base-commit: 42f7652d3eb527d03665b09edac47f85fb600924 -- 2.47.0.163.g1226f6d8fa-goog
Commit 78ff64081949 ("vfs: Convert tracefs to use the new mount API") converted tracefs to use the new mount APIs caused mount options (e.g. gid=<gid>) to not take effect.
The tracefs superblock can be updated from multiple paths: - on fs_initcall() to init_trace_printk_function_export() - form a work queue to initialize eventfs tracer_init_tracefs_work_func() - fsconfig() syscall to mount or remount of tracefs
The tracefs super block root inode gets created early on in init_trace_printk_function_export().
With the new mount API tracefs effectively uses get_tree_single() instead of the old API mount_single().
Previously, mount_single() ensured that the options are always applied to the superblock root inode: (1) If the root inode didn't exist, called fill_super() to create it and apply the options. (2) If the root inode exists, called reconfigure_single() which effectively called tracefs_apply_options() to parse and apply options to the subperblock's fs_info and inode and remount eventfs (if necessary)
On the other hand, get_tree_single() effectively calls vfs_get_super() which: (3) If the root inode doesn't exists calls fill_super() to create it and apply the options. (4) If the root inode already exists, updates the fs_context root with the superblock's root inode.
(4) above is always the case for tracefs mounts, since the super block's root inode will already be created by init_trace_printk_function_export().
This means that the mount option get ignored: - Since it isn't applied to the super block's root inode, it doesn't get inherited by the children. - Since eventfs is initialized from a separate work queue and before call to mount with the options, and it doesn't get remounted for mount.
Ensure that the mount options are applied to the super block and eventfs is remounted to respect the mount options.

Commit ee7f3666995d ("tracefs: Have new files inherit the ownership of their parent") and commit 48b27b6b5191 ("tracefs: Set all files to the same group ownership as the mount option") introduced a new gid mount option that allows specifying a group to apply to all entries in tracefs.
Document this in the tracing readme.

Add a selftest to check that the tracefs gid mount option is applied correctly.
./ftracetest test.d/00basic/mount_options.tc
Use the new readme string "[gid=<gid>] as a requirement and also update test_ownership.tc requirements to use this.
