Subject: [PATCH v8 0/2] Introducing trace buffer mapping by user-space

The tracing ring-buffers can be stored on disk or sent to network
without any copy via splice. However the later doesn't allow real time
processing of the traces. A solution is to give userspace direct access
to the ring-buffer pages via a mapping. An application can now become a
consumer of the ring-buffer, in a similar fashion to what trace_pipe
offers.

Attached to this cover letter an example of consuming read for a
ring-buffer, using libtracefs.

Vincent

v7 -> v8:
  * Drop the subbufs renaming into bpages
  * Use subbuf as a name when relevant

v6 -> v7:
  * Rebase onto lore.kernel.org/lkml/20231215175502.106587604@...dmis.org/
  * Support for subbufs
  * Rename subbufs into bpages

v5 -> v6:
  * Rebase on next-20230802.
  * (unsigned long) -> (void *) cast for virt_to_page().
  * Add a wait for the GET_READER_PAGE ioctl.
  * Move writer fields update (overrun/pages_lost/entries/pages_touched)
    in the irq_work.
  * Rearrange id in struct buffer_page.
  * Rearrange the meta-page.
  * ring_buffer_meta_page -> trace_buffer_meta_page.
  * Add meta_struct_len into the meta-page.

v4 -> v5:
  * Trivial rebase onto 6.5-rc3 (previously 6.4-rc3)

v3 -> v4:
  * Add to the meta-page:
       - pages_lost / pages_read (allow to compute how full is the
	 ring-buffer)
       - read (allow to compute how many entries can be read)
       - A reader_page struct.
  * Rename ring_buffer_meta_header -> ring_buffer_meta
  * Rename ring_buffer_get_reader_page -> ring_buffer_map_get_reader_page
  * Properly consume events on ring_buffer_map_get_reader_page() with
    rb_advance_reader().

v2 -> v3:
  * Remove data page list (for non-consuming read)
    ** Implies removing order > 0 meta-page
  * Add a new meta page field ->read
  * Rename ring_buffer_meta_page_header into ring_buffer_meta_header

v1 -> v2:
  * Hide data_pages from the userspace struct
  * Fix META_PAGE_MAX_PAGES
  * Support for order > 0 meta-page
  * Add missing page->mapping.
