Subject: [PATCH 0/2 v2] Syscalls tracing
tracing/syscalls: core infrastructure to trace syscalls
This new iteration addresses a good part of the previous reviews.
As suggested by Ingo Molnar and Peter Zijlstra, the syscalls
prototypes probing is done by abusing the SYSCALL_DEFINE family
macros.
We now store automatically the arguments names, their types, their number
and the name of the syscall.
Also some fixes on output newlines and dangerous exporting of global_trace
are provided.
An example of the trace:
echo syscall > /debugfs/tracing/current_tracer
# tracer: syscall
#
# TASK-PID CPU# TIMESTAMP FUNCTION

<...>-5080 [001] 132.192242: sys_fcntl(fd: a, cmd: 1, arg: 0)
<...>-5080 [001] 132.192245: sys_fcntl -> 0x1

And if you ask for the parameters types:
echo syscall_arg_type > trace_options
# tracer: syscall
#
# TASK-PID CPU# TIMESTAMP FUNCTION

TODO:
- add a single mask on the struct syscall_metadata to provide quickly which arguments is
a pointer (usually type __user *p) so that the user can decide if he wants to save them of tracing time
- now that we have each parameter type as strings, add a new field on struct syscall_metadata to have the parameter types
encoded as single enum values (for quick checks) so that we can use specific callbacks for each parameter type
to be displayed.
NOTE: this is still not overlapping with a potential future merge of utrace, since the low-level hooks on
the syscalls remain somewhat basic.
NOTE2: I've only tested it on x86-64 for now, so only x86-64 support is provided.
