An sdt probe can be associated with arguments but they were not passed to the user probe tracing interface (uprobe_events); this patch adapts the sdt argument descriptors according to the uprobe input format. As the uprobe parser does not support scaled address mode, perf will skip arguments which cannot be adapted to the uprobe format. Here are the results: $ perf buildid-cache -v --add test_sdt $ perf probe -x test_sdt sdt_libfoo:table_frob $ perf probe -x test_sdt sdt_libfoo:table_diddle $ perf record -e sdt_libfoo:table_frob -e sdt_libfoo:table_diddle test_sdt $ perf script test_sdt ... 666.255678: sdt_libfoo:table_frob: (4004d7) arg0=0 arg1=0 test_sdt ... 666.255683: sdt_libfoo:table_diddle: (40051a) arg0=0 arg1=0 test_sdt ... 666.255686: sdt_libfoo:table_frob: (4004d7) arg0=1 arg1=2 test_sdt ... 666.255689: sdt_libfoo:table_diddle: (40051a) arg0=3 arg1=4 test_sdt ... 666.255692: sdt_libfoo:table_frob: (4004d7) arg0=2 arg1=4 test_sdt ... 666.255694: sdt_libfoo:table_diddle: (40051a) arg0=6 arg1=8 Signed-off-by: Alexis Berlemont <alexis.berlemont@gmail.com> Acked-by: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org> Cc: Alexander Shishkin <alexander.shishkin@linux.intel.com> Cc: Hemant Kumar <hemant@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Ravi Bangoria <ravi.bangoria@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20161214000732.1710-3-alexis.berlemont@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
