20 * SIDE stands for "Software Instrumentation Dynamically Enabled"
21 *
22 * This is an instrumentation ABI for Linux user-space, which exposes an
23 * instrumentation type system and facilities allowing a kernel or
24 * user-space tracer to consume user-space instrumentation.
25 *
26 * The extensibility scheme for the SIDE ABI for event state is as
27 * follows:
28 *
29 * * If the semantic of the "struct side_event_state_N" fields change,
30 * the SIDE_EVENT_STATE_ABI_VERSION should be increased. The
31 * "struct side_event_state_N" is not extensible and must have its
32 * ABI version increased whenever it is changed. Note that increasing
33 * the version of SIDE_EVENT_DESCRIPTION_ABI_VERSION is not necessary
34 * when changing the layout of "struct side_event_state_N".
