Mauro Carvalho Chehab 5fb94e9ca3 docs: Fix some broken references
As we move stuff around, some doc references are broken. Fix some of
them via this script:
	./scripts/documentation-file-ref-check --fix

Manually checked if the produced result is valid, removing a few
false-positives.

Tom Zanussi a4072fe85b tracing: Add a clock attribute for hist triggers
The default clock if timestamps are used in a histogram is "global".
If timestamps aren't used, the clock is irrelevant.

Use the "clock=" param only if you want to override the default
"global" clock for a histogram with timestamps.

Add background and details on inter-event hist triggers, including
hist variables, synthetic events, and actions.

Tom Zanussi f404da6e1d tracing: Add 'last error' error facility for hist triggers
With the addition of variables and actions, it's become necessary to
provide more detailed error information to users about syntax errors.

Add a 'last error' facility accessible via the erroring event's 'hist'
file.  Reading the hist file after an error will display more detailed
information about what went wrong, if information is available.  This
extended error information will be available until the next hist
trigger command for that event.

  # echo xxx > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_wakeup/trigger
  echo: write error: Invalid argument

  # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_wakeup/hist

  ERROR: Couldn't yyy: zzz
  Last command: xxx

Also add specific error messages for variable and action errors.

Tom Zanussi 8b7622bf94 tracing: Add cpu field for hist triggers
A common key to use in a histogram is the cpuid - add a new cpu
'synthetic' field named 'cpu' for that purpose.

Tom Zanussi 860f9f6b02 tracing: Add usecs modifier for hist trigger timestamps
Appending .usecs onto a common_timestamp field will cause the
timestamp value to be in microseconds instead of the default
nanoseconds.  A typical latency histogram using usecs would look like
this:

   # echo 'hist:keys=pid,prio:ts0=common_timestamp.usecs ...
   # echo 'hist:keys=next_pid:wakeup_lat=common_timestamp.usecs-$ts0 ...

This also adds an external trace_clock_in_ns() to trace.c for the
timestamp conversion.

since it will be getting even larger, move it to a separate file.
