[PATCH v3 net-next 2/2] bpf: add support for %s specifier to bpf_trace_printk()

[Alexei Starovoitov]

%s specifier makes bpf program and kernel debugging easier.
To make sure that trace_printk won't crash the unsafe string
is copied into stack and unsafe pointer is substituted.

The following C program:
 #include <linux/fs.h>
int foo(struct pt_regs *ctx, struct filename *filename)
{
  void *name = 0;

  bpf_probe_read(&name, sizeof(name), &filename->name);
  bpf_trace_printk("executed %s\n", name);
  return 0;
}

when attached to kprobe do_execve()
will produce output in /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_pipe :
    make-13492 [002] d..1  3250.997277: : executed /bin/sh
      sh-13493 [004] d..1  3250.998716: : executed /usr/bin/gcc

v1->v2:
use generalized strncpy_from_unsafe() and
fix the case of multiple '%s' per format string.

v2->v3:
no changes
