+- 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
