Subject: [PATCH 1/3] perf: add support for printing BTF character arrays as strings
The BTF dumper code currently displays arrays of characters as just that -
arrays, with each character formatted individually. Sometimes this is what
makes sense, but it's nice to be able to treat that array as a string.
This change adds a special case to the btf_dump functionality to allow
arrays of single-byte integer values to be printed as character strings.
Characters for which isprint() returns false are printed as hex-escaped
values. This is enabled when the new ".print_strings" is set to 1 in the
btf_dump_type_data_opts structure.
As an example, here's what it looks like to dump the string "hello" using
a few different field values for btf_dump_type_data_opts (.compact = 1):
- .print_strings = 0, .skip_names = 0: (char[6])['h','e','l','l','o',]
- .print_strings = 0, .skip_names = 1: ['h','e','l','l','o',]
- .print_strings = 1, .skip_names = 0: (char[6])"hello"
- .print_strings = 1, .skip_names = 1: "hello"
Here's the string "h\xff", dumped with .compact = 1 and .skip_names = 1:
- .print_strings = 0: ['h',-1,]
- .print_strings = 1: "h\xff"
