Subject: [PATCH v2] tracing: precise log info for kretprobe addr err
Date: Wed, 20 Jan 2021 23:56:44 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210120155644.64721-1-Jianlin.Lv@arm.com> (raw)
When trying to create kretprobe with the wrong function symbol in tracefs;
The error is triggered in the register_trace_kprobe() and recorded as
FAIL_REG_PROBE issue,
Example:
$ cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
$ echo 'r:myprobe ERROR_SYMBOL_XXX ret=%x0' >> kprobe_events
bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
$ cat error_log
[142797.347877] trace_kprobe: error: Failed to register probe event
Command: r:myprobe ERROR_SYMBOL_XXX ret=%x0
^
This error can be detected in the parameter parsing stage, the effect of
applying this patch is as follows:
$ echo 'r:myprobe ERROR_SYMBOL_XXX ret=%x0' >> kprobe_events
bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
$ cat error_log
[415.89]trace_kprobe: error: Retprobe address must be an function entry
Command: r:myprobe ERROR_SYMBOL_XXX ret=%x0
^
Signed-off-by: Jianlin Lv <Jianlin.Lv@arm.com>
v2:add !strchr(symbol, ':') to check really bad symbol or not.
