Hello,

Here is a series of patches for improving ftracetest testcase
using gcov/lcov. It is still in progress, and I have got good
improvement of line/function coverage under kernel/trace with
this series. (Note that this kernel enables ftrace startup
tests)

Without this series
Lines:		10156	17200	59.0 %
Functions:	1069	1772	60.3 %

With this series
Lines:		11130	17200	64.7 %
Functions:	1185	1772	66.9 %

Of course we don't need to make it 100%, because ftracetest
is a function/specification test, and there are functions and
lines which never be called (like critical error detection :) ).
Also, ftrace has some amount of code for perf and bpf subsystem
which should be tested by perf/bpf tests.
However, GCOV(LCOV) gives us a good insight into which
functions are covered or not covered by the test cases.

This series has some ftracetest framework improvements too,
which are for debugging ftracetest itself.

Tracing/Gcov-kernel:
 - Add CONFIG_GCOV_PROFILE_FRACE, which enables gcov profiling
   only on tracing subsystem (under kernel/trace/). This may not
   needed for everyone (like a debugging feature).
   So it can be dropped anyway.

Ftracetest framework improvements:
 - Add --stop-fail for detecting failure soon.
 - Add --console for interactively debugging a testcase by shell.
 - Add testcase-number prefix to logfile for finding log easier.
 - Improve general init function
 - Call general init function after all testcases.
 - Remove init/cleanup code from all testcase (since general init
   function will fixed it up)

Testcase fixes:
 - Fix to check $comm availability.
 - Make checkbashisms clean

Testcase improvements:
 - Use loopback address instead of localhost
 - Improve kprobe on module testcase to load/unload module
 - Improve kprobe testcase to check log data
 - Improve kretprobe testcase to check log data
 - Test kprobe-event argument with various bitsize
 - Check set_event_pid result

Adding testcases:
 - Add kprobe event with $comm argument testcase
 - Add kprobe profile testcase
 - Add kprobe-event with symbol argument test
 - Add nop tracer testcase
 - Add trace_printk sample module testcase
 - Add ringbuffer size changing testcase
 - Add function profiling statistics testcase
 - Add max stack tracer testcase
 - Add function filter on module testcase
 - Add trace_pipe testcase
 
TBD:
Following testcase improvements are remaining.
 - Checking of various supported types (like u8, u64 etc.)
   testcases
 - Filter actions for ftrace testcases

Thank you,
