2026-10-07kernel/api: add syscall enter/exit tracepointsSasha Levin
Add two tracepoints to the CONFIG_KAPI_RUNTIME_CHECKS syscall validation path so the framework's behavior can be observed without the noise and loss of pr_warn_ratelimited(): kapi_syscall_enter - the spec name, the raw argument values, and a rendered "name=value" list of the specified parameters (pointer-like values in hex, signed integers and file descriptors in decimal) kapi_syscall_exit - the spec name, the return value, and whether it matched the specification (spec_match) Both fire only for syscalls that have a KAPI specification and live inside the existing CONFIG_KAPI_RUNTIME_CHECKS region, so they exist exactly when the runtime checks do; they compile to no-ops without CONFIG_TRACEPOINTS and stay dormant until enabled. The parameter list is rendered only when the enter tracepoint is enabled. kapi_syscall_exit is also emitted on the parameter-validation rejection path -- where the validator returns -EINVAL and the real handler is skipped -- with spec_match=0, so every kapi_syscall_enter has a matching exit.
