Julia Cartwright 5973e6ebc0 tools lib traceevent: Add plugin for decoding syscalls/sys_enter_futex
The futex syscall is a complicated one.  It supports thirteen
multiplexed operations, each with different semantics and encodings for
the syscalls six arguments.

Manually decoding these arguments is tedious and error prone.

This plugin provides symbolic names for futex operations, futex flags,
and tries to be intelligent about the intent of specific arguments (for
example, waking operations use 'val' as an integer count, not just an
arbitrary value).

It doesn't do a full decode of the FUTEX_WAKE_OP's 'val3' argument,
however, this is a good starting point.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
