Currently, bpf programs cannot be attached to sys_enter_* and sys_exit_* style tracepoints. The iovisor/bcc issue #748 (https://github.com/iovisor/bcc/issues/748) documents this issue. For example, if you try to attach a bpf program to tracepoints syscalls/sys_enter_newfstat, you will get the following error: # ./tools/trace.py t:syscalls:sys_enter_newfstat Ioctl(PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_BPF): Invalid argument Failed to attach BPF to tracepoint The main reason is that syscalls/sys_enter_* and syscalls/sys_exit_* tracepoints are treated differently from other tracepoints and there is no bpf hook to it. This patch adds bpf support for these syscalls tracepoints by . permitting bpf attachment in ioctl PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_BPF . calling bpf programs in perf_syscall_enter and perf_syscall_exit The legality of bpf program ctx access is also checked. Function trace_event_get_offsets returns correct max offset for each specific syscall tracepoint, which is compared against the maximum offset access in bpf program.
