Tzvetomir Stoyanov (VMware) 2808e31ec1 ring-buffer: Add interface for configuring trace sub buffer size
The trace ring buffer sub page size can be configured, per trace
instance. A new ftrace file "buffer_subbuf_order" is added to get and
set the size of the ring buffer sub page for current trace instance.
The size must be an order of system page size, that's why the new
interface works with system page order, instead of absolute page size:
0 means the ring buffer sub page is equal to 1 system page and so
forth:
0 - 1 system page
1 - 2 system pages
2 - 4 system pages
...
The ring buffer sub page size is limited between 1 and 128 system
pages. The default value is 1 system page.
New ring buffer APIs are introduced:
 ring_buffer_subbuf_order_set()
 ring_buffer_subbuf_order_get()
 ring_buffer_subbuf_size_get()

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
