    tracing: Provide trace events interface for uprobes · f3f096cf
    Srikar Dronamraju 提交于
    Implements trace_event support for uprobes. In its current form
    it can be used to put probes at a specified offset in a file and
    dump the required registers when the code flow reaches the
    probed address.
    
    The following example shows how to dump the instruction pointer
    and %ax a register at the probed text address.  Here we are
    trying to probe zfree in /bin/zsh:
    
     # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/
     # cat /proc/`pgrep  zsh`/maps | grep /bin/zsh | grep r-xp
     00400000-0048a000 r-xp 00000000 08:03 130904 /bin/zsh
     # objdump -T /bin/zsh | grep -w zfree
     0000000000446420 g    DF .text  0000000000000012  Base
     zfree # echo 'p /bin/zsh:0x46420 %ip %ax' > uprobe_events
     # cat uprobe_events
     p:uprobes/p_zsh_0x46420 /bin/zsh:0x0000000000046420
     # echo 1 > events/uprobes/enable
     # sleep 20
     # echo 0 > events/uprobes/enable
     # cat trace
     # tracer: nop
     #
     #           TASK-PID    CPU#    TIMESTAMP  FUNCTION
     #              | |       |          |         |
