perf trace: Use the augmented_raw_syscall BPF skel only for tracing syscalls
It is possible to use 'perf trace' with tracepoints and in that case we can't initialize/use the augmented_raw_syscalls BPF skel. For instance, this usecase: # perf trace -e sched:*exec --max-events=5 ? ( ): NetworkManager/1183 ... [continued]: poll()) = 1 0.043 ( 0.007 ms): NetworkManager/1183 epoll_wait(epfd: 17<anon_inode:[eventpoll]>, events: 0x55555f90e920, maxevents: 6) = 0 0.060 ( 0.007 ms): NetworkManager/1183 write(fd: 3<anon_inode:[eventfd]>, buf: 0x7ffc5a27cd30, count: 8) = 8 0.073 ( 0.005 ms): NetworkManager/1183 epoll_wait(epfd: 24<anon_inode:[eventpoll]>, events: 0x7ffc5a27cd20, maxevents: 2) = 1 0.082 ( 0.010 ms): NetworkManager/1183 recvmmsg(fd: 26<socket:[30298]>, mmsg: 0x7ffc5a27caa0, vlen: 8) = 1 # Where we want to trace just some sched tracepoints ending in 'exec' ends up tracing all syscalls. Fix it by checking existing trace->trace_syscalls boolean to see if we need the augmenter. A followup patch will move those sections of code used only with the augmenter to separate functions, to get it cleaner and remove the goto, done just for reviewing purposes. With this patch in place the previous behaviour is restored: no syscalls when we have other events and no syscall names: [root@quaco ~]# perf probe do_filp_open "filename=pathname->name:string" Added new event: probe:do_filp_open (on do_filp_open with filename=pathname->name:string) You can now use it in all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe:do_filp_open -aR sleep 1 [root@quaco ~]# perf trace --max-events=10 -e probe:do_filp_open sleep 1 0.000 sleep/455122 probe:do_filp_open(__probe_ip: -1186560412, filename: "/etc/ld.so.cache") 0.056 sleep/455122 probe:do_filp_open(__probe_ip: -1186560412, filename: "/lib64/libc.so.6") 0.481 sleep/455122 probe:do_filp_open(__probe_ip: -1186560412, filename: "/usr/lib/locale/locale-archive") 0.501 sleep/455122 probe:do_filp_open(__probe_ip: -1186560412, filename: "/usr/share/locale/locale.alias") 0.572 sleep/455122 probe:do_filp_open(__probe_ip: -1186560412, filename: "/usr/lib/locale/en_US.UTF-8/LC_IDENTIFICATION") 0.581 sleep/455122 probe:do_filp_open(__probe_ip: -1186560412, filename: "/usr/lib/locale/en_US.utf8/LC_IDENTIFICATION") 0.616 sleep/455122 probe:do_filp_open(__probe_ip: -1186560412, filename: "/usr/lib64/gconv/gconv-modules.cache") 0.656 sleep/455122 probe:do_filp_open(__probe_ip: -1186560412, filename: "/usr/lib/locale/en_US.UTF-8/LC_MEASUREMENT") 0.664 sleep/455122 probe:do_filp_open(__probe_ip: -1186560412, filename: "/usr/lib/locale/en_US.utf8/LC_MEASUREMENT") 0.696 sleep/455122 probe:do_filp_open(__probe_ip: -1186560412, filename: "/usr/lib/locale/en_US.UTF-8/LC_TELEPHONE") [root@quaco ~]# As well as mixing syscalls with tracepoints, getting the syscall tracepoints used augmented using the BPF skel: [root@quaco ~]# perf trace --max-events=10 -e open*,probe:do_filp_open sleep 1 0.000 ( ): sleep/455124 openat(dfd: CWD, filename: "/etc/ld.so.cache", flags: RDONLY|CLOEXEC) ... 0.005 ( ): sleep/455124 probe:do_filp_open(__probe_ip: -1186560412, filename: "/etc/ld.so.cache") 0.000 ( 0.011 ms): sleep/455124 ...
