Tetsuo,
I cannot reproduce the issue.
The transformation from:
dest = ctx->bx;
to:
dest = *(volatile uint64_t *)&ctx->bx;
should be safe.
I launched a psql console and did a query:
...
yhs=> SELECT order_id FROM order_details;
order_id
----------
6
(1 row)
...
On the usdt side, I did not see anything printout.
I hacked the code to forcefully emit a meaningful string, but it does
not print either. So it looks like the probe function is not called.
int do_start(struct pt_regs *ctx) {
char *cp = NULL;
bpf_usdt_readarg(1, ctx, &cp);
struct { char query[QUERY_MAX]; } data = { };
bpf_probe_read(&data.query, sizeof(data.query), (void *) cp);
data.query[0] = 'a'; data.query[1] = 0;
events.perf_submit(ctx, &data, sizeof(data));
return 0;
};
Could you double check on your side?

Hello.
I noticed that b0f891d129a9b372 ("Force udst ctx->#reg load to be volatile")
broke an USDT probe example shown below.
----------
#!/usr/bin/python
from bcc import BPF, USDT
import sys
import ctypes as ct
def usage():
print("USAGE: usdt PID")
exit()
if len(sys.argv) < 1:
usage()
if sys.argv[1][0:1] == "-":
usage()
pid = int(sys.argv[1])
QUERY_MAX = 504
bpf_text = """
#include <uapi/linux/ptrace.h>
#define QUERY_MAX """ + str(QUERY_MAX) + """
BPF_PERF_OUTPUT(events);
int do_start(struct pt_regs *ctx) {
char *cp = NULL;
bpf_usdt_readarg(1, ctx, &cp);
struct { char query[QUERY_MAX]; } data = { };
bpf_probe_read(&data.query, sizeof(data.query), (void *) cp);
events.perf_submit(ctx, &data, sizeof(data));
return 0;
};
"""
u = USDT(pid=pid)
u.enable_probe(probe="query__start", fn_name="do_start")
b = BPF(text=bpf_text, usdt_contexts=[u])
class Data(ct.Structure):
_fields_ = [ ("query", ct.c_char * QUERY_MAX) ]
def print_event(cpu, data, size):
event = ct.cast(data, ct.POINTER(Data)).contents
print("%s" % (event.query))
b["events"].open_perf_buffer(print_event, page_cnt=64)
while 1:
b.kprobe_poll()
----------
Since bpf_probe_read() no longer reads PostgreSQL query string
passed to query__start event, nothing is printed out.
(Oh, I forgot to check whether cp != NULL.
Maybe it is bpf_usdt_readarg() which got broken?)
