    perf trace beautify ioctl: Beautify vhost virtio ioctl's 'cmd' arg · ec6dd85f
    Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
    Also trying a new approach, using a copy of uapi/linux/vhost.h we auto
    generate the string tables, then include it in the ioctl cmd beautifier.
    
    This way either the KVM developers will add the new commands to the
    tools/ copy, like is happening with other areas of tools/include/ (bpf.h
    comes to mind), or we'll be notified when building perf that our copy
    drifted.
    
    E.g., doing syswide tracing grepping for the newly beautified VHOST
    ioctls:
    
      # perf trace -e ioctl 2>&1 | grep VHOST

    ^C
    
     '-e ioctl' uses tracepoint filters, in time this will be replaces by
    eBPF filters hooked at the syscall tracepoints and that "grep VHOST"
    will also be done with eBPF, right at the kernel, to reduce overhead.
