<id>urn:sha1:f3cf7fa963c46391da54a0e50f54c089c9b4c450</id>
<content type='text'>
That helps us not to lose new protocol families when they are
introduced, replacing that hardcoded, dated family-&gt;string table.

To recap what this allows us to do:

  # perf trace -e syscalls:sys_enter_socket/max-stack=10/ --filter=family==INET --max-events=1
     0.000 fetchmail/41097 syscalls:sys_enter_socket(family: INET, type: DGRAM|CLOEXEC|NONBLOCK, protocol: IP)
                                       __GI___socket (inlined)
                                       reopen (/usr/lib64/libresolv-2.31.so)
                                       send_dg (/usr/lib64/libresolv-2.31.so)
                                       __res_context_send (/usr/lib64/libresolv-2.31.so)
                                       __GI___res_context_query (inlined)
                                       __GI___res_context_search (inlined)
                                       _nss_dns_gethostbyname4_r (/usr/lib64/libnss_dns-2.31.so)
                                       gaih_inet.constprop.0 (/usr/lib64/libc-2.31.so)
                                       __GI_getaddrinfo (inlined)
                                       [0x15cb2] (/usr/bin/fetchmail)
  #

More work is still needed to allow for the more natura strace-like
syscall name usage instead of the trace event name:

  # perf trace -e socket/max-stack=10,family==INET/ --max-events=1

I.e. to allow for modifiers to follow the syscall name and for logical
expressions to be accepted as filters to use with that syscall, be it as
trace event filters or BPF based ones.

Using -v we can see how the trace event filter is built:

  # perf trace -v -e syscalls:sys_enter_socket/call-graph=dwarf/ --filter=family==INET --max-events=2
  &lt;SNIP&gt;
  New filter for syscalls:sys_enter_socket: (family==0x2) &amp;&amp; (common_pid != 41384 &amp;&amp; common_pid != 2836)
  &lt;SNIP&gt;

  $ tools/perf/trace/beauty/socket.sh | grep -w 2
	[2] = "INET",

<title>perf trace beauty: Add script to autogenerate socket families table</title>

<id>urn:sha1:58277f502f429baee11725ca2d8cb3c43c7a6429</id>
<content type='text'>
To use with 'perf trace', to convert the protocol families to strings,
e.g:

  $ tools/perf/trace/beauty/socket.sh
  static const char *socket_families[] = {
  	[0] = "UNSPEC",
  	[1] = "LOCAL",
  	[2] = "INET",
  	[3] = "AX25",
  	[4] = "IPX",
  	[5] = "APPLETALK",
  	[6] = "NETROM",
  	[7] = "BRIDGE",
  	[8] = "ATMPVC",
  	[9] = "X25",
  	[10] = "INET6",
  	[11] = "ROSE",
  	[12] = "DECnet",
  	[13] = "NETBEUI",
  	[14] = "SECURITY",
  	[15] = "KEY",
  	[16] = "NETLINK",
  	[17] = "PACKET",
  	[18] = "ASH",
  	[19] = "ECONET",
  	[20] = "ATMSVC",
  	[21] = "RDS",
  	[22] = "SNA",
  	[23] = "IRDA",
  	[24] = "PPPOX",
  	[25] = "WANPIPE",
  	[26] = "LLC",
  	[27] = "IB",
  	[28] = "MPLS",
  	[29] = "CAN",
  	[30] = "TIPC",
  	[31] = "BLUETOOTH",
  	[32] = "IUCV",
  	[33] = "RXRPC",
  	[34] = "ISDN",
  	[35] = "PHONET",
  	[36] = "IEEE802154",
  	[37] = "CAIF",
  	[38] = "ALG",
  	[39] = "NFC",
  	[40] = "VSOCK",
  	[41] = "KCM",
  	[42] = "QIPCRTR",
  	[43] = "SMC",
  	[44] = "XDP",
  };
  $

This uses a copy of include/linux/socket.h that is kept in a directory
to be used just for these table generation scripts and for checking if
the kernel has a new file that maybe gets something new for these
tables.

This allows us to:

- Avoid accessing files outside tools/, in the kernel sources, that may
  be changed in unexpected ways and thus break these scripts.

- Notice when those files change and thus check if the changes don't
  break those scripts, update them to automatically get the new
  definitions, a new socket family, for instance.

- Not add then to the tools/include/ where it may end up used while
  building the tools and end up requiring dragging yet more stuff from
  the kernel or plain break the build in some of the myriad environments
  where perf may be built.

This will replace the previous static array in tools/perf/ that was
dated and was already missing the AF_KCM, AF_QIPCRTR, AF_SMC and AF_XDP
families.

The next cset will wire this up to the perf build process.

At some point this must be made into a library to be used in places such
as libtraceevent, bpftrace, etc.

Allow the CC compiler to accept a CFLAGS environment variable.  This
doesn't change the code generated but makes it easier to integrate
running the shell script in build systems like bazel.

Make the architecture test directory agree with the code comment.

Committer notes:

This was split from a larger patch.

The code was assuming the developer always worked from tools/perf/, so make sure we
do the test -d having $toolsdir/perf/arch/$arch, to match the intent expressed in the comment,
just above that loop.

<title>perf beauty sockaddr: Fix augmented syscall format warning</title>

<id>urn:sha1:49e0b6f4e95aa3ade8f512c50d1ccc113fe917b4</id>
<content type='text'>
The sockaddr related examples given in
`tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_syscalls.c` almost always use `long`s
to represent most of their fields.

However, `size_t syscall_arg__scnprintf_sockaddr(..)` has a `scnprintf`
call that uses `"%#x"` as format string.

This throws a warning (whenever the syscall argument is `unsigned
long`).

Added `l` identifier to indicate that the `arg-&gt;value` is an unsigned
long.

Not sure about the complications of this with x86 though.

Add support for the recently added CLONE_CLEAR_SIGHAND flag.

This takes advantage of the copy of the uapi/linux/sched.h we have in
tools/include, which allows us to build tools/perf in older systems and
have the binary support printing that flag whenever that system gets its
kernel updated to one where this feature is present.
