Subject: [PATCH] sched/tracing: append prev_state to tp args instead

Hi folks,

While working on bpf tooling, we noticed that the sched_switch tracepoint
signature recently changed in an incompatible manner. This affects the
runqslower tools in the kernel tree, as well as multiple libbpf tools in iovisor/bcc.

It would be a fair amount of churn to fix all these tools, not to mention any
non-public tools people may be using. If you are open to it, here's a
description and a patch that moves the new argument to the end,
so existing tools can continue working without change (the new argument
just won't be extracted in existing programs):

Commit fa2c3254d7cf (sched/tracing: Don't re-read p->state when emitting
sched_switch event, 2022-01-20) added a new prev_state argument to the
sched_switch tracepoint, before the prev task_struct pointer.

This reordering of arguments broke BPF programs that use the raw
tracepoint (e.g. tp_btf programs). The type of the second argument has
changed and existing programs that assume a task_struct* argument
(e.g. for bpf_task_storage or member access) will now fail to verify.

If we instead append the new argument to the end, all existing programs
will continue to work and can conditionally extract the prev_state
argument on supported kernel versions.

Fixes: fa2c3254d7cf (sched/tracing: Don't re-read p->state when emitting sched_switch event, 2022-01-20)
