To add a probe as a new event, write a new definition to kprobe_events
as below.
- echo p:myprobe do_sys_open dfd=a0 filename=a1 flags=a2 mode=a3 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events
+ echo p:myprobe do_sys_open dfd=$a0 filename=$a1 flags=$a2 mode=$a3 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events
This sets a kprobe on the top of do_sys_open() function with recording
1st to 4th arguments as "myprobe" event. As this example shows, users can
choose more familiar names for each arguments.
- echo r:myretprobe do_sys_open rv ra >> /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events
+ echo r:myretprobe do_sys_open $rv $ra >> /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events
This sets a kretprobe on the return point of do_sys_open() function with
recording return value and return address as "myretprobe" event.
