/*
 * This module is a simple test of basic functionality for in-kernel
 * synthetic event creation and generation, the first and second tests
 * using synth_event_gen_cmd_start() and synth_event_add_field(), the
 * third uses synth_event_create() to do it all at once with a static
 * field array.
 *
 * Following that are a few examples using the created events to test
 * various ways of tracing a synthetic event.
 *
 * To test, select CONFIG_SYNTH_EVENT_GEN_TEST and build the module.
 * Then:
 *
 * # insmod kernel/trace/synth_event_gen_test.ko
 * # cat /sys/kernel/tracing/trace
 *
 * You should see several events in the trace buffer -
 * "create_synth_test", "empty_synth_test", and several instances of
 * "gen_synth_test".
 *
 * To remove the events, remove the module:
 *
 * # rmmod synth_event_gen_test
 *
