Jiri Olsa was writing a plugin for the cfg80211_tx_mlme_mgmt trace
event, and was not able to get the implemented function working.
The event's print fmt looks like:
"netdev:%s(%d), ftype:0x%.2x", REC->name, REC->ifindex,
__le16_to_cpup((__le16 *)__get_dynamic_array(frame))
As there's no helper function for __le16_to_cpup(), Jiri was creating one
with a plugin. But unfortunately, it would not work even though he set
up the plugin correctly.
The problem is that the function parameters do not handle the helper
function "__get_dynamic_array()", and that passes in a NULL pointer.
Adding PRINT_DYNAMIC_ARRAY direct support to eval_num_arg() allows the
use of __get_dynamic_array() in function parameters.

Currently when using the raw format for fields, when looking at a
character array, to determine if it is a string or not, we make sure all
characters are "isprint()". If not, then we consider it a numeric array,
and print the hex numbers of the characters instead.
But it seems that '\n' fails the isprint() check! Add isspace() to the
check as well, such that if all characters pass isprint() or isspace()
it will assume the character array is a string.

The trace_bprintk() in the kernel looks like:
ring_buffer_producer_thread: Missed: 0
ring_buffer_producer_thread: Hit: 62174350
ring_buffer_producer_thread: Entries per millisec: 6296
ring_buffer_producer_thread: 158 ns per entry
ring_buffer_producer_thread: Sleeping for 10 secs
ring_buffer_producer_thread: Starting ring buffer hammer
ring_buffer_producer_thread: End ring buffer hammer
But the current output looks like this:
ring_buffer_producer_thread : Time: 9407018 (usecs)
ring_buffer_producer_thread : Overruns: 43285485
ring_buffer_producer_thread : Read: 4405365 (by events)
ring_buffer_producer_thread : Entries: 0
ring_buffer_producer_thread : Total: 47690850
ring_buffer_producer_thread : Missed: 0
ring_buffer_producer_thread : Hit: 47690850
Remove the space between the function and the colon.

The kernel has a few events with a format similar to this excerpt:
field:unsigned int len; offset:12; size:4; signed:0;
field:__data_loc unsigned char[] data_array; offset:16; size:4; signed:0;
print fmt: "%s", __print_hex(__get_dynamic_array(data_array), REC->len)
trace-cmd could already parse that arg correctly, but print_str_arg()
was unable to handle the first parameter being a dynamic array. (It
just printed a "field not found" warning).
Teach print_str_arg's PRINT_HEX case to handle the nested
PRINT_DYNAMIC_ARRAY correctly. The output now matches the kernel's own
formatting for this case.

The various build lines from libtraceevent and perf mix up during a
parallel build and produce unaligned output like:
CC builtin-buildid-list.o
CC builtin-buildid-cache.o
CC builtin-list.o
CC FPIC trace-seq.o
CC builtin-record.o
CC FPIC parse-filter.o
CC builtin-report.o
CC builtin-stat.o
CC FPIC parse-utils.o
CC FPIC kbuffer-parse.o
CC builtin-timechart.o
CC builtin-top.o
CC builtin-script.o
BUILD STATIC LIB libtraceevent.a
CC builtin-probe.o
CC builtin-kmem.o
CC builtin-lock.o
To solve this, harmonize all the build message alignments to be similar
to the kernel's kbuild output: prefixed by two spaces and 11-char wide.
After the patch the output looks pretty tidy, even if output lines get
mixed up:
CC builtin-annotate.o
FLAGS: * new build flags or cross compiler
CC builtin-bench.o
AR liblk.a
CC bench/sched-messaging.o
CC FPIC event-parse.o

For some reason the libtraceevent tracepoint-parsing code is missing
the FIELD_IS_SIGNED flag-setting code, which causes problems for the
Perl trace event binding at least, since it ends up unable to
recognize negative numbers.
Things like checking for negative return values therefore fail, causing
scripts like rwtop to instead interpret the negative return value as a
large positive value, which in turn get added to e.g. read totals with
insanely invalid results.
So set the FIELD_IS_SIGNED flag for tracepoint events that specify
"signed:1".
