First, I hope you are fine and the same for your relatives. With this contribution, I enabled using syscalls:sys_exit_execve and syscalls:sys_exit_execveat as tracepoints on arm64. Indeed, before this contribution, the above tracepoint would not print their information as syscall number was set to -1 by calling forget_syscall(). I tested it by compiling a kernel for arm64 and running it within a VM: # Perf was compiled with linux kernel source. root@vm-arm64:~# perf record -ag -e 'syscalls:sys_exit_execve' -e 'syscalls:sys_enter_execve' & [1] 263 root@vm-arm64:~# ls perf.data share root@vm-arm64:~# fg perf record -ag -e 'syscalls:sys_exit_execve' -e 'syscalls:sys_enter_execve' ^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.061 MB perf.data (2 samples) ] root@vm-arm64:~# perf script bash 264 [000] 66.220187: syscalls:sys_enter_execve: filename: 0xaaab05d9d ... # Below line does not appear without this patch. ls 264 [000] 66.226848: syscalls:sys_exit_execve: 0x0 ... Forgetting the syscall number before starting a new thread was confirmed to be a bug [1]. Particularly, the following architectures do not forget the syscall number before starting a new thread: * arm (32 bits) EABI: start_thread() sets r7 to previous r7 for ELF FDPIC and to 0 for other binfmts [2]. * arm (32 bits) OABI: syscall number is set to -1 if ptrace_report_syscall_entry() failed [3]. * mips: start_thread() does not modify current_thread_info->syscall which is taken directly from v0 [4, 5]. * riscv: start_thread() does not modify a7 [6]. * x86_64: start_thread_common() does not touch orig_ax which seems to contain the syscall number [7]. If you see any way to improve this contribution, feel free to share! Change since: v1: * Remove call to forget_syscall() and store previous syscall number in regs->syscallno unconditionnaly.
