+- objtrace
+
+ This command provides a way to get the value of any object, The object
+ can be obtained from the dynamic event(kprobe_event/uprobe_event) or the
+ static event(tracepoint).
+
+ Usage:
+ When using the kprobe event, only need to set the objtrace(a new trigger),
+ we can get the value of the object. The object is from the setting of the
+ kprobe event.
+
+ For example:
+ For the function bio_add_page():
+
+ int bio_add_page(struct bio *bio, struct page *page,
+ unsigned int len, unsigned int offset)
+
+ Firstly, we can set the base of the object, thus the first string "arg1"
+ stands for the value of the first parameter of this function bio_add_gage(),
+
+ # echo 'p bio_add_page arg1=$arg1' > ./kprobe_events
+
+ Secondly, we can get the value dynamically based on above object.
+
+ find the offset of the bi_size in struct bio:
+ $ gdb vmlinux
+ (gdb) p &(((struct bio *)0)->bi_iter.bi_size)
+ $1 = (unsigned int *) 0x28
+
+ # echo 'objtrace:add:arg1,0x28:u32:1 if comm == "cat"' > ./events/kprobes/ \
+ p_bio_add_page_0/trigger
+
+ # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/
+ # echo 'p bio_add_page arg1=$arg1' > ./kprobe_events
+ # echo 'objtrace:add:arg1,0x28:u32:1 if comm == "cat"' > ./events/kprobes/p_bio_add_page_0/trigger
