2019-05-25tracing/probe: Support user-space dereferenceMasami Hiramatsu
Support user-space dereference syntax for probe event arguments to dereference the data-structure or array in user-space. The syntax is just adding 'u' before an offset value. +|-u<OFFSET>(<FETCHARG>) e.g. +u8(%ax), +u0(+0(%si)) For example, if you probe do_sched_setscheduler(pid, policy, param) and record param->sched_priority, you can add new probe as below; p do_sched_setscheduler priority=+u0($arg3) Note that kprobe event provides this and it doesn't change the dereference method automatically because we do not know whether the given address is in userspace or kernel on some archs. So as same as "ustring", this is an option for user, who has to carefully choose the dereference method.

2019-05-25tracing/probe: Add ustring type for user-space stringMasami Hiramatsu
Add "ustring" type for fetching user-space string from kprobe event. User can specify ustring type at uprobe event, and it is same as "string" for uprobe. Note that probe-event provides this option but it doesn't choose the correct type automatically since we have not way to decide the address is in user-space or not on some arch (and on some other arch, you can fetch the string by "string" type). So user must carefully check the target code (e.g. if you see __user on the target variable) and use this new type.

2019-05-08tracing: probeevent: Do not accumulate on ret variableMasami Hiramatsu
Do not accumulate strlen result on "ret" local variable, because it is accumulated on "total" local variable for array case.

2019-02-11tracing: probeevent: Correctly update remaining space in dynamic areaAndreas Ziegler
Commit 9178412ddf5a ("tracing: probeevent: Return consumed bytes of dynamic area") improved the string fetching mechanism by returning the number of required bytes after copying the argument to the dynamic area. However, this return value is now only used to increment the pointer inside the dynamic area but misses updating the 'maxlen' variable which indicates the remaining space in the dynamic area. This means that fetch_store_string() always reads the *total* size of the dynamic area from the data_loc pointer instead of the *remaining* size (and passes it along to strncpy_from_{user,unsafe}) even if we're already about to copy data into the middle of the dynamic area.

2018-10-10tracing: probeevent: Add array type supportMasami Hiramatsu
Add array type support for probe events. This allows user to get arraied types from memory address. The array type syntax is TYPE[N] Where TYPE is one of types (u8/16/32/64,s8/16/32/64, x8/16/32/64, symbol, string) and N is a fixed value less than 64. The string array type is a bit different from other types. For other base types, <base-type>[1] is equal to <base-type> (e.g. +0(%di):x32[1] is same as +0(%di):x32.) But string[1] is not equal to string. The string type itself represents "char array", but string array type represents "char * array". So, for example, +0(%di):string[1] is equal to +0(+0(%di)):string.

2018-10-10tracing: probeevent: Unify fetch_insn processing common partMasami Hiramatsu
Unify the fetch_insn bottom process (from stage 2: dereference indirect data) from kprobe and uprobe events, since those are mostly same.

2018-10-10tracing: probeevent: Return consumed bytes of dynamic areaMasami Hiramatsu
Cleanup string fetching routine so that returns the consumed bytes of dynamic area and store the string information as data_loc format instead of data_rloc. This simplifies the fetcharg loop.

2018-10-10tracing: probeevent: Introduce new argument fetching codeMasami Hiramatsu
Replace {k,u}probe event argument fetching framework with switch-case based. Currently that is implemented with structures, macros and chain of function-pointers, which is more complicated than necessary and may get a performance penalty by retpoline. This simplify that with an array of "fetch_insn" (opcode and oprands), and make process_fetch_insn() just interprets it. No function pointers are used.
