tracing/probe: add a char type to show the character value of traced arguments
There are scenes that we want to show the character value of traced arguments other than a decimal or hexadecimal or string value for debug convinience. I add a new type named 'char' to do it and a new test case file named 'kprobe_args_char.tc' to do selftest for char type. For example: The to be traced function is 'void demo_func(char type, char *name);', we can add a kprobe event as follows to show argument values as we want: echo 'p:myprobe demo_func $arg1:char +0($arg2):char[5]' > kprobe_events we will get the following trace log: ... myprobe: (demo_func+0x0/0x29) arg1='A' arg2={'b','p','f','1',''} Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20221219110613.367098-1-dolinux.peng@gmail.com/ Signed-off-by: Donglin Peng <dolinux.peng@gmail.com> Acked-by: Masami Hiramatsu (Google) <mhiramat@kernel.org> Reported-by: kernel test robot <lkp@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu (Google) <mhiramat@kernel.org>
