From: Sean Paul <seanp...@chromium.org>

This patch adds a new module parameter called drm.trace which accepts
the same mask as drm.debug. When a debug category is enabled, log
messages will be put in a new tracefs instance called drm for
consumption.

Using the new tracefs instance will allow distros to enable drm logging
in production without impacting performance or spamming the system
logs.

Changes in v5:
-Re-write to use trace_array and the tracefs instance support
Changes in v6:
-Use the new trace_array_init_printk() to initialize global trace
 buffers
Changes in v6.5:
-Fix kernel test robot warning
-Add a trace printf in __drm_err

Can we move the drm_trace_init() to drm_dev_register()?
The reason is while creating the tracefs node, I think its useful to have the drm device id to support multiple DRM devices. So while creating the tracefs node, we can do something like
trace_array_get_by_name("drm_<device_id");

Then usermode will just read all the traces from /instances/drm_***

+ * DOC: DRM Tracing
+ *
+ * *tl;dr* DRM tracing is a lightweight alternative to traditional DRM debug
+ * logging.
+ *
+ * While DRM logging is quite convenient when reproducing a specific issue, it + * doesn't help when something goes wrong unexpectedly. There are a couple
+ * reasons why one does not want to enable DRM logging at all times:
+ *
+ * 1. We don't want to overwhelm syslog with drm spam, others have to
use it too
+ * 2. Console logging is slow
+ *
+ * DRM tracing aims to solve both these problems.
+ *
+ * To use DRM tracing, set the drm.trace module parameter (via
cmdline or sysfs)
+ * to a DRM debug category mask (this is a bitmask of &drm_debug_category
+ * values):
+ * ::
+ *
+ *    eg: echo 0x106 > /sys/module/drm/parameters/trace
+ *
+ * Once active, all log messages in the specified categories will be written to + * the DRM trace. Once at capacity, the trace will overwrite old messages with
+ * new ones. At any point, one can read the trace file to extract the
previous N
+ * DRM messages:
+ * ::
+ *
+ *    eg: cat /sys/kernel/tracing/instances/drm/trace
+ *
+ * Considerations
+ * **************
+ * The trace is subsystem wide, so if you have multiple devices active, they
+ * will be adding logs to the same trace.
+ *
+ * The contents of the DRM Trace are **not** considered UABI. **DO
NOT depend on
+ * the values of these traces in your userspace.** These traces are
intended for
