This patch allows creating only one BPF program for different 'probe_trace_event'(tev) entries generated by one 'perf_probe_event'(pev) if their prologues are identical. This is done by comparing the argument list of different tev instances, and the maps type of prologue and tev using a mapping array. This patch utilizes qsort to sort the tevs. After sorting, tevs with identical argument lists will be grouped together. Test result: Sample BPF program: #define SEC(NAME) __attribute__((section(NAME), used)) SEC("inlines=no;" "func=SyS_dup? oldfd") int func(void *ctx) { return 1; } It would probe at SyS_dup2 and SyS_dup3, obtaining oldfd as its argument. The following cmdline shows a BPF program being loaded into the kernel by perf: # perf record -e ./test_bpf_arg.c sleep 4 & sleep 1 && ls /proc/$!/fd/ -l | grep bpf-prog Before this patch: # perf record -e ./test_bpf_arg.c sleep 4 & sleep 1 && ls /proc/$!/fd/ -l | grep bpf-prog [1] 24858 lrwx------ 1 root root 64 Nov 14 04:09 3 -> anon_inode:bpf-prog lrwx------ 1 root root 64 Nov 14 04:09 4 -> anon_inode:bpf-prog ... After this patch: # perf record -e ./test_bpf_arg.c sleep 4 & sleep 1 && ls /proc/$!/fd/ -l | grep bpf-prog [1] 25699 lrwx------ 1 root root 64 Nov 14 04:10 3 -> anon_inode:bpf-prog ...
