As Eric reported, the 'reason' field is not presented when trace the
kfree_skb event by perf:
$ perf record -e skb:kfree_skb -a sleep 10
$ perf script
ip_defrag 14605 [021] 221.614303: skb:kfree_skb:
skbaddr=0xffff9d2851242700 protocol=34525 location=0xffffffffa39346b1
reason:
The cause seems to be passing kernel address directly to TP_printk(),
which is not right. As the enum 'skb_drop_reason' is not exported to
user space through TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(), perf can't get the drop reason
string from the 'reason' field, which is a number.
Therefore, we introduce the macro DEFINE_DROP_REASON(), which is used
to define the trace enum by TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(). With the help of
DEFINE_DROP_REASON(), now we can remove the auto-generate that we
introduced in the commit ec43908dd556
("net: skb: use auto-generation to convert skb drop reason to string"),
and define the string array 'drop_reasons'.
Hmmmm...now we come back to the situation that have to maintain drop
reasons in both enum skb_drop_reason and DEFINE_DROP_REASON. But they
are both in dropreason.h, which makes it easier.
After this commit, now the format of kfree_skb is like this:
$ cat /tracing/events/skb/kfree_skb/format
name: kfree_skb
ID: 1524
format:
field:unsigned short common_type; offset:0; size:2; signed:0;
field:unsigned char common_flags; offset:2; size:1; signed:0;
field:unsigned char common_preempt_count; offset:3; size:1; signed:0;
field:int common_pid; offset:4; size:4; signed:1;
field:void * skbaddr; offset:8; size:8; signed:0;
field:void * location; offset:16; size:8; signed:0;
field:unsigned short protocol; offset:24; size:2; signed:0;
field:enum skb_drop_reason reason; offset:28; size:4; signed:0;
print fmt: "skbaddr=%p protocol=%u location=%p reason: %s", REC->skbaddr, REC->protocol, REC->location, __print_symbolic(REC->reason, { 1, "NOT_SPECIFIED" }, { 2, "NO_SOCKET" } ......

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.
