Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo fd5cead23f perf trace: Beautify statx syscall 'flag' and 'mask' arguments
To test it, build samples/statx/test_statx, which I did as:

  $ make headers_install
  $ cc -I ~/git/linux/usr/include samples/statx/test-statx.c -o /tmp/statx

And then use perf trace on it:

  # perf trace -e statx /tmp/statx /etc/passwd
  statx(/etc/passwd) = 0
  results=7ff

     0.000 ( 0.007 ms): statx/30648 statx(dfd: CWD, filename: 0x7ef503f4, flags: SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW, mask: TYPE|MODE|NLINK|UID|GID|ATIME|MTIME|CTIME|INO|SIZE|BLOCKS|BTIME, buffer: 0x7fff7ef4eb10) = 0
  #

Using the test-stat.c options to change the mask:

  # perf trace -e statx /tmp/statx -O /etc/passwd > /dev/null
     0.000 ( 0.008 ms): statx/30745 statx(dfd: CWD, filename: 0x3a0753f4, flags: SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW, mask: BTIME, buffer: 0x7ffd3a0735c0) = 0
  #
  # perf trace -e statx /tmp/statx -A /etc/passwd > /dev/null
     0.000 ( 0.010 ms): statx/30757 statx(dfd: CWD, filename: 0xa94e63f4, flags: SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW|NO_AUTOMOUNT, mask: TYPE|MODE|NLINK|UID|GID|ATIME|MTIME|CTIME|INO|SIZE|BLOCKS|BTIME, buffer: 0x7ffea94e49d0) = 0
  #
  # trace --no-inherit -e statx /tmp/statx -F /etc/passwd > /dev/null
     0.000 ( 0.011 ms): statx(dfd: CWD, filename: 0x3b02d3f3, flags: SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW|STATX_FORCE_SYNC, mask: TYPE|MODE|NLINK|UID|GID|ATIME|MTIME|CTIME|INO|SIZE|BLOCKS|BTIME, buffer: 0x7ffd3b02c850) = 0
  #
  # trace --no-inherit -e statx /tmp/statx -F -L /etc/passwd > /dev/null
     0.000 ( 0.008 ms): statx(dfd: CWD, filename: 0x15cff3f3, flags: STATX_FORCE_SYNC, mask: TYPE|MODE|NLINK|UID|GID|ATIME|MTIME|CTIME|INO|SIZE|BLOCKS|BTIME, buffer: 0x7fff15cfdda0) = 0
  #
  # trace --no-inherit -e statx /tmp/statx -D -O /etc/passwd > /dev/null
     0.000 ( 0.009 ms): statx(dfd: CWD, filename: 0xfa37f3f3, flags: SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW|STATX_DONT_SYNC, mask: BTIME, buffer: 0x7ffffa37da20) = 0
  #

Adding a probe to get the filename collected as well:

  # perf probe 'vfs_getname=getname_flags:72 pathname=result->name:string'
  Added new event:
    probe:vfs_getname    (on getname_flags:72 with pathname=result->name:string)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

	  perf record -e probe:vfs_getname -aR sleep 1

  # trace --no-inherit -e statx /tmp/statx -D -O /etc/passwd > /dev/null
     0.169 ( 0.007 ms): statx(dfd: CWD, filename: /etc/passwd, flags: SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW|STATX_DONT_SYNC, mask: BTIME, buffer: 0x7ffda9bf50f0) = 0
  #

Same technique could be used to collect and beautify the result put in
the 'buffer' argument.

Finally do a system wide 'perf trace' session looking for any use of statx,
then run the test proggie with various flags:

  # trace -e statx
   16612.967 ( 0.028 ms): statx/4562 statx(dfd: CWD, filename: /tmp/statx, flags: SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW, mask: TYPE|MODE|NLINK|UID|GID|ATIME|MTIME|CTIME|INO|SIZE|BLOCKS|BTIME, buffer: 0x7ffef195d660) = 0
   33064.447 ( 0.011 ms): statx/4569 statx(dfd: CWD, filename: /tmp/statx, flags: SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW|STATX_FORCE_SYNC, mask: TYPE|MODE|NLINK|UID|GID|ATIME|MTIME|CTIME|INO|SIZE|BLOCKS|BTIME, buffer: 0x7ffc5484c790) = 0
   36050.891 ( 0.023 ms): statx/4576 statx(dfd: CWD, filename: /tmp/statx, flags: SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW, mask: BTIME, buffer: 0x7ffeb18b66e0) = 0
   38039.889 ( 0.023 ms): statx/4584 statx(dfd: CWD, filename: /tmp/statx, flags: SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW, mask: TYPE|MODE|NLINK|UID|GID|ATIME|MTIME|CTIME|INO|SIZE|BLOCKS|BTIME, buffer: 0x7fff1db0ea90) = 0
  ^C#

This one also starts moving the beautifiers from files directly included
in builtin-trace.c to separate objects + a beauty.h header with
prototypes, so that we can add test cases in tools/perf/tests/ to fire
syscalls with various arguments and then get them intercepted as
syscalls:sys_enter_foo or raw_syscalls:sys_enter + sys_exit to then
format and check that the formatted output is the one we expect.
