Artem Savkov ba8ea72388 bpf: Change syscall_nr type to int in struct syscall_tp_t
linux-rt-devel tree contains a patch (b1773eac3f29c ("sched: Add support
for lazy preemption")) that adds an extra member to struct trace_entry.
This causes the offset of args field in struct trace_event_raw_sys_enter
be different from the one in struct syscall_trace_enter:

struct trace_event_raw_sys_enter {
        struct trace_entry         ent;                  /*     0    12 */

        /* XXX last struct has 3 bytes of padding */
        /* XXX 4 bytes hole, try to pack */

        long int                   id;                   /*    16     8 */
        long unsigned int          args[6];              /*    24    48 */
        /* --- cacheline 1 boundary (64 bytes) was 8 bytes ago --- */
        char                       __data[];             /*    72     0 */

        /* size: 72, cachelines: 2, members: 4 */
        /* sum members: 68, holes: 1, sum holes: 4 */
        /* paddings: 1, sum paddings: 3 */
        /* last cacheline: 8 bytes */
};

struct syscall_trace_enter {
        struct trace_entry         ent;                  /*     0    12 */

        /* XXX last struct has 3 bytes of padding */

        int                        nr;                   /*    12     4 */
        long unsigned int          args[];               /*    16     0 */

        /* size: 16, cachelines: 1, members: 3 */
        /* paddings: 1, sum paddings: 3 */
        /* last cacheline: 16 bytes */
};

This, in turn, causes perf_event_set_bpf_prog() fail while running bpf
test_profiler testcase because max_ctx_offset is calculated based on the
former struct, while off on the latter:

  10488         if (is_tracepoint || is_syscall_tp) {
  10489                 int off = trace_event_get_offsets(event->tp_event);
  10490
  10491                 if (prog->aux->max_ctx_offset > off)
  10492                         return -EACCES;
  10493         }

What bpf program is actually getting is a pointer to struct
syscall_tp_t, defined in kernel/trace/trace_syscalls.c. This patch fixes
the problem by aligning struct syscall_tp_t with struct
syscall_trace_(enter|exit) and changing the tests to use these structs
to dereference context.

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.
