While synchronizing what's in trace-cmd vs what's in perf, I came
across a change that was made when entering the jbd2 plugin into
the tools/lib/traceevent directory. For example, one of the function
prototypes went from:
unsigned long long process_jbd2_dev_to_name(struct trace_seq *s,
unsigned long long *args)
to:
static unsigned long long
process_jbd2_dev_to_name(struct trace_seq *s,
unsigned long long *args)
I can understand the line break after the long long, but there's no
reason to keep args on a separate line.

The nested vmexit events were removed from the backport from trace-cmd because
they were considered buggy. They have since been updated in trace-cmd but
are still missing from the traceevent library. Add back in the buggy
version to be able to backport the fixes.

Coming in v3.16, trace events will be able to save bitmasks in raw
format in the ring buffer and output it with the __get_bitmask() macro.
In order for userspace tools to parse this, it must be able to handle
the __get_bitmask() call and be able to convert the data that's in
the ring buffer into a nice bitmask format. The output is similar to
what the kernel uses to print bitmasks, with a comma separator every
4 bytes (8 characters).
This allows for cpumasks to also be saved efficiently.
The first user is the thermal:thermal_power_limit event which has the
following output:
thermal_power_limit: cpus=0000000f freq=1900000 cdev_state=0 power=5252

The traceevent plugins allows developers to have their events print out
information that is more advanced than what can be achieved by the
trace event format files.
As these plugins are used on the userspace side of the tracing tools, it
is only logical that the tools should be able to produce different types
of output for the events. The types of events still need to be defined by
the plugins thus we need a way to pass information from the tool to the
plugin to specify what type of information to be shown.
Not only does the information need to be passed by the tool to plugin, but
the plugin also requires a way to notify the tool of what options it can
provide.
This builds the plugin option infrastructure that is taken from trace-cmd
that is used to allow plugins to produce different output based on the
options specified by the tool.

Commit 12e55569a2 "tools lib traceevent: Use helper trace-seq in print
functions like kernel does" added a extra trace_seq helper to process
string arguments like the kernel does it. But the difference between the
kernel and the userspace library is that the kernel's trace_seq structure
has a static allocated buffer. The userspace one has a dynamically
allocated one. It requires a trace_seq_destroy(), otherwise it produces
a nasty memory leak.

The return value for pevent_filter_match() is suppose to return FILTER_NONE
if the event doesn't have a filter, and FILTER_NOEXIST if there is no filter
at all. But the change 41e12e580a "tools lib traceevent: Refactor
pevent_filter_match() to get rid of die()" replaced the return value
with PEVENT_ERRNO__* values and added "backward compatibility" macros
that used the old names. Unfortunately, the NOEXIST and NONE macros were
swapped, and this broke users that use the old return names.

It's sometimes useful to know where the parse failure was occurred. Add
do_warning_event() macro to see the failing event.
It now shows the messages like below:

The plugindir_SQ definition contains $(prefix) which is not needed as
the $(libdir) definition already contains prefix in it. This leads to
the path including an extra prefix in it, e.g. /usr/usr/lib64.
The -DPLUGIN_DIR defintion includes DESTDIR. This is incorrect, as it
sets the plugin search path to include the value of DESTDIR. DESTDIR is
a mechanism to install in a non-standard location such as a chroot or an
RPM build root. In the RPM case, this leads to the search path being
incorrect after the resulting RPM is installed (or in some cases an RPM
build failure).
Remove both of these unnecessary inclusions.
