[PATCH v4 0/9] bpf: fprobe: rethook: Use ftrace_regs instead of pt_regs

["Masami Hiramatsu (Google)" <mhiramat@kernel.org>]

Hi,

Here is the 4th version of the series to use ftrace_regs instead of pt_regs
in fprobe.
The previous version is here;

https://lore.kernel.org/all/169181859570.505132.10136520092011157898.stgit@devnote2/

This version fixes the issues pointed in the previous series; fix document
description, keep CONFIG_FPROBE dependency for multi-kprobe, add
static_assert check for ftrace_regs size, reorder the ftrace_partial_regs()
patch for perf fprobe event support, introduce per-cpu pt_regs stack for
perf fprobe event and add Florent's Ack (Thanks!). Also this adds a new
documentation patch to clarify that the $argN and $retval is best effort.

 - Document fix for the current fprobe callback prototype
 - Simply replace pt_regs in fprobe_entry_handler with ftrace_regs.
 - Expose ftrace_regs even if CONFIG_FUNCTION_TRACER=n.
 - Introduce ftrace_partial_regs(). (This changes ARM64 which needs a custom
   implementation)
 - Replace pt_regs in rethook and fprobe_exit_handler with ftrace_regs. This
   introduce a new HAVE_PT_REGS_TO_FTRACE_REGS_CAST which means ftrace_regs is
   just a wrapper of pt_regs (except for arm64, other architectures do this)
 - Update fprobe-events to use ftrace_regs natively.
 - Update bpf multi-kprobe handler use ftrace_partial_regs().
 - Update document for new fprobe callbacks.
 - Add notes for the $argN and $retval.

This series can be applied against the probes/core branch on linux-trace tree.

This series can also be found below branch.

Thank you,
