[PATCH v7 00/10] libtracefs: Facilitate adding and removing kprobes

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Add a tracefs_kprobe_raw() to facilitate adding kprobe events. It's
denoted as "raw" because it still requires knowing the complex format of
a kprobe, but at least it helps with other formats:

 p:[[system/]event] addr fmt

The user only needs to know the "fmt" part above, and not worry about
what file to open, or how to open it.

Also add a tracefs_kprobe_clear() to clear all kprobes and a
tracefs_kprobe_clear_probe() to clear an individual kprobe. Both have a
"force" parameter, that if set, will then try to disable the kprobe in
all instances (including the top) and then remove the kprobe(s).

Changes since v6: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-trace-devel/20210702185616.167778-1-rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx/

 - Fixed some utest cases that used strcmp() when it should have used
   !strcmp().

This should be the last version before I push (I hope!)
