Howard Chu b257fac12f perf trace: Pretty print buffer data
Define TRACE_AUG_MAX_BUF in trace_augment.h data, which is the maximum
buffer size we can augment. BPF will include this header too.

Print buffer in a way that's different than just printing a string, we
print all the control characters in \digits (such as \0 for null, and
\10 for newline, LF).

For character that has a bigger value than 127, we print the digits
instead of the character itself as well.

Committer notes:

Simplified the buffer scnprintf to avoid using multiple buffers as
discussed in the patch review thread.

We can't really all 'buf' args to SCA_BUF as we're collecting so far
just on the sys_enter path, so we would be printing the previous 'read'
arg buffer contents, not what the kernel puts there.

So instead of:
   static int syscall_fmt__cmp(const void *name, const void *fmtp)
  @@ -1987,8 +1989,6 @@ syscall_arg_fmt__init_array(struct syscall_arg_fmt *arg, struct tep_format_field
  -               else if (strstr(field->type, "char *") && strstr(field->name, "buf"))
  -                       arg->scnprintf = SCA_BUF;

Do:

static const struct syscall_fmt syscall_fmts[] = {
  +       { .name     = "write",      .errpid = true,
  +         .arg = { [1] = { .scnprintf = SCA_BUF /* buf */, from_user = true, }, }, },

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 reStructuredText 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.
