From 79ef68c7e1f665578e005b454480b6eca60edabe Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Date: Mon, 5 Nov 2018 12:23:40 -0300 Subject: [PATCH] perf augmented_syscalls: Start collecting pathnames in the BPF program This is the start of having the raw_syscalls:sys_enter BPF handler collecting pointer arguments, namely pathnames, and with two syscalls that have that pointer in different arguments, "open" as it as its first argument, "openat" as the second. With this in place the existing beautifiers in 'perf trace' works, those args are shown instead of just the pointer that comes with the syscalls tracepoints. This also serves to show and document pitfalls in the process of using just that place in the kernel (raw_syscalls:sys_enter) plus tables provided by userspace to collect syscall pointer arguments. One is the need to use a barrier, as suggested by Edward, to avoid clang optimizations that make the kernel BPF verifier to refuse loading our pointer contents collector. The end result should be a generic eBPF program that works in all architectures, with the differences amongst archs resolved by the userspace component, 'perf trace', that should get all its tables created automatically from the kernel components where they are defined, via string table constructors for things not expressed in BTF/DWARF (enums, structs, etc), and otherwise using those observability files (BTF).
