tracing/filters: improve subsystem filter
Currently a subsystem filter should be applicable to all events under the subsystem, and if it failed, all the event filters will be cleared. Those behaviors make subsys filter much less useful: # echo 'vec == 1' > irq/softirq_entry/filter # echo 'irq == 5' > irq/filter bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument # cat irq/softirq_entry/filter none I'd expect it set the filter for irq_handler_entry/exit, and not touch softirq_entry/exit. The basic idea is, try to see if the filter can be applied to which events, and then just apply to the those events: # echo 'vec == 1' > softirq_entry/filter # echo 'irq == 5' > filter # cat irq_handler_entry/filter irq == 5 # cat softirq_entry/filter vec == 1 Changelog for v2: - do some cleanups to address Frederic's comments.
