4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
[ Upstream commit 6ab3bc240ade47a0f52bc16d97edd9accbe0024e ]
With a suitably defined "probe:vfs_getname" probe, 'perf trace' can "beautify" its output, so syscalls like open() or openat() can print the "filename" argument instead of just its hex address, like:
$ perf trace -e open -- touch /dev/null [...] 0.590 ( 0.014 ms): touch/18063 open(filename: /dev/null, flags: CREAT|NOCTTY|NONBLOCK|WRONLY, mode: IRUGO|IWUGO) = 3 [...]
The output without such beautifier looks like:
0.529 ( 0.011 ms): touch/18075 open(filename: 0xc78cf288, flags: CREAT|NOCTTY|NONBLOCK|WRONLY, mode: IRUGO|IWUGO) = 3
However, when the vfs_getname probe expands to multiple probes and it is not the first one that is hit, the beautifier fails, as following:
0.326 ( 0.010 ms): touch/18072 open(filename: , flags: CREAT|NOCTTY|NONBLOCK|WRONLY, mode: IRUGO|IWUGO) = 3
Fix it by hooking into all the expanded probes (inlines), now, for instance:
[root@quaco ~]# perf probe -l probe:vfs_getname (on getname_flags:73@fs/namei.c with pathname) probe:vfs_getname_1 (on getname_flags:73@fs/namei.c with pathname) [root@quaco ~]# perf trace -e open* sleep 1 0.010 ( 0.005 ms): sleep/5588 openat(dfd: CWD, filename: /etc/ld.so.cache, flags: RDONLY|CLOEXEC) = 3 0.029 ( 0.006 ms): sleep/5588 openat(dfd: CWD, filename: /lib64/libc.so.6, flags: RDONLY|CLOEXEC) = 3 0.194 ( 0.008 ms): sleep/5588 openat(dfd: CWD, filename: /usr/lib/locale/locale-archive, flags: RDONLY|CLOEXEC) = 3 [root@quaco ~]#
Works, further verified with:
[root@quaco ~]# perf test vfs 65: Use vfs_getname probe to get syscall args filenames : Ok 66: Add vfs_getname probe to get syscall args filenames : Ok 67: Check open filename arg using perf trace + vfs_getname: Ok [root@quaco ~]#
