We don't need the callchains at the syscall enter tracepoint, just when
finishing it at syscall exit, so reduce the overhead by asking for
callchains just at syscall exit.

Now, one can print the call chain for every encountered sys_exit event,
e.g.:
$ perf trace -e nanosleep --call-graph dwarf path/to/ex_sleep
1005.757 (1000.090 ms): ex_sleep/13167 nanosleep(...) = 0
syscall_slow_exit_work ([kernel.kallsyms])
syscall_return_slowpath ([kernel.kallsyms])
int_ret_from_sys_call ([kernel.kallsyms])
__nanosleep (/usr/lib/libc-2.23.so)
[unknown] (/usr/lib/libQt5Core.so.5.6.0)
QThread::sleep (/usr/lib/libQt5Core.so.5.6.0)
main (path/to/ex_sleep)
__libc_start_main (/usr/lib/libc-2.23.so)
_start (path/to/ex_sleep)
Note that it is advised to increase the number of mmap pages to prevent
event losses when using this new feature. Often, adding `-m 10M` to the
`perf trace` invocation is enough.
This feature is also available in strace when built with libunwind via
`strace -k`. Performance wise, this solution is much better:
$ time find path/to/linux &> /dev/null
real 0m0.051s
user 0m0.013s
sys 0m0.037s
$ time perf trace -m 800M --call-graph dwarf find path/to/linux &> /dev/null
real 0m2.624s
user 0m1.203s
sys 0m1.333s
$ time strace -k find path/to/linux &> /dev/null
real 0m35.398s
user 0m10.403s
sys 0m23.173s
Note that it is currently not possible to configure the print output.
Adding such a feature, similar to what is available in `perf script` via
its `--fields` knob can be added later on.

--ev ./test_bpf_trace.c/map:__bpf_stdout__.event=evt/ \
--ev ./test_bpf_trace2.c usleep 100000

Without this patch, it is cumbersome to read the trace output but
ignoring the normal, potentially verbose, output of the debuggee. One
common example is doing something like the following:

Without this patch, the trace summary will be lost. Now, it will still
be printed at the end. This behavior is also applied by strace.

To work like strace and dereference syscall pointer args we need to
insert probes (or tracepoints) right after we copy those bytes from
userspace.
Since we're formatting the syscall args at raw_syscalls:sys_enter time,
we need to have a formatter that just stores the position where, later,
when we get the probe:vfs_getname, we can insert the pointer contents.
Now, if a probe:vfs_getname with this format is in place:
# perf probe -l
probe:vfs_getname (on getname_flags:72@/home/git/linux/fs/namei.c with pathname)
That was, in this case, put in place with:
# perf probe 'vfs_getname=getname_flags:72 pathname=filename:string'
Added new event:
probe:vfs_getname (on getname_flags:72 with pathname=filename:string)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:vfs_getname -aR sleep 1
#
Then 'perf trace' will notice that and do the pointer -> contents
expansion:
# trace -e open touch /tmp/bla
0.165 (0.010 ms): touch/17752 open(filename: /etc/ld.so.cache, flags: CLOEXEC) = 3
0.195 (0.011 ms): touch/17752 open(filename: /lib64/libc.so.6, flags: CLOEXEC) = 3
0.512 (0.012 ms): touch/17752 open(filename: /usr/lib/locale/locale-archive, flags: CLOEXEC) = 3
0.582 (0.012 ms): touch/17752 open(filename: /tmp/bla, flags: CREAT|NOCTTY|NONBLOCK|WRONLY, mode: 438) = 3
#
Roughly equivalent to strace's output:
# strace -rT -e open touch /tmp/bla
0.000000 open("/etc/ld.so.cache", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 <0.000039>
0.000317 open("/lib64/libc.so.6", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 <0.000102>
0.001461 open("/usr/lib/locale/locale-archive", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3 <0.000072>
0.000405 open("/tmp/bla", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_NOCTTY|O_NONBLOCK, 0666) = 3 <0.000055>
0.000641 +++ exited with 0 +++
#
Now we need to either look for at all syscalls that are marked as
pointers and have some well known names ("filename", "pathname", etc)
and set the arg formatter to the one used for the "open" syscall in this
patch.
This implementation works for syscalls with just a string being copied
from userspace, for matching syscalls with more than one string being
copied via the same probe/trace point (vfs_getname) we need to extend
the vfs_getname probe spec to include the pointer too, but there are
some problems with that in 'perf probe' or the kernel kprobes code, need
to investigate before considering supporting multiple strings per
syscall.

appear at probe:vfs_getname time, before raw_syscalls:sys_exit

that in turn drags all the symbol resolving code.
The problem:

Fix it by requiring this function to receive the resolver as a

We use raw_syscalls:sys_{enter,exit} events to show the syscalls, but were
using a rather lazy/inneficient way to implement our 'strace -e' equivalent:
filter out after reading the events in the ring buffer.
Deflect more work to the kernel by appending a filter expression for that,
that, together with the pid list, that is always present, if only to filter the
tracer itself, reduces pressure on the ring buffer and otherwise use
infrastructure already in place in the kernel to do early filtering.
If we use it with -v we can see the filter passed to the kernel,
for instance, for this contrieved case:
# trace -v -e \!open,close,write,poll,recvfrom,select,recvmsg,writev,sendmsg,read,futex,epoll_wait,ioctl,eventfd --filter-pids 2189,2566,1398,2692,4475,4532

Instead of calling perf_evsel__apply_filter straight away, so that
we can, in the next patches, expand the filter with more conditions
before actually calling the ioctl to pass the end result filter to
the kernel.
Now we need to call perf_evlist__apply_filters() after the filter
is completely setup, i.e. do the ioctl calls.
The perf_evlist__apply_filters() method was already in place, because
that is the model for the other tools that receives filters in the
command line: go on setting then in the evsel->filter and only at
the end, after parsing the whole command line, apply them.
We get, as a bonus, a more expressive message that states which
event, if any, failed to have the filter applied to, with an
error message stating what happened.

That we will use to set a filter on raw_syscalls:sys_{enter,exit}
events.

The 'trace' tool was accepting any names passed and just looking if
syscalls returned via the raw_syscalls:* tracepoints were in that list,
leading to it accepting perf events and then never finding any, as those
are not valid syscall names, confusing users.
Fix it by checking each entry in the list using audit_name_to_syscall,
telling the user which entries are invalid and suggesting where to look
for valid syscall names.
E.g:
[root@zoo ~]# trace -e open,foo,bar,close,baz
Error: Invalid syscall bar, baz, foo
Hint: try 'perf list syscalls:sys_enter_*'
Hint: and: 'man syscalls'
[root@zoo ~]#
