I took a quick look before my vacation, and noticed that kbuffer.h is
already there. Then I noticed that this is for the trace-cmd.git tree.

The code in trace-cmd.git is now obsolete, and will not be updated for
libtraceevent work.

libtraceevent.git now lives at:

  https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/libs/libtrace/libtraceevent.git/

And we are also moving out libtracefs.git:

  https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/libs/libtrace/libtracefs.git/

Sorry for the confusion. We are trying to clean things up, and probably
sometime next year, I'll be removing the libtraceevent and libtracefs
code from trace-cmd.git, and it will then depend on these as separate
packages.

Please feel free to look at those repositories. The libtraceevent is
pretty much stable (but will probably be updated as the kernel gets
updated), but the libtracefs has a lot more to expand on. It is going
to be the API to communicate with the /sys/kernel/tracing directory.

Cheers!
