Subject: Merge tag 'driver-core-7.3-rc2' of
 git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/driver-core/driver-core

Pull driver core fixes from Danilo Krummrich:

 - Fix kernfs listxattr() not returning security xattr names (e.g.
   SELinux labels) when the kernfs node has no allocated kernfs_iattrs

 - Fix silent truncation of IRQ vector indices in the Rust PCI
   abstractions

 - Don't select OF from DRIVER_PE_KUNIT_TEST; skip the test when OF is
   disabled instead of silently enabling extra kernel functionality

 - Russ Weight is retiring from kernel development; update the Firmware
   Loader sysfs contact to the driver-core mailing list, add a CREDITS
   entry for Firmware Upload, and update MAINTAINERS accordingly

* tag 'driver-core-7.3-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/driver-core/driver-core:
  MAINTAINERS: Remove Russ Weight from Firmware Loader
  CREDITS: Add CREDITS entry for Firmware Upload
  firmware_loader: Change contact for sysfs nodes
  rust: pci: reject IRQ vector indices that do not fit in u32
  kernfs: preserve security xattrs without allocating iattrs
  drivers: base: test: DRIVER_PE_KUNIT_TEST should not select OF

+Linux Tracing Technologies Guide
+================================
+
+Tracing in the Linux kernel is a powerful mechanism that allows
+developers and system administrators to analyze and debug system
+behavior. This guide provides documentation on various tracing
+frameworks and tools available in the Linux kernel.
+
+Introduction to Tracing
+-----------------------
+
+This section provides an overview of Linux tracing mechanisms
+and debugging approaches.
+
+.. toctree::
+   :maxdepth: 1
+
+   debugging
+   tracepoints
+   tracepoint-analysis
+   ring-buffer-map
+
+Core Tracing Frameworks
+-----------------------
+
+The following are the primary tracing frameworks integrated into
+the Linux kernel.
+
+.. toctree::
+   :maxdepth: 1
+
+   ftrace
+   ftrace-design
+   ftrace-uses
+   kprobes
+   kprobetrace
+   fprobetrace
+   eprobetrace
+   fprobe
+   ring-buffer-design
+
+Event Tracing and Analysis
+--------------------------
+
+A detailed explanation of event tracing mechanisms and their
+applications.

+   :maxdepth: 1
+
+   events
+   events-kmem
+   events-power
+   events-nmi
+   events-msr
+   events-landlock
+   events-pci
+   events-pci-controller
+   boottime-trace
+   histogram
+   histogram-design
+
+Hardware and Performance Tracing
+--------------------------------
+
+This section covers tracing features that monitor hardware
+interactions and system performance.
+
+.. toctree::
+   :maxdepth: 1
+
+   intel_th
+   stm
+   sys-t
+   coresight/index
+   rv/index
+   hisi-ptt
+   mmiotrace
+   hwlat_detector
+   osnoise-tracer
+   timerlat-tracer
+
+User-Space Tracing
+------------------
+
+These tools allow tracing user-space applications and
+interactions.
+
+.. toctree::
+   :maxdepth: 1
+
+   user_events
+   uprobetracer
+
+Remote Tracing
+--------------
+
+This section covers the framework to read compatible ring-buffers, written by
+entities outside of the kernel (most likely firmware or hypervisor)
+
+.. toctree::
+   :maxdepth: 1
+
+   remotes
+
+Additional Resources

+tracing tool and framework.
