Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] kretprobe: produce sane stack traces
Historically, kretprobe has always produced unusable stack traces
(kretprobe_trampoline is the only entry in most cases, because of the
funky stack pointer overwriting). This has caused quite a few annoyances
when using tracing to debug problems[1] -- since return values are only
available with kretprobes but stack traces were only usable for kprobes,
users had to probe both and then manually associate them.
With the advent of bpf_trace, users would have been able to do this
association in bpf, but this was less than ideal (because
bpf_get_stackid would still produce rubbish and programs that didn't
know better would get silly results). The main usecase for stack traces
(at least with bpf_trace) is for DTrace-style aggregation on stack
traces (both entry and exit). Therefore we cannot simply correct the
stack trace on exit -- we must stash away the stack trace and return the
entry stack trace when it is requested.
