Subject: [PATCH v6 08/26] perf trace: Stop at internal fields when walking syscall arguments
Date: Mon, 28 Sep 2026 11:25:47 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260928182605.3649015-9-irogers@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260928182605.3649015-1-irogers@google.com>

Since v6.19 syscall tracepoints may end with __data_loc char[] fields
holding user space strings, these aren't syscall arguments.
syscall__scnprintf_args() walks them anyway, printing the extra raw
syscall arguments at those indices under the internal field's name, and
trace__bpf_sys_enter_beauty_map() considers them when building the BPF
beauty map. The internal fields come after the arguments, so stop at the
first one.
