Hi Rowan, thanks for your contribution.

To give some context on the answer, we are currently working to add a 
similar "read_memory" API, but associated to memory callbacks for 
plugins 
(https://lore.kernel.org/qemu-devel/20240724194708.1843704-1-pierrick.bouvier@linaro.org/T/#t).

A key aspect of what you propose here, is that the memory may have 
changed during the write time, and when you read it, while what we 
propose guarantees to track every change correctly.

It's not a bad thing, and both API are definitely complementary. When 
talking to Alex, he was keen to add a global read_memory API (like you 
propose), after we merge the first one.

@Alex: any thought on this?

Regarding your patch, it would be much easier if you could split that in 
different commits. Adding API first, then modify each plugin in a 
different commit. This way, it would be easier to review. I'll make my 
comments in this patch, but for v2, please split those individual 
commits, and a cover letter, describing your changes 
(https://github.com/stefanha/git-publish is a great tool if you want to 
easily push series).

Is it a change left on your side, or a bad diff?

IMHO, it would be better to pass the buffer as a parameter, instead of 
allocating a new one everytime.

bool qemu_plugin_read_memory_vaddr(uint64_t addr, GByteArray *buf, 
size_t len).

See other series, merging an API for getting values read on a memory 
access. It's a better fit to implement this. So I think it's better to 
drop this plugin modification.

Could you add a comment to show what is expected format? From the code, 
with all these loops and ternary expressions, it's not easy to follow.

It's good! I appreciate to see this feature.

Just saw it's a comment we forgot to add when bumping version. Thanks 
for changing it.

I'd like to get the memory callback API merged first - mostly because
that is the API that will absolutely reflect what was loaded or stored
to a given memory location. For precise instrumentation that is the one
to use.

However I agree the ability to read the state of memory outside of loads
and stores is useful especially for something like this. It's not
unreasonable to assume the memory state of arguments going into a
syscall isn't being messed with and it is easier to track pointers and
strings with a more general purpose API.

The registers case certainly does it this way so it makes sense to be
consistent. It also allows the plugins to re-use buffers if it wants and
makes managing lifetime a bit easier.

There was someone on IRC looking to trace system calls in system mode
(by tracking the syscall instruction and reading the registers at the
time). I wonder if we could make this plugin do the right thing in both
modes?

Alex & Pierrick,

Thank you for the feedback! This is my first contribution to QEMU, so I'm glad
it at least passes the initial smell test :)

Will do! Mailing list dev is new to me but I will do a practice run to try and
not mess it up.

Sure, this makes perfect sense. I considered both and picked wrong so not hard
to change.

Ok, will drop this one and keep the modification to the syscalls plugin only as
an example of how to use the API.

I agree, I considered the absolute load/store question and poked around the
code a bit, but I didn't find what looked like a solid way to either:

A) Ensure that all writes are flushed before the read happens (which sounds
like a hefty performance penalty anyway) or
B) Check whether there are outstanding writes and return an error

It sounds like essentially use cases where that level of per-insn write
granularity matters should utilize your upcoming API instead of this one, and I
will add a call-out to the doc of this one to alert users of the potential pitfall.

If you already configured git send-email, git-publish just does all the 
rest for you (collecting reviewers, prepare patches, and send using git 
send-email). In more, it tracks you different versions, so it's pretty 
easy to iterate on a series.
