linux-rt-devel tree contains a patch (b1773eac3f29c ("sched: Add support
for lazy preemption")) that adds an extra member to struct trace_entry.
This causes the offset of args field in struct trace_event_raw_sys_enter
be different from the one in struct syscall_trace_enter:
struct trace_event_raw_sys_enter {
struct trace_entry ent; /* 0 12 */
/* XXX last struct has 3 bytes of padding */
/* XXX 4 bytes hole, try to pack */
long int id; /* 16 8 */
long unsigned int args[6]; /* 24 48 */
/* --- cacheline 1 boundary (64 bytes) was 8 bytes ago --- */
char __data[]; /* 72 0 */
/* size: 72, cachelines: 2, members: 4 */
/* sum members: 68, holes: 1, sum holes: 4 */
/* paddings: 1, sum paddings: 3 */
/* last cacheline: 8 bytes */
};
struct syscall_trace_enter {
struct trace_entry ent; /* 0 12 */
/* XXX last struct has 3 bytes of padding */
int nr; /* 12 4 */
long unsigned int args[]; /* 16 0 */
/* size: 16, cachelines: 1, members: 3 */
/* paddings: 1, sum paddings: 3 */
/* last cacheline: 16 bytes */
};
This, in turn, causes perf_event_set_bpf_prog() fail while running bpf
test_profiler testcase because max_ctx_offset is calculated based on the
former struct, while off on the latter:
10488 if (is_tracepoint || is_syscall_tp) {
10489 int off = trace_event_get_offsets(event->tp_event);
10490
10491 if (prog->aux->max_ctx_offset > off)
10492 return -EACCES;
10493 }
What bpf program is actually getting is a pointer to struct
syscall_tp_t, defined in kernel/trace/trace_syscalls.c. This patch fixes
the problem by aligning struct syscall_tp_t with struct
syscall_trace_(enter|exit) and changing the tests to use these structs
to dereference context.

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.
