tracing/probes: Support $argN in return probe (kprobe and fprobe)
[ Upstream commit 25f00e40ce7953db197af3a59233711d154c9d80 ] Support accessing $argN in the return probe events. This will help users to record entry data in function return (exit) event for simplfing the function entry/exit information in one event, and record the result values (e.g. allocated object/initialized object) at function exit. For example, if we have a function `int init_foo(struct foo *obj, int param)` sometimes we want to check how `obj` is initialized. In such case, we can define a new return event like below; # echo 'r init_foo retval=$retval param=$arg2 field1=+0($arg1)' >> kprobe_events Thus it records the function parameter `param` and its result `obj->field1` (the dereference will be done in the function exit timing) value at once. This also support fprobe, BTF args and'$arg*'. So if CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF is enabled, we can trace both function parameters and the return value by following command. # echo 'f target_function%return $arg* $retval' >> dynamic_events Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/170952365552.229804.224112990211602895.stgit@devnote2/ Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu (Google) <mhiramat@kernel.org> Stable-dep-of: 373b9338c972 ("uprobe: avoid out-of-bounds memory access of fetching args") Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
