Implement new traceevent plugin API, which can be used to add new plugins
directories:
enum tep_plugin_load_priority {
TEP_PLUGIN_FIRST,
TEP_PLUGIN_LAST,
};
int tep_add_plugin_path(struct tep_handle *tep, char *path,
enum tep_plugin_load_priority prio);
It adds the "path" as new plugin directory, in the context of the
handler "tep". The tep_load_plugins() API searches for plugins in this
new location. Depending of the priority "prio", the plugins from this
directory are loaded before (TEP_PLUGIN_FIRST) or after
(TEP_PLUGIN_LAST) the ordinary libtraceevent plugin locations.

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.
