Add a lightweight tracepoint to monitor UDP send message operations,
similar to the recently introduced tcp_sendmsg_locked() trace event in
commit 0f08335ade712 ("trace: tcp: Add tracepoint for
tcp_sendmsg_locked()")
This implementation uses DECLARE_TRACE instead of TRACE_EVENT to avoid
creating extensive trace event infrastructure and exporting to tracefs,
keeping it minimal and efficient.
Since this patch creates a rawtracepoint, it can be accessed using
standard tracing tools like bpftrace:
rawtracepoint:udp_sendmsg_tp {
...
}
