Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo b119970aa5 perf trace: Handle raw_syscalls:sys_enter just like the BPF_OUTPUT augmented event
So, we use a PERF_COUNT_SW_BPF_OUTPUT to output the augmented sys_enter
payload, i.e. to output more than just the raw syscall args, and if
something goes wrong when handling an unfiltered syscall, we bail out
and just return 1 in the bpf program associated with
raw_syscalls:sys_enter, meaning, don't filter that tracepoint, in which
case what will appear in the perf ring buffer isn't the BPF_OUTPUT
event, but the original raw_syscalls:sys_enter event with its normal
payload.

Now that we're switching to using a bpf_tail_call +
BPF_MAP_TYPE_PROG_ARRAY we're going to use this in the common case, so a
bug where raw_syscalls:sys_enter wasn't being handled by
trace__sys_enter() surfaced and for  that case, instead of using the
strace-like augmenter (trace__sys_enter()), we continued to use the
normal generic tracepoint handler:

  (gdb) p evsel
  $2 = (struct perf_evsel *) 0xc03e40
  (gdb) p evsel->name
  $3 = 0xbc56c0 "raw_syscalls:sys_enter"
  (gdb) p ((struct perf_evsel *) 0xc03e40)->name
  $4 = 0xbc56c0 "raw_syscalls:sys_enter"
  (gdb) p ((struct perf_evsel *) 0xc03e40)->handler
  $5 = (void *) 0x495eb3 <trace__event_handler>

This resulted in this:

     0.027 raw_syscalls:sys_enter:NR 12 (0, 7fcfcac64c9b, 4d, 7fcfcac64c9b, 7fcfcac6ce00, 19)
     ... [continued]: brk())                = 0x563b88677000

I.e. only the sys_exit tracepoint was being properly handled, but since
the sys_enter went to the generic trace__event_handler() we printed it
using libtraceevent's formatter instead of 'perf trace's strace-like
one.

Fix it by setting trace__sys_enter() as the handler for
raw_syscalls:sys_enter and setup the tp_field tracepoint field
accessors.

Now, to test it we just make raw_syscalls:sys_enter return 1 right after
checking if the pid is filtered, making it not use
bpf_perf_output_event() but rather ask for the tracepoint not to be
filtered and the result is the expected one:

  brk(NULL)                               = 0x556f42d6e000

I.e. raw_syscalls:sys_enter returns 1, gets handled by
trace__sys_enter() and gets it combined with the raw_syscalls:sys_exit
in a strace-like way.
