Since find_btf_func_param() abd btf_type_by_id() can return NULL,
the caller must check the return value correctly.

Pull probe fixes from Masami Hiramatsu:

 - fprobe: Add a comment why fprobe will be skipped if another kprobe is
   running in fprobe_kprobe_handler().

 - probe-events: Fix some issues related to fetch-arguments:

    - Fix double counting of the string length for user-string and
      symstr. This will require longer buffer in the array case.

    - Fix not to count error code (minus value) for the total used
      length in array argument. This makes the total used length
      shorter.

    - Fix to update dynamic used data size counter only if fetcharg uses
      the dynamic size data. This may mis-count the used dynamic data
      size and corrupt data.

    - Revert "tracing: Add "(fault)" name injection to kernel probes"
      because that did not work correctly with a bug, and we agreed the
      current '(fault)' output (instead of '"(fault)"' like a string)
      explains what happened more clearly.

    - Fix to record 0-length (means fault access) data_loc data in fetch
      function itself, instead of store_trace_args(). If we record an
      array of string, this will fix to save fault access data on each
      entry of the array correctly.

This reverts commit 2e9906f84fc7c99388bb7123ade167250d50f1c0.

It was turned out that commit 2e9906f84fc7 ("tracing: Add "(fault)"
name injection to kernel probes") did not work correctly and probe
events still show just '(fault)' (instead of '"(fault)"'). Also,
current '(fault)' is more explicit that it faulted.

This also moves FAULT_STRING macro to trace.h so that synthetic
event can keep using it, and uses it in trace_probe.c too.

Pull probes updates from Masami Hiramatsu:

 - fprobe: Pass return address to the fprobe entry/exit callbacks so
   that the callbacks don't need to analyze pt_regs/stack to find the
   function return address.

 - kprobe events: cleanup usage of TPARG_FL_FENTRY and TPARG_FL_RETURN
   flags so that those are not set at once.

 - fprobe events:
      - Add a new fprobe events for tracing arbitrary function entry and
        exit as a trace event.
      - Add a new tracepoint events for tracing raw tracepoint as a
        trace event. This allows user to trace non user-exposed
        tracepoints.
      - Move eprobe's event parser code into probe event common file.
      - Introduce BTF (BPF type format) support to kernel probe (kprobe,
        fprobe and tracepoint probe) events so that user can specify
        traced function arguments by name. This also applies the type of
        argument when fetching the argument.
      - Introduce '$arg*' wildcard support if BTF is available. This
        expands the '$arg*' meta argument to all function argument
        automatically.
      - Check the return value types by BTF. If the function returns
        'void', '$retval' is rejected.
      - Add some selftest script for fprobe events, tracepoint events
        and BTF support.
      - Update documentation about the fprobe events.
      - Some fixes for above features, document and selftests.

 - selftests for ftrace (in addition to the new fprobe events):
      - Add a test case for multiple consecutive probes in a function
        which checks if ftrace based kprobe, optimized kprobe and normal
        kprobe can be defined in the same target function.
      - Add a test case for optimized probe, which checks whether kprobe
        can be optimized or not.

To hide the first dummy 'data' argument on the tracepoint probe events,
the BTF argument array was modified (skip the first argument for tracepoint),
but the '$arg*' meta argument parser missed that.

Fix to increment the argument index if it is tracepoint probe. And decrement
the index when searching the type of the argument.

Add the '$arg*' meta fetch argument for function-entry probe events. This
will be expanded to the all arguments of the function and the tracepoint
using BTF function argument information.

 #  echo 't sched_overutilized_tp $arg*' &gt;&gt; dynamic_events

Also, single '$arg[0-9]*' will be converted to the BTF function argument.

NOTE: This seems like a wildcard, but a fake one at this moment. This
is just for telling user that this can be expanded to several arguments.
And it is not like other $-vars, you can not use this $arg* as a part of
fetch args, e.g. specifying name "foo=$arg*" and using it in dereferences
"+0($arg*)" will lead a parse error.

Add the '$arg*' meta fetch argument for function-entry probe events. This
will be expanded to the all arguments of the function and the tracepoint
using BTF function argument information.

e.g.
 #  echo 'p vfs_read $arg*' &gt;&gt; dynamic_events
 #  echo 'f vfs_write $arg*' &gt;&gt; dynamic_events
 #  echo 't sched_overutilized_tp $arg*' &gt;&gt; dynamic_events
 # cat dynamic_events
p:kprobes/p_vfs_read_0 vfs_read file=file buf=buf count=count pos=pos
f:fprobes/vfs_write__entry vfs_write file=file buf=buf count=count pos=pos
t:tracepoints/sched_overutilized_tp sched_overutilized_tp rd=rd overutilized=overutilized

<title>tracing/probes: Support function parameters if BTF is available</title>

Support function or tracepoint parameters by name if BTF support is enabled
and the event is for function entry (this feature can be used with kprobe-
events, fprobe-events and tracepoint probe events.)

Note that the BTF variable syntax does not require a prefix. If it starts
with an alphabetic character or an underscore ('_') without a prefix like
'$' and '%', it is considered as a BTF variable.
If you specify only the BTF variable name, the argument name will also
be the same name instead of 'arg*'.

Move trace event parameter fetching code to common parser in
trace_probe.c. This simplifies eprobe's trace-event variable fetching
code by introducing a parse context data structure.
