+	  tracing_map is a special-purpose lock-free map for tracing,
+	  separated out as a stand-alone facility in order to allow it
+	  to be shared between multiple tracers.  It isn't meant to be
+	  generally used outside of that context, and is normally
+	  selected by tracers that use it.

+	help
+	  Hist triggers allow one or more arbitrary trace event fields
+	  to be aggregated into hash tables and dumped to stdout by
+	  reading a debugfs/tracefs file.  They're useful for
+	  gathering quick and dirty (though precise) summaries of
+	  event activity as an initial guide for further investigation
+	  using more advanced tools.
