Masami Hiramatsu (Google) d24e5e6318 tracing/hist: Support POLLPRI event for poll on histogram
[ Upstream commit 66fc6f521a0b91051ce6968a216a30bc52267bf8 ]

Since POLLIN will not be flushed until the hist file is read, the user
needs to repeatedly read() and poll() on the hist file for monitoring the
event continuously. But the read() is somewhat redundant when the user is
only monitoring for event updates.

Add POLLPRI poll event on the hist file so the event returns when a
histogram is updated after open(), poll() or read(). Thus it is possible
to wait for the next event without having to issue a read().

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.
