Subject: [PATCH v10 00/11] tracing: Add fprobe/tracepoint events
Hi,
Here is the 10th version of add a basic fprobe event support for
ftrace (tracefs) and perf. Here is the previous version.
https://lore.kernel.org/all/168299383880.3242086.7182498102007986127.stgit@mhiramat.roam.corp.google.com/
The major change is using '$args' instead of '$$args' [7/11].
This version also update description [1/11], cleanup code [2/11], fixes
some test cases[10/11] and document styles [11/11].
You can also get this series from:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mhiramat/linux.git topic/fprobe-event-ext
With this fprobe events, we can continue to trace function entry/exit
even if the CONFIG_KPROBES_ON_FTRACE is not available. Since
CONFIG_KPROBES_ON_FTRACE requires the CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS,
it is not available if the architecture only supports
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS (e.g. arm64). And that means kprobe
events can not probe function entry/exit effectively on such architecture.
But this problem can be solved if the dynamic events supports fprobe events
because fprobe events doesn't use kprobe but ftrace via fprobe.
FPROBE EVENTS
=============
Fprobe events allows user to add new events on the entry and exit of kernel
functions (which can be ftraced). Unlike kprobe events, the fprobe events
can only probe the function entry and exit, and it can only trace the
function args, return value, and stacks. (no registers)
For probing function body, users can continue to use the kprobe events.
The tracepoint probe events (tprobe events) also allows user to add new
events dynamically on the tracepoint. Most of the tracepoint already has
trace-events, so this feature is useful if you only want to know a
specific parameter, or trace the tracepoints which has no trace-events
(e.g. sched_*_tp tracepoints only exposes the tracepoints.)
The fprobe events syntax is;
f[:[GRP/][EVENT]] FUNCTION [FETCHARGS]
f[MAXACTIVE][:[GRP/][EVENT]] FUNCTION%return [FETCHARGS]
And tracepoint probe events syntax is;
t[:[GRP/][EVENT]] TRACEPOINT [FETCHARGS]
This series includes BTF argument support for fprobe/tracepoint events,
and kprobe events. This allows us to fetch a specific function parameter
by name, and all parameters by '$args'.
Note that enabling this feature, you need to enable CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL and
confirm that your arch supports CONFIG_HAVE_FUNCTION_ARG_ACCESS_API.
E.g.
# echo 't kfree ptr' >> dynamic_events
# echo 'f kfree object' >> dynamic_events
# cat dynamic_events
t:tracepoints/kfree kfree ptr=ptr
f:fprobes/kfree__entry kfree object=object
# echo 1 > events/fprobes/enable
# echo 1 > events/tracepoints/enable
# echo > trace
# head -n 20 trace | tail
