Subject: [PATCH v5 0/6] tracing/probes: uaccess: Add support user-space access

Hi,

Here is the v5 series of probe-event to support user-space access.
This version I simplified probe_user_read (Thanks PeterZ!) and move
open-coded non-pagefault strnlen_user code to mm/maccess.c.

Changes in v5:
- [3/6]: Simplify probe_user_read() and add strnlen_unsafe_user()
- [4/6]: Use strnlen_unsafe_user()

V4 series is here;

Kprobe event user-space memory access features:

For user-space access extension, this series adds 2 features,
"ustring" type and user-space dereference syntax. "ustring" is
used for recording a null-terminated string in user-space from
kprobe events.

"ustring" type is easy, it is able to use instead of "string"
type, so if you want to record a user-space string via
"__user char *", you can use ustring type instead of string.
For example,

echo 'p do_sys_open path=+0($arg2):ustring' >> kprobe_events

will record the path string from user-space.

The user-space dereference syntax is also simple. Thi just
adds 'u' prefix before an offset value.

   +|-u<OFFSET>(<FETCHARG>)

e.g. +u8(%ax), +u0(+0(%si))

This is more generic. If you want to refer the variable in user-
space from its address or access a field in data structure in
user-space, you need to use this.

For example, if you probe do_sched_setscheduler(pid, policy,
param) and record param->sched_priority, you can add new
probe as below;
    
   p do_sched_setscheduler priority=+u0($arg3)

Actually, with this feature, "ustring" type is not absolutely
necessary, because these are same meanings.

  +0($arg2):ustring == +u0($arg2):string

Note that kprobe event provides these methods, but it doesn't
change it from kernel to user automatically because we do not
know whether the given address is in userspace or kernel on
some arch.

For perf-probe, we can add some attribute for each argument
which indicate that the variable in user space. If gcc/clang
supports debuginfo for __user (address_space attribute),
perf-probe can support it and automatically choose the
correct dereference method. 

Thank you,
