    perf trace: Augment non-syscall tracepoints with enum arguments with BTF · 607bbdb4
    Howard Chu authored 
    Before:

perf $ ./perf trace -e timer:hrtimer_start --max-events=1
     0.000 :0/0 timer:hrtimer_start(hrtimer: 0xffff974466c25f18, function: 0xffffffff89da5be0, expires: 377432432256753, softexpires: 377432432256753, mode: 10)

After:

perf $ ./perf trace -e timer:hrtimer_start --max-events=1
     0.000 :0/0 timer:hrtimer_start(hrtimer: 0xffff9498a6ca5f18, function: 0xffffffffa77a5be0, expires: 4382442895089, softexpires: 4382442895089, mode: HRTIMER_MODE_ABS_PINNED_HARD)

in which HRTIMER_MODE_ABS_PINNED_HARD is:

perf $ pahole hrtimer_mode
enum hrtimer_mode {
        HRTIMER_MODE_ABS             = 0,
        HRTIMER_MODE_REL             = 1,
        HRTIMER_MODE_PINNED          = 2,
        HRTIMER_MODE_SOFT            = 4,
        HRTIMER_MODE_HARD            = 8,
        HRTIMER_MODE_ABS_PINNED      = 2,
        HRTIMER_MODE_REL_PINNED      = 3,
        HRTIMER_MODE_ABS_SOFT        = 4,
        HRTIMER_MODE_REL_SOFT        = 5,
        HRTIMER_MODE_ABS_PINNED_SOFT = 6,
        HRTIMER_MODE_REL_PINNED_SOFT = 7,
        HRTIMER_MODE_ABS_HARD        = 8,
        HRTIMER_MODE_REL_HARD        = 9,
        HRTIMER_MODE_ABS_PINNED_HARD = 10,
        HRTIMER_MODE_REL_PINNED_HARD = 11,
};

Can also be tested by

./perf trace -e pagemap:mm_lru_insertion,timer:hrtimer_start,timer:hrtimer_init,skb:kfree_skb --max-events=10

(Chose these 4 events because they happen quite frequently.)

However some enum arguments may not be contained in vmlinux BTF. To see
what enum arguments are supported, use:

vmlinux_dir $ bpftool btf dump file /sys/kernel/btf/vmlinux > vmlinux

vmlinux_dir $  while read l; do grep "ENUM '$l'" vmlinux; done < <(grep field:enum /sys/kernel/tracing/events/*/*/format | awk '{print $3}' | sort | uniq) | awk '{print $3}' | sed "s/'\(.*\)'/\1/g"
dev_pm_qos_req_type
error_detector
hrtimer_mode
i2c_slave_event
ieee80211_bss_type
lru_list
migrate_mode
nl80211_auth_type
nl80211_band
nl80211_iftype
numa_vmaskip_reason
pm_qos_req_action
pwm_polarity
skb_drop_reason
thermal_trip_type
xen_lazy_mode
xen_mc_extend_args
xen_mc_flush_reason
zone_type

And what tracepoints have these enum types as their arguments:

vmlinux_dir $ while read l; do grep "ENUM '$l'" vmlinux; done < <(grep field:enum /sys/kernel/tracing/events/*/*/format | awk '{print $3}' | sort | uniq) | awk '{print $3}' | sed "s/'\(.*\)'/\1/g" > good_enums

vmlinux_dir $ cat good_enums
dev_pm_qos_req_type
error_detector
hrtimer_mode
i2c_slave_event
ieee80211_bss_type
lru_list
migrate_mode
nl80211_auth_type
nl80211_band
nl80211_iftype
numa_vmaskip_reason
pm_qos_req_action
pwm_polarity
skb_drop_reason
thermal_trip_type
xen_lazy_mode
xen_mc_extend_args
xen_mc_flush_reason
zone_type
