[PATCH v6 18/22] tracing/boot: Add synthetic event support

From: Masami Hiramatsu
Date: Fri Jan 10 2020 - 11:07:00 EST


Add synthetic event node support to boot time tracing.
The synthetic event is a kind of event node, but the group
name is "synthetic".

- ftrace.event.synthetic.EVENT.fields = FIELD[, FIELD2...]
Defines new synthetic event with FIELDs. Each field should be
"type varname".

The synthetic node requires "fields" string arraies, which defines
the fields as same as tracing/synth_events interface.
