When using regular expression matching with "kprobe multi", it scans all
the functions under "/proc/kallsyms" that can be matched. However, not all
of them can be traced by kprobe.multi. If any one of the functions fails
to be traced, it will result in the failure of all functions. The best
approach is to filter out the functions that cannot be traced to ensure
proper tracking of the functions.

But, the addition of these checks will frequently probe whether a function complies with "available_filter_functions" and ensure that it has not been
filtered by kprobe's blacklist. As a result, it may take a longer time
during startup. The function implementation is referenced from BCC's
"kprobe_exists()"

Here is the test eBPF program [1].

so available_filter_functions already contains all traceable symbols
for kprobe_multi/fprobe

kprobes/blacklist is kprobe specific and does not apply to fprobe,
is there a crash when attaching function from kprobes/blacklist ?

No, I haven't got crash before, Simply because BCC's kprobe_exists has
implemented it so I added this, Yes, I also don't think kprobes/blacklist will affect FPROBE, so I will remove it.

I think it'd be better to parse available_filter_functions directly
for kprobe_multi instead of filtering out kallsyms entries

we could add libbpf_available_filter_functions_parse function with
similar callback to go over available_filter_functions file


Sure, if available_filter_functions not found, fallback to /proc/kallsyms.


Um.

It is difficult to judge available_filter_functions directly, because we
not only need the function name, but also obtain its address and other
information, but we can indeed obtain the function set from
available_filter_functions first, and then obtain the function address
from /proc/kallsyms. which will be slightly faster than reading
available_filter_functions later, because if this function does not
exist in available_filter_functions, it will take a long time to read
the entire file.

Of course, it would be better if the kernel directly provided an
available_filter_functions -like file containing function address
information.
