At Linux Plumbers, Andy Lutomirski approached me and pointed out that the function call syscall_get_arguments() implemented in x86 was horribly written and not optimized for the standard case of passing in 0 and 6 for the starting index and the number of system calls to get. When looking at all the users of this function, I discovered that all instances pass in only 0 and 6 for these arguments. Instead of having this function handle different cases that are never used, simply rewrite it to return the first 6 arguments of a system call. This should help out the performance of tracing system calls by ptrace, ftrace and perf.

* .data.nr - filled with system call number or -1
|
|
* .data.args - filled with @maxargs system call arguments

* .data.instruction_pointer - filled with user PC

|
|
* If @target is blocked in a system call, returns zero with @info.data.nr

|
* set to the the call's number and @info.data.args filled in with its

* arguments. Registers not used for system call arguments may not be available

* and it is not kosher to use &struct user_regset calls while the system
|

* call is still in progress. Note we may get this result if @target
|
|
* has finished its system call but not yet returned to user mode, such
|
|
* as when it's stopped for signal handling or syscall exit tracing.
|
|
*
|
|
* If @target is blocked in the kernel during a fault or exception,
|
|
* returns zero with *@info.data.nr set to -1 and does not fill in
|
|
* @info.data.args. If so, it's now safe to examine @target using
|

* &struct user_regset get() calls as long as we're sure @target won't return
|
