dot2k suggests a list of changes to the kernel tree while adding a monitor: edit tracepoints header, Makefile, Kconfig and moving the monitor folder. Those changes can be easily run automatically. Add a flag to dot2k to alter the kernel source. The kernel source directory can be either assumed from the PWD, or from the running kernel, if installed. This feature works best if the kernel tree is a git repository, so that its easier to make sure there are no unintended changes. The main RV files (e.g. Makefile) have now a comment placeholder that can be useful for manual editing (e.g. to know where to add new monitors) and it is used by the script to append the required lines. We also slightly adapt the file handling functions in dot2k: __open_file is now called __read_file and also closes the file before returning the content; __create_file is now a more general __write_file, we no longer return on FileExistsError (not thrown while opening), a new __create_file simply calls __write_file specifying the monitor folder in the path.

README
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 reStructuredText 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.
