X-Git-Tag: for-linus-20181026~61^2~24 X-Git-Url: https://git.kernel.dk/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=bda58ee8f8e4c2b6d9949755aa06cc1a8538c069;p=linux-block.git Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo-4.20-20180905' of git://git./linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/core Pull perf/core improvements and fixes from Arnaldo: perf trace: - Augment the payload of syscall entry/exit tracepoints with the contents of pointer arguments, such as the "filename" argument to the "open" syscall or the 'struct sockaddr *' argument to the 'connect' syscall. This is done using a BPF program that gets compiled and attached to various syscalls:sys_enter_NAME tracepoints, copying via a BPF map and "bpf-output" perf event the raw_syscalls:sys_enter tracepoint payload + the contents of pointer arguments using the "probe_read", "probe_read_str" and "perf_event_output" BPF functions. The 'perf trace' codebase now just processes these augmented tracepoints using the existing beautifiers that now check if there is more in the perf_sample->raw_data than what is expected for a normal syscall enter tracepoint (the common preamble, syscall id, up to six parameters), using that with hand crafted struct beautifiers. This is just to show how to augment the existing tracepoints, work will be done to use DWARF or BTF info to do the pretty-printing and to create the collectors. For now this is done using an example restricted C BPF program, but the end goal is to have this all autogenerated and done transparently. Its still useful to have this example as one can use it as an skeleton and write more involved filters, see the etcsnoop.c BPF example, for instance.
