perf trace: Beautify statx syscall 'flag' and 'mask' arguments
To test it, build samples/statx/test_statx, which I did as:
$ make headers_install
$ cc -I ~/git/linux/usr/include samples/statx/test-statx.c -o /tmp/statx
And then use perf trace on it:
# perf trace -e statx /tmp/statx /etc/passwd
statx(/etc/passwd) = 0
results=7ff

0.000 ( 0.009 ms): statx(dfd: CWD, filename: 0xfa37f3f3, flags: SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW|STATX_DONT_SYNC, mask: BTIME, buffer: 0x7ffffa37da20) = 0
#
Adding a probe to get the filename collected as well:
# perf probe 'vfs_getname=getname_flags:72 pathname=result->name:string'
Added new event:
probe:vfs_getname (on getname_flags:72 with pathname=result->name:string)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:vfs_getname -aR sleep 1
# trace --no-inherit -e statx /tmp/statx -D -O /etc/passwd > /dev/null
0.169 ( 0.007 ms): statx(dfd: CWD, filename: /etc/passwd, flags: SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW|STATX_DONT_SYNC, mask: BTIME, buffer: 0x7ffda9bf50f0) = 0
#
Same technique could be used to collect and beautify the result put in
the 'buffer' argument.
Finally do a system wide 'perf trace' session looking for any use of statx,
then run the test proggie with various flags:
# trace -e statx
16612.967 ( 0.028 ms): statx/4562 statx(dfd: CWD, filename: /tmp/statx, flags: SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW, mask: TYPE|MODE|NLINK|UID|GID|ATIME|MTIME|CTIME|INO|SIZE|BLOCKS|BTIME, buffer: 0x7ffef195d660) = 0

36050.891 ( 0.023 ms): statx/4576 statx(dfd: CWD, filename: /tmp/statx, flags: SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW, mask: BTIME, buffer: 0x7ffeb18b66e0) = 0

^C#
This one also starts moving the beautifiers from files directly included
in builtin-trace.c to separate objects + a beauty.h header with
prototypes, so that we can add test cases in tools/perf/tests/ to fire
syscalls with various arguments and then get them intercepted as
syscalls:sys_enter_foo or raw_syscalls:sys_enter + sys_exit to then
format and check that the formatted output is the one we expect.
