[PATCH 74/77] perf trace: Setup augmented_args in the raw_syscalls:sys_enter handler

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Date: Wed Sep 05 2018 - 18:08:23 EST


From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@xxxxxxxxxx>

Without using something to augment the raw_syscalls:sys_enter tracepoint
payload with the pointer contents, this will work just like before, i.e.
the augmented_args arg will be NULL and the augmented_args_size will be
0.

This just paves the way for the next cset where we will associate the
trace__sys_enter tracepoint handler with the augmented "bpf-output"
event named "__augmented_args__".
