[ Upstream commit 9fa8c9c647be624e91b09ecffa7cd97ee0600b40 ]
In the format of synthetic events, the "gfp_t" is shown as "signed:1",
but in fact the "gfp_t" is "unsigned", should be shown as "signed:0".
The issue can be reproduced by the following commands:
echo 'memlatency u64 lat; unsigned int order; gfp_t gfp_flags; int migratetype' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/synthetic_events
cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/synthetic/memlatency/format
name: memlatency
ID: 2233
format:
field:unsigned short common_type; offset:0; size:2; signed:0;
field:unsigned char common_flags; offset:2; size:1; signed:0;
field:unsigned char common_preempt_count; offset:3; size:1; signed:0;
field:int common_pid; offset:4; size:4; signed:1;
field:u64 lat; offset:8; size:8; signed:0;
field:unsigned int order; offset:16; size:4; signed:0;
field:gfp_t gfp_flags; offset:24; size:4; signed:1;
field:int migratetype; offset:32; size:4; signed:1;
print fmt: "lat=%llu, order=%u, gfp_flags=%x, migratetype=%d", REC->lat, REC->order, REC->gfp_flags, REC->migratetype
