Start on a new library (libsysdecode) that provides routines for decoding system call information such as system call arguments. Initially this will consist of pulling duplicated code out of truss and kdump though it may prove useful for other utilities in the future. This commit moves the shared utrace(2) record parser out of kdump into the library and updates kdump and truss to use it. One difference from the previous version is that the library version treats unknown events that start with the "RTLD" signature as unknown events. This simplifies the interface and allows the consumer to decide how to handle all non-recognized events. Instead, this function only generates a string description for known malloc() and RTLD records. Reviewed by: bdrewery Differential Revision: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D4537

.Nd produce text description of a utrace record
.Sh LIBRARY
.Lb libsysdecode
.Sh SYNOPSIS
Move mksubr from kdump into libsysdecode. Restructure this script so that it generates a header of tables instead of a source file. The tables are included in a flags.c source file which provides functions to decode various system call arguments. For functions that decode an enumeration, the function returns a pointer to a string for known values and NULL for unknown values. For functions that do more complex decoding (typically of a bitmask), the function accepts a pointer to a FILE object (open_memstream() can be used as a string builder) to which decoded values are written. If the function operates on a bitmask, the function returns true if any bits were decoded or false if the entire value was valid. Additionally, the third argument accepts a pointer to a value to which any undecoded bits are stored. This pointer can be NULL if the caller doesn't care about remaining bits. Convert kdump over to using decoder functions from libsysdecode instead of mksubr. truss also uses decoders from libsysdecode instead of private lookup tables, though lookup tables for objects not decoded by kdump remain in truss for now. Eventually most of these tables should move into libsysdecode as the automated table generation approach from mksubr is less stale than the static tables in truss. Some changes have been made to truss and kdump output: - The flags passed to open() are now properly decoded in that one of O_RDONLY, O_RDWR, O_WRONLY, or O_EXEC is always included in a decoded mask. - Optional arguments to open(), openat(), and fcntl() are only printed in kdump if they exist (e.g. the mode is only printed for open() if O_CREAT is set in the flags). - Print argument to F_GETLK/SETLK/SETLKW in kdump as a pointer, not int. - Include all procctl() commands. - Correctly decode pipe2() flags in truss by not assuming full open()-like flags with O_RDONLY, etc. - Decode file flags passed to *chflags() as file flags (UF_* and SF_*) rather than as a file mode. - Fix decoding of quotactl() commands by splitting out the two command components instead of assuming the raw command value matches the primary command component. In addition, truss and kdump now build without triggering any warnings. All of the sysdecode manpages now include the required headers in the synopsis.

.Ft int
.Fn sysdecode_utrace "FILE *fp" "void *buf" "size_t len" "int decimal"
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Fn sysdecode_utrace
function outputs a textual representation of a
.Xr utrace 2
record identified by
.Fa buf
and
.Fa len
to the output stream
.Fa fp .
.Pp
The function only outputs a representation for certain types of records.
If a record is recognized,
the function outputs the description and returns a non-zero value.
If the record is not recognized,
the function does not output anything and returns zero.
The
.Fn sysdecode_utrace
function currently recognizes
.Xr utrace 2
records generated by
.Xr malloc 3
and
.Xr rtld 1 .
.Sh RETURN VALUES
The
.Fn sysdecode_utrace
function returns a non-zero value if it recognizes a
.Xr utrace 2
record;
otherwise it returns zero.
.Sh SEE ALSO
.Xr utrace 2 ,
.Xr sysdecode 3
