[PATCH v3 0/8] bpf: fprobe: rethook: Use ftrace_regs instead of pt_regs

[Masami Hiramatsu (Google)]

Hi,

Here is the 3rd version of RFC series to use ftrace_regs instead of pt_regs.
The previous version is here;

https://lore.kernel.org/all/169139090386.324433.6412259486776991296.stgit@devnote2/

This also includes the generic part and minimum modifications of arch
dependent code. (e.g. not including rethook for arm64.) This series is based
on the discussion at

https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230801112036.0d4ee60d@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/

This version added some documentation updates, fix typos, fix some build errors
on arm64 and s390, rename config name to HAVE_PT_REGS_TO_FTRACE_REGS_CAST, Use
FTRACE_OPS_FL_SAVE_ARGS in fprobe, add ftrace_regs_get_kernel_stack_nth()
and add check HAVE_REGS_AND_STACK_ACCESS_API=y for ftrace_regs APIs.

 - Document fix for the current fprobe callback prototype
 - Simply replace pt_regs in fprobe_entry_handler with ftrace_regs.
 - Expose ftrace_regs even if CONFIG_FUNCTION_TRACER=n.
 - Replace pt_regs in rethook and fprobe_exit_handler with ftrace_regs. This
   introduce a new HAVE_PT_REGS_TO_FTRACE_REGS_CAST which means ftrace_regs is
   just a wrapper of pt_regs (except for arm64, other architectures do this)
 - Update fprobe-events to use ftrace_regs natively.
 - Introduce ftrace_partial_regs(). (This changes ARM64 which needs a custom
   implementation)
 - Update bpf multi-kprobe handler use ftrace_partial_regs().
 - Update document to new fprobe callbacks.

This series can also be found below branch.

Thank you,
