When events are removed from tracefs, the eventfs must be aware of this. The eventfs_remove() removes the meta data from eventfs so that it will no longer create the files associated with that event. When an instance is removed from tracefs, eventfs_remove_events_dir() will remove and clean up the entire "events" directory. The helper function eventfs_remove_rec() is used to clean up and free the associated data from eventfs for both of the added functions. SRCU is used to protect the lists of meta data stored in the eventfs. The eventfs_mutex is used to protect the content of the items in the list. As lookups may be happening as deletions of events are made, the freeing of dentry/inodes and relative information is done after the SRCU grace period has passed.

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.
