That is cool, but see below the comment as having this as a separate
patch.

Also please, on the patch that introduces ! syscall tracepoint enum args
BTF augmentation include examples of tracepoints being augmented. I'll
try here while testing the patch as-is.

See the comment about evsel__init_tp_arg_scnprintf() below. Also please
do patches on top of previous work, i.e. the v3 patch should be a
separate patch and this v4 should add the extra functionality, i.e. the
support for !syscall tracepoint enum BTF augmentation.

The convention here is that evsel__ is the "class" name, so the first
arg is a 'struct evsel *', if you really were transforming this into a
'struct trace' specific "method" you would change the name of the C
function to 'trace__init_tp_arg_scnprintf'.

But in this case instead of passing the 'struct trace' pointer all the
way down we should instead pass a 'bool *use_btf' argument, making it:


static int evsel__init_tp_arg_scnprintf(struct evsel *evsel, bool *use_btf)

Then, when evlist__set_syscall_tp_fields(evlist, &use_btf) returns,
check that use_btf to check if we need to call
trace__load_vmlinux_btf(trace).

I'll test the patch as is now.
