From: "Steven Rostedt (VMware)" <rost...@goodmis.org>
Add '[' ']' syntex to allow to get values indirectly from the arguments.
For example:
echo replenish_dl_entity(s64 dl_se[4]) > function_events
Will get the 4th long long word from the first parameter like an array.

Simple arguments

We use "x64" in order to make sure that the data is displayed in hex.
This is on a x86_64 machine, and we know the pointer sizes are 8 bytes.

+
+Indexing
+========
+
+The pointers of the skb and the dev isn't that interesting. But if we want the
+length "len" field of skb, we could index it with an index operator '[' and
']'.
+
+Using gdb, we can find the offset of 'len' from the sk_buff type:
+
+ $ gdb vmlinux
+ (gdb) printf "%d\n", &((struct sk_buff *)0)->len
+128
+
+As 128 / 4 (length of int) is 32, we can see the length of the skb with:
+
+ # echo 'ip_rcv(int skb[32], x64 dev)' > function_events
+
+ # echo 1 > events/functions/ip_rcv/enable
+ # cat trace
+ <idle>-0 [003] ..s3 280.167137:

+Now we see the length of the sk_buff per event.
