a3bc95b3754c3ae98e086631ca..trace-tools-v6.9

Appears to work fine.

Thanks!

-- Steve

Ack, took note. I will do on top v6.8 tag.

questions: when something go wrong in a pull request....

- Should I keep the old tag, and then do another one with -2
(it seems you do like this), or delete the old tag and send it again
with the same name?

- Should I resend the PULL request with something in the log or
at the Subject saying it is a v2 of the pull request?

I could ask via chat, but I think it is good for the community to
have access to these info.

Thanks!

Just create a new tag.
