Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 4cae8675ea perf augmented_raw_syscalls: Tell which args are filenames and how many bytes to copy
Since we know what args are strings from reading the syscall
descriptions in tracefs and also already mark such args to be beautified
using the syscall_arg__scnprintf_filename() helper, all we need is to
fill in this info in the 'syscalls' BPF map we were using to state which
syscalls the user is interested in, i.e. the syscall filter.

Right now just set that with PATH_MAX and unroll the syscall arg in the
BPF program, as the verifier isn't liking something clang generates when
unrolling the loop.

This also makes the augmented_raw_syscalls.c program support all arches,
since we removed that set of defines with the hard coded syscall
numbers, all should be automatically set for all arches, with the
syscall id mapping done correcly.

Doing baby steps here, i.e. just the first string arg for a syscall is
printed, syscalls with more than one, say, the various rename* syscalls,
need further work, but lets get first something that the BPF verifier
accepts before increasing the complexity

To test it, something like:

 # perf trace -e string -e /home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_raw_syscalls.c

With:

  # cat ~/.perfconfig
  [llvm]
	dump-obj = true
	clang-opt = -g
  [trace]
	#add_events = /home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_raw_syscalls.c
	show_zeros = yes
	show_duration = no
	no_inherit = yes
	show_timestamp = no
	show_arg_names = no
	args_alignment = 40
	show_prefix = yes
  #

That commented add_events line is needed for developing this
augmented_raw_syscalls.c BPF program, as if we add it via the
'add_events' mechanism so as to shorten the 'perf trace' command lines,
then we end up not setting up the -v option which precludes us having
access to the bpf verifier log :-\

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
