I think combining raw_tp prog type with raw_tp_writeable is possible,
but too cumbersome to use from user pov.
Since such raw_tp will be accepted at prog load time,
but only at the time of attach it will be rejected in __bpf_probe_register.

raw_tp_writable_prog_is_valid_access() doesn't know future attach point.
we cannot use bpf_attr.expected_attach_type here.
That's why it simply does:
+       if (off == 0 && size == sizeof(u64))
+               info->reg_type = PTR_TO_TP_BUFFER;

essentially hard coding first argument of writeable tp to be the buffer.

TP invocation is also new.
Like in patch 2:
trace_nbd_send_request(&request, nbd->index, blk_mq_rq_from_pdu(cmd));

Patches 1,2,3 actually look fine to me,
but I agree that selftests are necessary.

Matt, could you add new writeable tracepoint somewhere in bpf_test_run()
and corresponding selftest?

Thanks
