557 * tracepoint_string - register constant persistent string to trace system
558 * @str - a constant persistent string that will be referenced in tracepoints
559 *
560 * If constant strings are being used in tracepoints, it is faster and
561 * more efficient to just save the pointer to the string and reference
562 * that with a printf "%s" instead of saving the string in the ring buffer
563 * and wasting space and time.
564 *
565 * The problem with the above approach is that userspace tools that read
566 * the binary output of the trace buffers do not have access to the string.
567 * Instead they just show the address of the string which is not very
568 * useful to users.
569 *
570 * With tracepoint_string(), the string will be registered to the tracing
571 * system and exported to userspace via the debugfs/tracing/printk_formats
572 * file that maps the string address to the string text. This way userspace
573 * tools that read the binary buffers have a way to map the pointers to
574 * the ASCII strings they represent.
575 *
576 * The @str used must be a constant string and persistent as it would not
577 * make sense to show a string that no longer exists. But it is still fine
578 * to be used with modules, because when modules are unloaded, if they
579 * had tracepoints, the ring buffers are cleared too. As long as the string
580 * does not change during the life of the module, it is fine to use
581 * tracepoint_string() within a module.
