So, we use a PERF_COUNT_SW_BPF_OUTPUT to output the augmented sys_enter payload, i.e. to output more than just the raw syscall args, and if something goes wrong when handling an unfiltered syscall, we bail out and just return 1 in the bpf program associated with raw_syscalls:sys_enter, meaning, don't filter that tracepoint, in which case what will appear in the perf ring buffer isn't the BPF_OUTPUT event, but the original raw_syscalls:sys_enter event with its normal payload. Now that we're switching to using a bpf_tail_call + BPF_MAP_TYPE_PROG_ARRAY we're going to use this in the common case, so a bug where raw_syscalls:sys_enter wasn't being handled by trace__sys_enter() surfaced and for that case, instead of using the strace-like augmenter (trace__sys_enter()), we continued to use the normal generic tracepoint handler: (gdb) p evsel $2 = (struct perf_evsel *) 0xc03e40 (gdb) p evsel->name $3 = 0xbc56c0 "raw_syscalls:sys_enter" (gdb) p ((struct perf_evsel *) 0xc03e40)->name $4 = 0xbc56c0 "raw_syscalls:sys_enter" (gdb) p ((struct perf_evsel *) 0xc03e40)->handler $5 = (void *) 0x495eb3 <trace__event_handler> This resulted in this: 0.027 raw_syscalls:sys_enter:NR 12 (0, 7fcfcac64c9b, 4d, 7fcfcac64c9b, 7fcfcac6ce00, 19) ... [continued]: brk()) = 0x563b88677000 I.e. only the sys_exit tracepoint was being properly handled, but since the sys_enter went to the generic trace__event_handler() we printed it using libtraceevent's formatter instead of 'perf trace's strace-like one. Fix it by setting trace__sys_enter() as the handler for raw_syscalls:sys_enter and setup the tp_field tracepoint field accessors. Now, to test it we just make raw_syscalls:sys_enter return 1 right after checking if the pid is filtered, making it not use bpf_perf_output_event() but rather ask for the tracepoint not to be filtered and the result is the expected one: brk(NULL) = 0x556f42d6e000 I.e. raw_syscalls:sys_enter returns 1, gets handled by trace__sys_enter() and gets it combined with the raw_syscalls:sys_exit in a strace-like way.
